Identity

Martin Larios legally doesn't exist. There is no paperwork on him at all. He owns Porta Aurea through a regularly changed alias with rock-solid paperwork that he has access to, but he never uses it. Unlike many Red Court Vampires, his flesh mask doesn't reflect his original appearance, but changes with each identity shift. He keeps thralls in positions of power in the second tier who can enact his will for him. He never shows his face to anyone at his companies but his thralls. He maintains a series of expensive condos throughout the city where many of his thralls live and which he uses for meetings. They are also magically protected. His current alias is "Carlos Velasquez" and his address of record is penthouse 2A in Millennium Tower, a three bedroom condo which he uses as a meeting place, safe house, and temporary residence for out-of-town Red Court visitors. His real home is a mansion on Nob Hill that is staffed entirely by vampires who have worked there for a hundred years and are unfailingly loyal.

Red Court

Conde (Count) Martín Larios Acevedo is a well-placed member of Red Court nobility, having earned his title with his success in San Francisco and his now international banking interests. His companies support the activities of the Red Court primarily through smuggling and funding.

Porta Aurea Holdings

Larios owns all of the shares of this holding company, which in turn holdings controlling interests in a score of other holding companies, which themselves own most or all of the shares of a hundred or more smaller companies, banks, and investment firms. Nothing in the first two tiers are publicly traded and, thus, there are few, if any, public records about their activities. The only company with Larios' actual name on it is NFH, and only if you dig far enough into the corporate history to get to the original bank. There are only a handful of employees, the head of which is Angelina Alonso.

Holdings

  • Niantic Financial Holdings (banking and investments, oldest, originally Yerba Buena Bank)
  • Red Dragon Trading Company (in Chinatown, hides smuggling of humans, antiquities, and contraband)
  • Museum of Mesoamerican History (in SOMA, run by Meriam Trimble)
  • Millennium Digital Technologies (specializing in wire-tapping)
  • Rio de Oro Holdings (mineral rights and real estate)
    • Rio do Ouro Mining Consortium (South American mining and mineral rights, CEO: Mauricio "Maury" Quintino of Brazil)
  • Yerba Buena Pharmaceuticals (local drug manufacturing)
  • Crimson Biomedical Research (body disposal, forensics)
  • Business Consulting Services (generic cover consulting firm)
