Inconnu Steward
Rank · Vampire
An Inconnu Steward is a receiver of knowledge, both receptacle and defender of the gathered wisdom of the Inconnu. These vampires coordinate small meetings of the Inconnu, keep letters and records of various attempts at Golconda, and provide asylum for those members of the society who are being hunted or maligned for their quest. This is an extraordinarily dangerous job, as the Inconnu comprise Kindred who hide in many Sects, and a Steward might be asked for safe haven for an Inconnu who is a member of the Camarilla, or of the Sabbat; an Anarch or an Autarkis. Such political complications mean nothing, so long as the individual is dedicated to the quest. Stewards tend to live in unpopulated areas, as they need to hide their visitors from prying eyes.
Stewards manage smaller libraries that contain a portion of thaumaturgic lore. On occasion, a Steward will be given sealed documents containing fragments of thaumaturgic lore and ritual; fragments which are useless without the rest of the information. The Stewards are expected to keep these fragments safe. In the event of the Council’s death, or the destruction of the main library of the Inconnu, the Stewards are to gather and sort through the information, putting the lore back together again. The Council of Twelve hopes that by keeping their knowledge preserved in portions, they keep it safe — both from their enemies and their lessers in the society.
