Christoph leaves puzzled looks and some women panting.

Personality
Quotes:
"The artist wasn't trying to convey personal sadness, but sadness for the state of society. And the subtle use of green here wasn't on accident. It was showing the negative effect of a money system on the mortal soul. The painting says, 'Compassion, guilt, and greed can all be affected by currency.'"

"I had a vision last night of a bull goring a businessman at his desk. Better go ahead and sell those tech stock accounts on the NASDAQ and buy more stable stocks on the DOW. Keep them for the next couple of days, then get back with me."

"Mr. Kensington, not everyone gets free tickets for airline of life. Some of us have to work for our travels and ration out our air miles. If you abide by my rules and do well, I'll make sure you fly first class. You do average, you fly coach with the common folk. Don't piss me off, and I'll promise you won't get any one way trips. Understood?"

"Jenn, please come to my little party. It won't be any fun without you. You had fun last time. This time you must promise me that you won't over-indulge. You were very pale the next morning at my last gathering."

Story
Christopher Bennett was born in 1690. Christoph was of English noble blood and thus sent to different schools to give him a well-rounded education. He excelled at business, but always held the arts close to his heart. He loved instruments, but insisted that the human voice was the most beautiful of all instruments. He plays piano, but prefers violin. He claims he prefers its more organic "voice".

When Christoph set up his haven in Gotham, he rooted himself deeply into its economy. He holds a tight grip on banking in Gotham, and makes it difficult, if not impossible, for competition to squeeze in. His skills in finance rival that of most Ventrue, and his ballroom etiquette is flawless when he wants it to be. Business deals with the Ventrue have kept Christoph's holdings secure. Although don't assume that he only caters to them. Monetary resources have been distributed to the Toreador for various art exhibits and to other kindred, as well.

Christoph built up his resources and influence over the years, eventually becoming Malkavian Primogen.
