Born in New York City in 1874 to a poor immigrant family, Ken Saito struggled for years to improve himself and care for his family. This singular drive to succeed pushed him to become a doctor. Unfortunately, working on the front lines of the Spanish Flu caught the attention of a member of the Lancea Sanctum. Embraced in 1921, shortly after the pandemic ended, his natural talent with tracking blood along with his easy mastery of the Crochan discipline saw him pressed into service as a bloodhound for the Sanctified, hunting down heretics. This was enforced by a constant Vinculum and liberal use of both Dominate and Majesty, to the point where he nearly forgot who he was.
This unfortunate state of affairs lasted until barely a decade ago, when the hunt brought them to Philadelphia. The blatant disregard for the local laws (People are People, not property) along with the overt threats made to a member in good standing did not make Ken and his regnant popular, leading to his capture. After he was captured, a local Dragon managed to break the blood bond on Ken. In gratitude, he aided them in capturing his current master, a Nosferatu Crusader, and left them to meet the sun.
Finding himself in full control of his mind for the first time in almost 90 years, he found himself drawn to the Ordo Dracul. Since then, he has made a name for himself as a rude but compassionate man, devoted to helping out those who are struggling in both his capacity as a resident ER doctor or a back alley surgeon under the name Doc Blood.
