Biography

Shawna Weber is a loner who grew up in foster care in the Moreno Valley area before running away at the age of 16. She took to the streets where she dressed up as a boy to survive 'in plain sight'. Eventually, at the age of 18, she moved to Los Angeles where her andrognyous appearance helped her go unnoticed while living on the streets and in the shelters. By her early 20's, she took to camping out in Griffith Park where she eventually befriended Ricardo Vasquez, a young park ranger who would let her in at night.

In early 2004, Shawna was discovered by Carol Winters, a Gangrel Ancilla who was embraced in Seattle during the height of the Gold Rush. Carol had taken residence in Griffith Park while planning on passing through the area shortly after the events of 2003. Carol was intrigued by Shawna's ability to survive on her own and took to checking in on her in secret when Shawna was staying overnight in Griffith Park.

On the evening of October 10th, 2004, Shawna was attacked by three men who wanted to mug and rape her. She fought valiantly, severely injuring one, before being overpowered. She continued to fight back until Carol intervened and rescued her, leaving the three attackers dead and carrying Shawna off to the deeper part of Griffin Park where she embraced her. In truth, Carol had arranged the attack as a test of Shawna's survival instincts which she had passed despite ultimately losing the fight. Carol and Shawna remained together for a year after as Carol taught Shawna about the world of the kindred and Gangrel. Most of that time was spent in the Desert north of Los Angeles, though the pair did travel as far east as Arizona in the Winter of 2005.

Carol eventually left Shawna and the latter traveled throughout Arizona before returning to California in the early 2010's where she spent the last several years outside of Monterray. She returned to Los Angeles in 2020 and quietly settled back into Griffith Park, which she has claimed as her own.

Shawna would soon enough fall in with Cheyenne Spare, Baron of Santa Monica, and agree to serve as Warden of the Westside Anarchs despite holding her own domain in Griffith Park... a post she would hold until Cheyenne Spare's death at the hands of the Salubri Antitribu, Jael, in Huntington Park in 2021.

After Cheyenne's death, Shawna would be caught up in the subsequent power vacuum that followed and would ultimately remove herself from Westside politics. She would formally join the Hollywood Anarchs under Baron Isaac Abrams in large part at the urging of her friend, Hollywood Gargoyle Robbie Bartok.

In Summer of 2021, Shawna would be betrayed by her friend and protege, Becky Cromwell, as part of the Camarilla's move to claim Hollywood from Isaac Abrams. Her crows would be poisoned and Becky would lead a Camarilla hit squad to The Wisdom Tree in western Griffith Park where Shawna was defeated. Rumors would spread of the destruction of the Gangrel of Griffith Park though, in actuality, Shawna was sent into torpor and taken captive by the Camarilla forces.

Shawna would be held captive and in torpor by the Camarilla in secret for many months before ultimately being released after a ransom paid by the former baron, Isaac Abrams. She would briefly fall in with the Southside Anarchs before moving on to assist the Westside, where she would befriend Doctor Fe Han of the Westside Anarchs.

Shawna would temporarily settle in the San Vicente Mountains though her heart and sights would remain set on her old domain of Griffith Park. At the turn of the New Year, the disappearance of Becky Cromwell would offer an opportunity to reclaim her previous domain, a move Shawna would make on her own. With the death of her friend, Fe Han, and the reclamation of her domain, Shawna would ultimately remove herself from Anarch politics and claim Independence.
