Y Raphael, in a moment of lucidity, proclaimed that Ezekiel’s future would shine like a dying star. Ezekiel’s early existence was spent under the wise tutelage of the Librarians; he learned the ways of the Sabbat and Cainite history. When his studies permitted, he followed his sire, learning the ways of power. Sangris was more than a father or mentor; he was the embodiment of power and destiny for the young Serpent. Sangris, aware of his childe’s almost unnatural ambition and adoration, forced him to join the Black Hand to protect the childe against demonic influence. The night Ezekiel departed for his training in the Black Hand was the last time he saw Sangris as Archbishop of Montreal. As a member of the Black Hand, Ezekiel accepted a number of suicide missions and earned a name for himself as a ruthless fighter and shrewd leader. Ezekiel, Soldat and their Black Hand circle were responsible for destroying a number of Chicago elders during the Sabbat-LupineCamarilla war in the early ‘90s. After the war, Ezekiel lhim at a disadvantage. He only knows who the major players are and isn’t aware of others’ subtle schemes. Ezekiel suspects that DeSoto, the former inquisitor, wants to destroy him as DeSoto did his sire. Both Soldat and Pierre Bellemare are interested in seeing Ezekiel prosper, but are unaware of the other’s influence over Ezekiel. This deadlock has allowed Ezekiel to forge his own path. If pride does not blind him, his future in the Sabbat may be bright.
