Malcolm has the dubious distinction of heading up the local Anarch presence in Seattle. The Anarchs present in this city, however, are not the leather-clad Brujah thugs Kindred across America have come to know and love (or loathe). More of a political mind than a martial one, Malcolm and his companions are known in cities around the northwest corner of the United States, and beyond.

Malcolm scouted up and down the west coast for new resources to bring to bear against the Kuei-Jin menace, especially since the Camarilla capitulated to them, permitting the Oriental vampires to hold Los Angeles with their blessing. Most western Princes don't like this state of affairs any more than the Anarchs do, but what can be done about it?

Then, of course, the Wayfarers inserted themselves into the situation, and the result was chaos (naturally)! After liberating the former anarch territories from Kuei-Jin occupation and installing a Prince, the Gangrel went on their merry way. Meanwhile, the Anarch movement collapsed in their wake -- robbed of their Free State in a shell game, as it passed through Cathayan hands into the Camarilla.

The arrival of Gehenna has made such political considerations moot, however. Faced with a devastating new Hunger and the fall of the Masquerade, Malcolm has more immediate needs to attend to. Throwing his lot in with Thurman, the ex-Sheriff of the domain, must have been a bitter pill to swallow. When faced with imminent Final Death, though, these things become easier to bear.
