Toy Chest Test

Artwork by: Dennis Calero

This test was suggested by the Preacher to retest a quadriplegic Samedi corresponding to his abilities. The Samedi was believed to have failed his Creation Rites prior to the 1800s and remained in torpor until his discovery in 1852. Archbishop Strathcona succumbed to the Preacher's request to revive the Samedi and place him in a toy chest with another vampire who is receiving the Creation Rites. The result is a toy chest full of blood, gore and a floating Samedi who is aptly nicknamed Toy. Les Misérables took Toy into their coven, declared him Montreal's national treasure and continued to use the Toy Chest Test, at times, on their neonates which none has thus survived.

Name: Toy
Descendant: -unknown-
Clan: Samedi
Sire: -unknown-
Progeny: -none-
Embraced Age: pre 1800s

Toy is a quadriplegic kindred who was born without any limbs but "reborn" with rows of razor-sharp teeth. He went feral after his Embrace and during his Creation Rites when he was unable to claw out of his grave for decades before going into torpor. After Toy's retest, became Les Misérables' national treasue and the unofficial mascot for Montreal. Les Misérables would bring him out for fun and games such as "Bobbing for Mortals", "Taking Toy for a Walk" and "Movie Night". Currently, Toy is under the "care" of the Wretched pack, who won him in a bet, where he is mostly kept sealed in his toy chest except for feeding times.
