House Morningstar was a minor house of Clan Ventrue, but has been a rising star among the Blue Bloods for the last 300 years. They held a special significance in the venture machinations, which lends their titles some credence and their advice some weight.

House Morningstar’s reputation was centered around a singular purpose: building bastions of influence around sources of power. The actions of the House's matriarch, Leto, caused her to be placed on the Camarilla's Red List and the House dissolved by the Ventrue Peers.

History[edit | edit source]

House Morningstar was officially founded in 1684 in Paris, France by Leto, through an assembly of her childer. Another Ventrue House had recently fallen into disarray and Leto, on assignment from her sire Ebles le Croisé, was tasked with offering them the Ethic of Succor and performing a buyout of the other House’s assets. This was done with great expedience, and soon thereafter the new House Morningstar began to catalogue and sort the assets they had acquired. Among them were several artifacts of great importance, so Leto through an act of Fealty swore to protect them and keep them in the hands of the Ivory Tower.

In 1714, Leto’s childe Erasmus Dane arrived in the new world, and saw a great opportunity to perform the House’s works on the small island called Caliburn off the coast of Massachusetts. There he built a fortress called The Chateau and, over the centuries, created a power base of Ventrue which was the admiration of the clan. For these works Leto was rewarded, her house being held in high esteem even as a minor house.
