Zach Penn/Hooks

Philosopher: Zach wanders around and thrives on opportunities to debate moral philosophy with anyone and everyone. He's a decidedly secular humanist, feminist, and social-contract theory subscriber.

Notoriety: Among Mages, Zach is something of a legend... and not in a good way. He's a renowned and very skilled Certamen Duelist, with over five dozen duels to his name. He's also defeated a countable number of Hermetic masters at the game - no one is really sure how, those masters sure aren't talking, but the Order of Hermes is VERY upset with him about this, and some... other business. Evidence has come to light that Zach is probably a Nephandus (though not everyone believes it), and he's barred from all chantries that are members of The Council of Nine Mystick Traditions. He consorts with werewolves and other known threats. Also? He's an asshole. Hermetic Mages are forbidden to duel him on threat of disbarment. All others are strongly urged to NOT get in a circle with him.

Heather: Zach's most recent trip back to Detroit wasn't a solo trip like his usual wanderings. This time he came back with a strange teenage girl. She's an odd duck, and isn't usually out without his escort.
