He looked around for Aisling, his Chantry's Regent, not finding her in attendance as yet. His Sire, Mikhail, was not present and Nikolai hadn't seen him since Nikolai left Knight City a month ago.He made the rounds that Etiquette demands, surruptitiously bowing in respect towards the corner of Power where the Prince looked to be wanting to be kept alone. Nikolai's Appearance was augmented this night by a ritual he had performed to allow his animal magnetism to make up for some of the gifts that the Embrace didn't provide him (Impressive Visage, App of 4).As he came round to Qadir, he was pleasantly surprised at his invitation to stand nearby, and Perceived it as perhaps a desire on the powerful Sherif's part to speak to someone who was not a stuffed shirt."Ah, Qadir - you look so ready to jump to action - as if we may be so lucky that tonight's schedule might include such excitement!Have any Elysium's you've attended needed your palpable services as yet?"Nikolai stands beside Qadir, his back to the wall looking out at the crowd, and makes a joke intended to make fun of Nikolai's less-than-awe-inspiring physical threat :"Yyyyyep! You just let me know if anybody here gets uppity and in need of getting their skulls cracked, cause I'm yer man!"Nikolai blusters up and cracks his knuckles like a bouncer to further illustrate the absurdity of the statement.</blockquote>
