Favor Trading
Kevin believes in win-win solutions. He would rather an ally owe him a favor than force someone's hand. It is a slow process but it builds loyalty. To that end, he strengthens his ties to clans known for their favor-trading — the Ministry and the Toreador — and has quietly granted Marcel and Annabelle the right to Embrace three times each, or allow others of their clans to do so within Chicago.
Spotlight On
Maldavis is vital to Kevin's plans and he intends to keep her in play for as long as possible. He assigned a squad of Bloods to secretly protect Maldavis. Her "revolt" is needed to pull his enemies out of the shadows and establish who can be trusted.
Up-and-Comer
Jackson may be the youngest Prince in the states, but he uses this to his advantage, describing himself as the new face for the 21st-century Camarilla. He intends to make other Camarilla domains follow his example of a city where vampires either shape up to the modern era or find themselves without Camarilla protection and benefits. He intends to challenge the city Kindred with faux Inquisition, Sabbat, and Lupine
raids to keep them on their toes, using his Hounds and Sheriff to implement this permanent state of emergency.
Dealing with Beasts
The Lupine-Kindred alliance is not holding, as it appears Lupines cannot be bought for long with promises of peace, property, and money. Jackson is now on the lookout for a permanent solution. He prefers a deal, but he'll send his Hounds to hunt the werewolves down if he has to.
Anarch Purge
Kevin hates betraying his own blood, and as much as he loathes the majority of the city's Ventrue, they're still his family. Despite that, he's concluded the Hurricane must go. Weatherbottom has too much access to too many Kindred. Kevin has an information-security firm watching Bobby's online movements, but he does not know if his team of hackers can find all the trapdoors the Hurricane has built.
Leaning into the Shadows
The Lasombra deal is important to Kevin. If he can pull this off, making his city the first to accept the Lasombra sacrifice and admit them formally to the Ivory Tower, it establishes him as a diplomat and moves him into a more secure position within America's Camarilla. Currently, he's underestimated as a young Prince in a prominent Camarilla domain. He has called in additional muscle from Medgar, due to arrive in a few weeks.
Missing Men
The Prince meets weekly with the gangs under his control but relies more on secured cellphones and speaking in code for any pressing issues. One gang has missed the last two meetings, but their donations keep coming in. He needs someone to look in on the gang's absence.
Family Business
Jackson sent his siblings to key Camarilla domains around the world for a specific reason: He wants to form a royal Ventrue dynasty. Once he receives recognition for Chicago's success, he will point at his childer and say "they can do the same thing for your domains."
Kevin's most important relationship is with his vampire family: Medgar, Langston, and Zora. Though they operate in domains beyond Jackson's reach, he stays in frequent contact with his sibling-childer, always ready to call them back to Chicago to defend the family.

Kevin values Sovereign's advice but
Kevin values Sovereign's advice but barely trusts him. He weighed up whether to install Sovereign or Ballard as Seneschal, only opting for the former due to Alan's subtlety. He believes both control impressive influence across the city, but doesn't buy Sovereign's meek appearance. To offset his Seneschal's ambition, he's considering moving Ballard into a Primogen role, so the two can fight each other rather than punching toward the city praxis.
Since Inyanga's disappearance, Jackson's relationship with the Primogen is mixed. He appreciates Critias' wisdom, but disdains the Brujah's preference for council rule. He understands and respects Annabelle's influence, and courts her favor, but finds her vapid. He looks at "Khalid" as the one reliable gear in the machine, with Newberry and Hernandez so far untested. The Prince understands the need for each clan to have representation, but wonders if he should pick some new representatives to replace Critias and Annabelle. They're unlikely to step down willingly, however.
Jackson grows to loathe the destructive Kindred such as Balthazar and Sweetie Pepper, and is wondering if now is the time to make them examples of what happens when you don't follow the Camarilla code. Balthazar's death would certainly make an impact.
