About: The Alliance
Spoilers below - do not read without first reading Absolution: The Vampire Alliance Book One
Foundation: The Alliance was originally founded in 1942 as an opposition party to The Senate.
Moto: Freedom at all costs.
Reason for Creation: At the outbreak of World War Two the vampire Prime Minister and leader of The Senate, Thomas Depp, mysteriously disappeared allowing Deputy Prime Minister Edward Clarence to take his place. By May 1942 The Senate, the ruling party, were demanding emergency powers for the duration of the war to combat the perceived foreign threat of Hitler's vampire forces, lead by notorious vampire Abendroth.Under Clarence The Senate rolled out an oppressive and tyrannical regime using blackmail and abduction to force the granting of emergency powers which many suspected they had no intention of relinquishing in peace time. The Alliance was to be a new opposition party, strong enough to withstand the threats of The Senate.
Unfortunately, once The Senate received emergency powers is became impossible to function as a political party. In June 1942 The Alliance became a militarised organisation fighting for freedom from The Senate who, as suspected, became an oppressive dictatorship.
