City Father

The city father is an enigmatic spirit. He represents the awakened city of Delft, the feel of the town so to say. As such, he is very rarely seen in a corporal spirit form.

However, parts of him can be found with ease if you know where to look. You can hear his voice when you stroll over the Beestenmarkt on a warm summer evening. You might catch a glimpse of him between the students trying to get into the bus to the university every morning. His writing is sometimes spotted in the endless bureaucratic red tape the townfolk lay down trying to preserve a tree or such. You can smell him when walking through the many alleyways in the old town. He eats from the Delft pottery plates you see in the tourist shop windows. He might have stolen your bike one time or the other. In fact, you've probably met him already.

Dies-Last Dawnstalker claimed to have spoken with the City Father in the form of a drunk and weary student in a student fraternity bar, multiple times.

Conny spoke with the City Father in 2006, also in the form of a drunk and weary student.

Take two and the Ginger Wolfs made a deal with the City Father in Maart, 2010. They traced the City Father to a pub and persuaded him to delay the demolishing of the Cearn by the Weaver by giving him a SMART promise.

In february 2012 the city father invited the Garou of the blue pelt sept for drinks and festivities. As part of the challenge he asked the garou for a gift, which one pack cleverly solved by stealing a hammer from one of the famed fraternities of Leiden, which started a feud with the Leiden city father. He also asked for the sept to deal with a Wyld spirit who blocked the connection of the two A4 highways.

In april 2012 the cityfather has accepted a spiralpack called de Heren of Delft as his own pack.


The city father of Leiden seems to be represented by a dusty old professor using the names of famous (..but long dead) academics who delivered their work from the university of Leiden. He resents the garou of Delft for the forementioned stolen hammer.
