I strongly dislike the idea that sleazy CEOs might be the real life examples of Ventrue. Picrel are actual nobility yet there is something so inherently repulsive about them, I couldn't tell you what, maybe it's par for the course for the Ventrue, but they definitely look evil. Could be how greasy they look.
Surely there have to be chivalrous and relatively good Vents out there, right?

I used to love Ventrue until I saw some slimy CEO descendants of royalty types and I thought that that's the closest you'll get to an IRL Vent. There's something inherently repulsive about them, I couldn't tell you what.
