Adrian Morris
Well dressed and well mannered, Jay encountered Morris in Leopold's company. Morris was introduced as an Archon of the Camarilla, a position of some authority. Jay mentioned that Markus had suggested that he seek a mentor in the jyhad, and Morris's temper flared slightly at the mention of Dean, who he deemed a traitor to his clan. Jay asked that Morris teach him more about the Camarilla, to which Morris eventually agrees, stating he'll be in touch.
Jay and Morris maintained a few minor exchanges before Jay revealed the coterie would be leaving town for a bit and that he would be in touch as events warranted. After a hellish night in the Second Inquisition's stronghold and Markus absconded with Marlena, Jay called Morris, attempting to deal for the coterie's lives and safety. After some attempted haggling ending in an agreement to trade the group's life boon from Valentine and a major boon from Jay, Morris agrees to intercede on Jay's behalf with the Albany Camarilla and attempt to clear Marsh's name from the Camarilla's bad graces. Morris pointedly states that he'll be in touch to arrange the exchange, then hangs up.
The following night, Morris sends Jay a location down by the docks. Rain and Jay meet him with Valentine in tow, while Morris is attended by Abel, a member of Clan Tremere. After Morris mentions Valentine's generation, Abel secures the appropriate vial of blood. Jay signs over Valentine's life debt in blood, an act which Morris signs off on as well with a drop of vitae. Before moving to awaken Valentine, Morris informs Jay that he has a job for the coterie: attend a party thrown by a religious group known as the Children of the Archangel, figure out what they're up to, and bring proof, if any, that's available of their activities or breaking the Masquerade. Jay pockets the invitation and leaves, but not before overhearing Morris and Valentine talking with his superior senses.
