Structure

The Stockholm Camarilla is ruled by the Prince which delegates leadership to local leaders of city districts. This way, the Prince doesn't have to deal with local problems unless they are serious threats to the peace. As support, the Prince has the various clan Primogens as his advisors as well as positions such as Sheriffs to enforce their rule.

Culture

The feudal nature of the Stockholm Camarilla is immediately noticable when interacting with its more powerful members. Everything is about appearances and class to the faithful and they often dress in overly exquisite clothing as well as decorating their havens like palaces. The lower you go in the organization, the less the members care about such things and the lowest ranking members are barely distinguishable from their Anarch enemies in the way they act.

Public Agenda

The Camarilla's stated goal is to enforce the Masquerade and protect it's members from outside threats.

Assets

The Camarilla is, by far, the largest and most influential Kindred organization in Stockholm, having huge manpower and economic reserves to throw at any and all problems.

History

Inception

The Stockholm Camarilla was founded in 1523, quite a few years after the official start of the greater sect in 1493. This was mostly down to Sweden being an Anarch stronghold up until that point due to influence from the powerful Anarch Free States in Denmark. The Camarilla took their chance when king Gustav Vasa claimed the city and pushed out any Danish kindred influence, isolating the anarchs in Sweden from outside help. Even in their weakened state, the Anarchs still took an incredibly heavy toll on the forces of the newly formed sect which then made the calculation that further conflict simply wasn't worth it. Thus, a strange "live and let live"-situation developed where the sects simply left each other alone in their own corner of the capital where small proxy-conflicts were the only real sources of friction. This status quo would last with very few incidents for a very long time - all the way up until 1945.
   

Post-WW2

When the Norwegian Camarilla, which collaborated with the nazi occupiers, were overthrown by an Anarch uprising sponsored by the Danish Free States, a certain higher-up by the name of Maximilian Gyllenroos fled to Sweden. He was determined to stop such an uprising from ever happening again which he planned to ensure by taking control over the Stockholm Princedom by himself. By this point, Stockholm's court had fallen into severe decadence and complete negligence which had led to The Stockholm Anarch Society and even the Sabbat slowly encroaching on their territory. Thus, they were quickly ousted by Maximilian and his loyalists which then started to purge the worst excesses of the previous rulership while simultaneously fighting back against the rival sects. By the late 80s, the Camarilla was once again the undisputed rulers of Stockholm with only small enclaves of enemies left in the central parts of town.
   

Modern Day

In 2020, The Stockholm Camarilla is consolidating their control over their domains and has started to look outwards. The beacon of civilization and order must be preserved! Nothing will stand in the way of the Camarilla!
