If I remember, S spent the years immediately following the Requiem studying the Shroud. We know she had a daughter who was lost toward that end, and who winds up a ghoul in Necropolis. What else do we know about her? Do we know anything at all about the daughter, such as how old she was? For the more numerically minded, any suggestions for how S should be stated out? Do stats for her already exist on the forum somewhere?
Azalin's cloning project always struck me as an interesting element, but a difficult one to bring to the players' attention in any way that would be relevant in a game (Death was a clone of Azalin...it's interesting, but why does it matter?). I've tried to use it before in a campaign that barely got off the ground. Having the players discover a link between Death and their employer during the course of the investigation would be interesting, and it would open up the chance for me to re-use a few ideas from that prior campaign.
Having the players run into a few other clones in the course of the campaign seems like the best way to seed initial suspicions. But Dachine isn't around for visual comparison anymore (and apart from royal portraits of his public face, neither is Azalin as of the campaign start). Aside from S and Lowellyn Dachine, are there any other canon clones of Azalin? Any in the netbooks? Apart from the Requiem trilogy and Gaz II, is there any hard information on the details of Azalin's cloning project? As far as I remember there wasn't much besides a line or two in Death/Dachine's descriptions, which is a shame.
I do have one idea for an original clone (the Dollmaker), and would be open for ideas and suggestions as to others.
The Dollmaker (trigger warning for creepy doll imagery and for children dying horribly)
