FREE ESSAY ON JAMES DECARTES

JAMES DECARTES

World War I left many families dead, creating large numbers of orphans. Jamaie (later to
become James) Decartes was one of those orphans. His father died in the trenches in
France, and his mother was stolen away, never to be seen again. James was 14 when this
happened, he hid under floor boards when his mother was taken away. His humble french
hometown village, was over run with german foot traffic, traveling to and from the front
line. James 'decided this was no life for him, so he ran south, towards Switzerland,
which he knew wasn't involved in the war, trying to seek asylum. He traveled by the cover
of night, seeking charity from locals, and trying dodge the german military machine.
James refused to be beaten by the germans, he would sabotage trucks, and other equipment,
to do his part for his country. His spirit was undominatable, which is probably why his
sire Sven Troile took notice of him. Sven had recently left Russia, due to the war, and
the hardships with kindred politics there. Sven sought to establish a brujah presence in
the toreador dominated france after the war. For this Sven would need help, taking notice
of James, he watched over him and his travel, not letting himself be known. James may
very well have died, if it weren't for Sven, but James didn't know that. Eventually James
made it to switzerland, being a neutral party in the war, the soilders would not let him
enter the country. Confused as to what to do than, he started towards spain, but feared
that he would find no security there. Along his way towards spain, he met up with a swiss
farmer outside the country lines (through some persuasion down the road from sven), he
was invited to be smuggled inside the country. This is when he first met Sven, whos very
presence awed James. James, who was still young and impressionable, quickly latched onto
Sven's magnetic personality. James thought Sven was hiding for the war also, which gave
him more room. Sven promised James they would go back to France when the war was over,
and James was eager to return home and make a name for himself. Sven and James lived out
the war in Bern, Switzerland, enjoying the night life, which James never questioned, as
he had become accustomed to it, as he viewed it as safer at night for people illegally in
the country. No one ever asked any questions, as Sven's swiss was nearly perfect. During
their stay in Switzerland, Sven continually dropped hints about his true nature and
society, to make it easier for James to figure out. After the war, when James was 18, He
and Sven returned to France. They went to a city called Loire, a large growing metropolis
in western France. James saw less of Sven than, as Sven always had 'business to attend
too'. James worked for a man Sven new, named Bennito Turen (an Italian man), down at the
shipping docks. After a year of service to Bennito, he got angry, James did not know why,
but he did. Bennito was beat James near death (james couldnt believe how strong bennito
was), when Sven showed up. James wasnt sure why, maybe it was because his head had been
hit, but Sven seemed to move with blinding speed, and hit with amazing power. Sven beat
Bennito down, and into the water, and came to James. Not knowing any other way to save
James, Sven embraced him, his wounds healing, and the power of unlife throbing through
his now undead veins. James was shocked by his transformation, but not angered. He had
expected something like this to happen, througout his traveles with Sven. Over the next
year, Sven taught all he could to James, who proved to be a very apt student. James, not
only learning scholarly things from Sven, he taught himself how to fight. He never wanted
to be beaten again, like he was by Bennito, whom James found out was also a vampire,
called a Giovanni. He lived in france with Sven learning all he could know for 8 years.
But as James wasnow a Brujah, didnt want to take part in Svens power struggle in france,
it sickened him, as it reminded him of the war. Against Svens wishes, James moved to
America, quickly picking up English in Boston. Seeing more dangerous politics among the
camarilla, he moved to california, hearing of better times there. After a few years in
California, World War II hit, which made James sad and resentful, as he figured it to
have been caused by kindred politics. His home country of france was torn apart again, by
another war. He almost returned to defend his country, but feared the elder powers there.
He was conversing with his Sire again durring this time, and on the day France
surrendered, the letters Ceased. The war ended, and his country was freed, and to his
supreme enjoyment, became a world leader. James was living his life happily, staying out
of politics, which was becoming harder and harder to do as he aged. In the 1970's, the
Anarchs revolted in california, declaring it an anarch free state. James took control of
a small gang of street urchins, and helped win the 'war'. After making a name for
himself, he enjoyed the power it gave him, and lived it up, taking an active roll in
politics. After a while, the Anarch free state in San Diego started falling apart, he
switched sides. Soon after San Diego became a Camarilla city again. Fearing retribution
from other anarchs, he moved to Madison, WI. He hid here for a few years, and when he
learned of the opportunity in Howerd, WI, he moved there quickly. World War I left many
