Charismatic, immediately commanding of attention, and intentionally as mysterious as he can be, Joseph is a classic cult leader, wielding enormous influence over a small group of weak-minded followers while he leverages them into real power in the area. Although he is seldom seen in larger Kindred society unless he senses a new person who might be recruited to his cause, he is charming and authoritative when he does socialize, and it's not uncommon for him to be mistaken for a member of a more prestigious clan.
Biography
Mortal Life
Joseph has always been a force in his environment. He recognized his ability to manipulate others early on, getting whatever he wanted in youth and carrying his charismatic powers forward to begin gathering other people to follow him even when he was still a young man. He developed an interest in the occult early in his life thanks to his search for greater power from a source that was not easily controlled by anyone else, and after becoming deeply involved in the study of ancient Egyptian lore and spells, he moved to DC with a small group of like-minded followers in order to gain access to the city's famously varied and obscure library texts.
Once he had arrived, Joseph set up shop as a local cult leader; styling himself the Pharaoh of his new little group, he gained influence among bored dilettantes and counter-culture youth in the area, creating a small pseudo-religion in which orgies, flagellation rituals, and anything else that amused him became the norm. While Joseph did believe that there must be power for the taking somewhere in the ancient Egyptian texts, he didn't believe in the cult's importance beyond a tool or in any other supernatural powers... until he was proven very wrong by the arrival of his sire, Adrienne.
Embrace
Adrienne passed through DC like many other wandering Gangrel, looking for a few easy meals and an interesting direction to go next, but when she happened across Joseph trying a bizarre occult ritual in the woods of Potomac Park, she couldn't resist trying to find out what he was about. She became a "follower" of the cult and eventually his lover as well, exerting an influence over him through her supernatural blood that even he couldn't quite explain, and remained for several months until a particularly orgiastic and energetic ritual saw her accidentally enter a Frenzy and tear his throat out. Contrite, she Embraced him to prevent him from dying and promptly left the city to avoid incurring the Prince's wrath, leaving Joseph as a newborn immortal with a now even more powerful motive to assert his control over others.
Activity in Washington, DC
Joseph continues to cultivate and enlarge his cult following, which has begun gaining some traction as a few members of more politically influential families decide to turn to him for leadership and distraction. There are rumors that Joseph may have contact with the Followers of Set, trading them mysterious favors in return for their knowledge of ancient Egyptian spells and secrets; of course, there is no confirmed Setite presence in DC, but it's undeniable that Joseph has some strange ties to the local underworld that are difficult to explain any other way.
