The stain glass windows and the Gothic type structure of the building reminds people of the old Gothic churches but indeed it is not. Abandoned a long time ago this Mansion contains catacombs secret rooms and almost an unending maze of halls under the Base of this dark building. A perfect place for Vampires to live and commerce without being disturbed.

Cooks set the newcomer down on the steps leading to the mansion.
Clip smiled and threw his arms wide. "Welcome to our home."

Valan was a little shaky on his legs, but looked around in bewilderment.
"Isnt this a little...i dont know...scrungy for a base?" He asked, staring at the walls and the boarded up windows. The ivy covered walls told the story themselves.

Clip smiiled. "We are basically a bunch of rufeans but you have to wait till you get to the basement We poured all our first five years of earnings into it. It's is worthy of god.....well Arch angel and a bunch of kids to be more precise....believe me what ever you are looking for will be down there."

Valan shrugged in acceptance.
"From what I've seen, I'm ready to believe anything. Lead the way, oh glorious leader." He spoke this last to cooks, winking at her.

Cooks pointed at Clip. "I am no where near as responsible as him that's why my room is full of cotton candy and sweets."
And Clip Raised a finger while his back was turn him going up there stairs. "And if you are thinking about calling me fearless leader don't, I think it mocks us."
Cooks waited to see if Valan needed help still,

Valan grinned at Clip's back. He had thought about it, but since Clip warned him, he wouldnt say it. He squared his shoulders and climbed the stairs after Clip, determined that he would do this himself, although his legs shook slightly every time he stepped up. He followed Clip up the stairs and inside.

As Valan walked past, he leaned down and whispered,
"Thank you." He continued to follow Clip, feeling more and more tired as the moments passed. He would need more rest, and soon.

Clip nodded his shook his head as they got to the stairs. "You know if you're tired just ask some one for their shoulder if you are too stubborn to be carried. We have quite a bit of stairs to do here,"
Fritz stood next to him she was really the tallest one there besides Clip but Clp had only two inches on her.She smiled at him. "You know shift you down stairs but Clip believes that we should do things without powers here because they may not always be there in the end." Fritz adjusted her hat. "But I sure can give you a shoulder to lean on."

Valan wasn't sure if he should feel insulted by Clip or grateful to him, and decided that grateful was the better option. So he turned to Fritz and nodded.
"Thanks, that would be helpful. If there are that many stairs, I'm probably going to need it."

Frits saw the look Valan had and leaned up agains him. "Don't worry he'll warm up to you , his methodes may be hard but they are respectful." She took his arma dn threw it over her shoulder, she reached up with her left and held that arm against her chest not seeming to care where his arm was pressing against. She then wrapped her other arm around his waist waiting for him to make the first step.

Valan was startled for a second when she pressed the arm over her shoulder to her chest, but didn't deem it wise to say anything. Instead, he let her help him down the stairs as he followed Clip, thinking about what she had said. He did seem to be the more militaristic, won't-take-any-crap kind of leader, yet one who respected those he led for themselves. Valan didn't think he would have any problems working under Clip, and in fact decided that it might be quite enjoyable. There didn't seem to be anything to look at, so instead, his mind involuntarily turned towards the woman helping him down the stairs, and to his new comrades, as he considered each in turn.

Fritz smiled as the walked down the stairs. "So do you have any family?"
Clip opened a door in the middle of the stairs that seemed it would be the end but when it opened more stairs were seen it seemed whoever built this place liked toying with people.

Valan tensed as she asked the question, then relaxed. It was a valid question, she wouldnt have known.
"No."
The answer was short, and clipped, as if he didnt want to talk about it, but after a moment he continued.
"They were killed by a raiding band of mercs. For no reason, either. Im still looking for the leader of the band, but I dont have any leads as of yet."
