Little is known about Carmine Kipling except that he is ruthless. He is the man to see when you want a "problem" taken care of. He was once known as the finest killer money could buy, but he has since retired. Now, he simply contracts out his own band of assasins. Men and women he has trained himself.

He was born in Italy, but has only the most subtle accent remaining. He speaks English, Italian, and Arabic fluently, and can make due in half a dozen others.

Though he is not middle-eastern, he is a devout follower of Set. Carmine was a contract killer long before being embraced. When he turned 40, he feared he might be getting too old for the job but wanted no end to it. His bloodthirst gained the attention of a mysterious Egytptian occultist who took him under his wing and promised him that he would become the finest killer. The benefactor hired him for some hits on vampires, all the while Carmine never knew that that his targets were Kindred.

After killing one particularly difficult target, his victim explained that not only was he a vampire, but so was Carmine's boss. Before killing him, the victim told Carmine about Diablerie; his ultimate revenge. Carmine went back to his boss, confronted him with knowing about vampires. His boss decided he was too valuable to simply kill, so he Embraced Carmine. After he awoke with the burning passions of the blood, and renewed vigor, he begged his sire to teach him about his clan.

Carmine became enamored with the legends of Set, and the mysteries of his clan. He mastered some levels of hiding in the shadows and even gained the ability of Serpentis; to hold the gaze of a victim. He used this gift against his sire, and drank him dry. The curse of serpentis changed his eyes to resemble those of a snake's, which is how he acquired the nickname of "Snake Eyes". As a result, he will usually be found wearing sunglasses, but he has been known to wear a patch, for the serpentis requires both eyes to be visible to work.

Make no mistake, he is a killer and a deceiver, pure and simple. He and his group are not aligned with Camarilla nor Sabbat, though they have worked with members of both, and against both. He runs his operation from the pyramid hotel in Las Vegas, The Luxor. He was intimately involved with its construction and knows all of the secret passages and tunnels that run underneath and connect it to many other tunnels under the strip. Some of which even the Nosferatu do not travel because they do not wish to raise Carmine's ire.
