Amrit Patel
From Circle Of The Crone
Most Kindred, Acolyte or not, will describe Amrit in a number of ways; aloof, intimidating, eccentric, striking, exacting and persistent, to name a few. But no matter how poetically (or not) they put it, all of those ways essentially boil down in the end to "stubborn, unmitigated bitch".

Things Known or Rumoured in the Kindred Population
Amrit is best known to others as Mrs. Victoria Stewart, a (then) quiet Acolyte who established and ran the Vermillion House of Vermillion, Kansas, back in the mid-late 1800's.
Amrit is said to be the brood mate or some other relation of Julia Kincaid, whom she often calls Baheen, which a Sanskrit word meaning blood-sister. Her primary city of residence is said to be Seattle, Washington, though she's been known to frequent the city of New York, along with Washington DC, Orlando and Phoenix, and she occasionally pops up in the state of New Hampshire.
Though she herself is incredibly reserved, she is often seen in the company or known to be working with a number of notable and generally more personable Elders, including the leaders of a number of Cities and Covenants - Xavier Ellison of Seattle, Prince David Baron of Seattle, Grand Duke Aleksandyr Evengii of Orlando, Prince Emeritus Barnabus Kensington of Los Angeles, Prince Cynric St. George of Portsmouth, Prince Amon (or Brogan) of Bangor, Lord Cadyern, Simon Cassio of New York City, and Cardinal Carlo Giolotti of the Pacific North West.
Common Knowledge within the Circle
Little is actually known about Amrit's particular form of Faith, mostly because most Acolytes are less than willing to ask her about it, though also because she has been a primarily autonomous practitioner of her Faith. She is known as a Challenger, though if she is currently active among the Acolytes in that respect, her activity is subtle. She is also known to be a confessor-of-sorts to a number of Acolytes (as well as members of some other covenants). She has maintained her Hierophancy in the city of Seattle, despite her obviously nomadic nature, for over 50 years.
Despite her extremely anti-social nature, she is as well-known for her longevity within and support to the Circle, having served as a Ghoul to Kindred in the fringe elements of Goddess-worshipping Hindu sects which were eventually subsumed into the Circle. She's also known just as well for the company she keeps, being frequently seen with Lady V, Urvi Ajay Ayushmati, Roweena, Julia Kincaid, Felipe Saunier, and Yamagami Seiko, along with her student Jordan di Milan.
