This article is a summary of hooks, threads and quests given to the coterie and individual Vampires to both show what threads have been completed, which are in process, and which require further investigation. It is a work in progress and will be updated as new threads and hooks are provided. Hooks are in no particular order.
Group Hooks
Neutralize Maddison Larkin - given by Jaxson Crowe (COMPLETED)
The Coterie was tasked with locating and neutralizing Maddison Larkin, a former investigative reporter for the now defunct ABC, now working for The Australian. The Coterie located and infiltrated her apartment where her family lived. The Coterie was successful in recovering laptops and USB drives with photographs and research that could breach The Masquerade, as well as ascertaining Maddison's location. During this breach, Maddison's husband was interrogated, revealing links to the Anarch Ventrue Stephen Curnow. After this interrogation Larkin's husband was murdered.
The party tracked Maddison down to a construction yard / container lay-down in Melbourne's Docklands. The site was littered with crude crosses and hanging cloves of garlic, and was being patrolled by members of Melbourne's homeless community. The coterie managed to infiltrate the laydown yard unnoticed, and cross-referencing Maddison's research notes were able to find a sealed container, locked with padlocks engraved with the symbol of Melbourne's Camarilla Ventrue.
The Coterie was then able to corner Maddison in the office cabin, where the patrolling homeless were eliminated. The Coterie discovered that Maddison had been given a lead on old world treasures being smuggled into Melbourne by unknown people. This lead was given by Curnow, who she identified as a patron of hers. Maddison was restrained, captured, and handed over to Jaxson Crowe for debriefing.

Investigate link between Maddison Larkin and Stephen Curnow (NOT DONE)

Investigate Ventrue reasoning for importing treasures into Melbourne (NOT DONE)
Obtain Insights of the Snake Prince (book) - given by Ducky at the Neko no Nyah (COMPLETED)
The Coterie met the Gangrel Ducky while interrogating Larkin's husband. As repayment for cleaning up his murder, Ducky requested the coterie meet her at her Haven.
The evening after the Larkin Job the Coterie met with Duckie at her haven and club - the
Neko no Nyah. While there, Duckie requested that the coterie locate and procure a book called
The Insights of the Snake Prince. Downtime research by Anton found that the book was possibly related to an old Sabbat aligned clan known as
The Followers of Set.
The party followed Duckie's lead to Ray's Occult bookstore, where they discovered the book has been purchased earlier by a John Doe, giving an address in St. Kilda.
The Coterie followed this address to Lunar Park on St Kilda Beach. From there their investigations lead them to a hidden door in the cliff beneath Lunar Park. After confronting and defeating three Settite ghouls, the coterie recovered the book, and returned it to Professor Mandarin (one of Duckie's Coterie) for reward.
Discovered Threads:
Anton was able to discover via his Sire that the Settites had abandoned the Sabbat and had aligned with the Anarchs as a group of minor clans known as "The Ministry." It might be worthwhile investigating the resurgence of the Settite movement.
