Overview
Those in the know will say that the Pembroke twins have been active in the East End of London since at least the 1950s, first as ghouls and then later as vampires. Their origins are somewhat unclear, though it is well known that while the embrace certainly didn't help matters, both of the twins were quite thoroughly insane well before their embrace by their sire, the Malkavian elder Cornelius Fitzwarren. Dorian, in particular, is known to be violently unstable, with his moods swinging from quietly introspective to nearly apoplectic rage with apparently little provocation. Dorian is known to operate along the waterfront, where in days gone by, he could often be found carousing with the sailors passing through the Docklands. Less well known, except to those with a finger on the pulse of London's underworld, is that Dorian is an accomplished smuggler and fence and an expert in moving people and goods in and out of the city undetected. The loss of commercial traffic on the Thames since the closure of the docks some years ago made things more complicated, but he still does good business working through the commercial piers and jetties that remain.
