Alright people, yesterday's session happened, here's the update on the situation:
My character received a couple of visions via Cassandra's Tears (first time that happened since the campaign started!). They were:
-The Venatori cell leader gathering together with a couple of agents, and speaking about the need to exterminate all supernaturals, including vampires, fae, changelings and wizards. A person attempting to leave the meeting was shot.
-A gathering between the 5 leading Black Court Elders, including our Rukh. My character didn't get a good look at the other's faces (everyone was wearing a black robe). They were discussing a peace treaty to be presented to the White Council. Catherine was accused of making too many concessions.
-A scene with our werewolf and the Rukh making out. There seemed to be no sign of coercion.
Based on the new information, I made a declaration that my character intentionally lured the Umbrorum leader to the site, in order to stall the execution for the others to arrive. It's a major arsepull, but quite frankly, I was tired of all the infighting. We decided to take him hostage and use him as leverage to free the Rukh, who was still trapped and weakened. A fight ensued, revealing the Umbrorum as a Red Court Vampire, not just an infected (which we previously assumed). With the sun rising, he fled, and we overwhelmed the opposition. We brought the Rukh back to her home, where we brought her up to speed on the situation (after she fed). My character deduced that her human guise was some kind of flesh mask. We went back to Alcatraz, and searched some of their leftovers, which we used for a tracking spell. We found the new hideout, and that's where we stopped with the session.
All in all, it turned out ok, I guess. Not quite happy about it (it's an almost 180° turn in my character's personality), but at least it goes on.
