Time.

1835
Melbourne founded.

1870
Reputedly, Rachel already had claimed considerable amounts of Melbourne as her personal territory. A few aboriginal tribes had late legends of a "red-devil" who came ahead of the whites.

1899
Kieran van der Noel known to have been in city, in Box Hill. First mage treaty - in return for the Tremere being banned from the city, the mages will not engage in any aggressive acts against the kindred.

1950
Reports of Howard being in city

198X
Sabbat attack. Squizzy Taylor disappears, presumed dead. The entire Nosferatu clan disappear. When other kindred arrive to fill the gaps (including the current Nosferatu primogen, Orion), they say that some of the deepest tunnels had collapsed.
1992
September:
Jacob Prestor Embraces three new childer and is killed for breaking the Masquerade. A Witchhunter is seen within Melbourne. The Sabbat attack. Tony di Matrio is killed. Edward is killed and Alex Danov leads the attack on the Sabbat, becoming Prince. He is supported by a number of new Kindred. Geelong is severely damaged. The Sabbat are driven off in a final confrontation near Portsea, but at great cost - nearly 10 kindred are killed. Supporters of Edward leave, other kindred come down from Sydenee and Adelaide, including the current Toreador primogen, Morgana.
December:
Reputedly the first concentrated attempt to depose Alexander Danov. Reports are confused, but it seems as if the Ancients stir in their sleep. Several kindred report seeing a nosferatu who referred to himself as "The Herald of Gehenna". Mages, fae, garou and kindred clash in the Dandenongs. Alex renews the mage-treaty.
1996
Lumley is killed in Perth by Anarchs. Some kindred flee to Melbourne, some leave for Perth.
