He is also clever, reflective, tenacious and accepts his possible fate at the hands of the Kuei-jin with uncharacteristic humility that might be construed by some as defeat. He is unapologetically demanding, lofty in his mannerisms, scheming and at times childish. He cared only for himself, and wanted the Ankaran Sarcophagus to gain its incredible power, though he claimed he wished to use it in order to protect fellow Kindred from the Kuei-jin. LaCroix is a charismatic yet power-hungry vampire.

Unfortunately, he found nothing within but his own destruction. He wanted to possess the Sarcophagus in order to diablerize whoever he found within. The prince became increasingly obsessed with the Sarcophagus, eventually becoming convinced it held an elder, maybe an Antediluvian, or perhaps even Caine himself. As 'payment' for his generosity, the childe was made to serve as the Prince's pawn, a pawn which rose in importance as the prince learned of the arrival of the Ankaran Sarcophagus. While the sire was killed, local Anarch leader Armando Rodriguez protested, and LaCroix allowed the childe to live as a demonstration of his clemency. One of the Kindred in his domain had sired without permission, and both sire and childe were to be executed as a public warning. Toward the end of October in 2004, events were set in motion which led to LaCroix's destruction. According to the Anarchs of Los Angeles, LaCroix's position in vampire society was not earned naturally but by other means additionally, they believe that the Camarilla's laws cannot be applied to them by the prince, seeing as they are free. He is head of the LaCroix Foundation, and resides in the Venture Tower in downtown Los Angeles, commanding the city from his penthouse office.īy Camarilla tradition, he is the prince of all Kindred within his domain, though few acknowledge his authority. He became Prince in Los Angeles sometime between 19.

He traveled extensively, from Africa, where he encountered his bodyguard, the mysterious Sheriff and killed Grünfeld Bach's grandfather, to London, where he killed Bach's father. He spent his vampire years making allies, ruining his enemies and brokering deals. LaCroix ascended in the ranks of Napoleon's army until he was embraced by a Belgian noble, 'shortly after the Battle of Waterloo'. He received his military education at the Royal Military Academy before joining the ranks of Napoleon's Grande Armée. LaCroix was born, presumably in the in late 1700s, in Calais, France.
