Anders

Introduction
Anders arrived in Detroit toward the end of July, 2018, in the company of his eleven year-old daughter, Lorelei Sundberg. The two of them live together in a subsidized apartment in the Industrial Building downtown.

Anders is a musician, more often struggling than not, for all that he's a gifted guitarist and a good pianist. He has a decent voice, a passion for old folk music, and a desire to write songs, although he hasn't found the occasion to do so. In the past, he's made his living as a session musician working with various recording studios, but has yet to establish himself in Detroit. Those with an interest in live music might hear him performing at various clubs or coffee shops around the area.

Contacts
Maya -- A friend? A much-needed friend. She has her commitments. I try to keep this in mind.

Bit -- Well. He's polite about it, anyway.
Victoria -- What the hell just happened?

RP Hooks
Neighbors?-- Anders and his daughter live on the second floor of the Industrial Building downtown. Others living in the building, or visiting there, might encounter him in the lobby, the elevator, etc.

Talkin' 'Bout That Folk Music-- Anders performs in various clubs and coffee shops around town, typically for tips. His repertoire is heavy on old-school folk, although he's been known to throw in a few surprises. Live music fans-- or people just trying to get a damned cup of coffee already-- might cross paths with him in this context.

Lounge Lizard-- To earn a buck, Anders plays what is euphemistically called 'dinner piano' in the Grill Room of the Rattlesnake Club down on the riverside. Those enjoying a drink there might see him behind his baby grand, sleepwalking his way through light instrumental jazz or, much less often, ruffling the straights with a more vivacious piano number.

Glamour Bomb?-- Although he's a perennial underachiever, Anders really is a talented musician. He also has the potential to be a very good songwriter. Fae sniffing about for Glamour could perhaps do worse than to give him a look-in.

Disclaimer
In World of Darkness MU* parlance, Anders is a Mortal, sans plus. I understand that this limits his utility to the various supernatural beings populating Detroit, and also circumscribes what they can say around him. This being the case, I welcome and value any plausible RP you might have in mind for your character and Anders. At the same time, I won't be offended OOCly by those who think it makes sense for their characters to limit their interaction with him.
