Biography:
Born in early France, Laurent was the son of a blacksmith, destined to be nothing more then a blip in the grand scheme of history. When he was 12 he stowed away on what he assumed was a Merchant Vessle, hoping and praying to find advenutre and fun out on the open sea. What he found was pirates.
He was found in the cargo hold and brought before the Captian. Sure of his own death, Laurent fought against those holding him and managed to tear himself free, though escape on a pirate ship was rather limited. He tumbled overboard only to be rescued by the captian himself when Laurent quickly learned that swimming was a whole new ballgame when in the wake of a ship.
The captian took a liking to Laurent, he had spunk and fire and spirit. He was taken under the man's wing and shown the ropes of being a sailor. He took to it quickly and by the time he was 20 he was the Captian's First Mate. He was 23 when he took over the ship from the captian, taking on the man's name and continuing his reign of terror on the high seas.
He met Lily-Rose on a rare trip to England three years after becoming Captian. She was beautiful, lovely, other worldly. They married only a year later and he threatned to give up his life of Piracey, but Lily would have none of it. She came onto the ship with him, ruled with him, and was a very, very good pirate. She made him proud.
Several years later, while trying to make an honest living as a merchant vessel, they took on a cargo of dead for transportation from Egypt to London. There was one among the coffins, however, that wasn't dead. Laurent and Lily were attacked in their sleep, kept locked in their quarters for several days, and a week later rose as vampires. Their Sire, Sekmet, stayed with them for years, converting the ship back to what it once was, a pirate ship.
They ruled the open seas for centuries, amassed a fortune, until the modern era was ushered in and they were forced from the seas. Lily and Laurent settled in England, in the countryside where they wouldn't have to worry with any vampire polotics, and kept to themselves, while Sekmet moved on, leaving them to their boring life.
Boring wasn't going to stick with them however. They were found by a group of hunters. Those hunters, humans who called themselves Humans First, managed to kill Lily, while torturing Laurent. He was left to die in the middle of a field, a wounded and broken man. He managed to claw his way to a barn, hiding under the floorboards throughout the day, and drinking his fill of cows blood when the sun rose.
Still broken and very weak, Laurent found his way to London. There he was found by some of the Master's Guard, forced before the cruel man and tortured more for not presenting himself porperly before the Master when he first came to the city.
As the old saying goes, what doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger, and this certiantly made Laurent stronger. He was oathed to the London Kiss, and rose through the ranks the same way he did in his early years on the pirate ship, through hard work and blood. He soon became the City Second, serving the cruel man well in his time in London, but as soon as American became populated, he pulled up stakes and headed for a new land.
Laurent settled in Boston, establishing the Kiss there. He has held the vampires of Boston in check through war, riots, and peace, and will continue to do so until someone can manage to kill him.
