->The Great Depression increased the power of Vito Corleone. And indeed it was about that time he came to be called [[TheDon Don Corleone]]. Everywhere in the city, honest men begged for honest work in vain. Proud men demeaned themselves and their families to accept official charity from a contemptuous officialdom. But the men of Don Corleone walked the streets with their heads held high, their pockets stuffed with silver and paper money. And even Don Corleone, that most modest of men, could not help feeling a sense of pride. He was taking care of his world, his people. He had not failed those who depended on him and gave him the sweat of their brows, risked their freedom and their lives in his service. And when an employee of his was arrested and sent to prison by some mischance, that unfortunate man's family received a living allowance; and not a miserly, beggarly, begrudging pittance but the same amount the man earned when free.

->[[{{Necromancer}} Deadgrave]] had turned out to be an amazingly good employer. He had learned from the examples of too many necromancers and dark lords who had [[BadBoss ruled their minions with whips and iron fists]] and who had [[TheDogBitesBack ended up friendless and dismembered the moment the chips went down]]. He followed through on his promises. The light musical theatre took place regularly as scheduled and were pretty enjoyable, even if the traveling theatre groups that were brought in tended to perform with a certain wild-eyed terror. And we were allowed to keep whatever we looted from invaded villages. This rarely amounted to much more than a few armfuls of potatoes and the occasional sheep, but we didn't hold it against him [[AffablyEvil because he was just so considerate]]. One time, I made an offhand comment about how hard it was to hurl prisoners into the rat pit without getting nibbled, and the very next day there were nibble-proof overalls waiting in the rat pit antechamber.

->Ghouling, to a [[LooksLikeOrlok Nosferatu]], should be performed with the same amount of forethought one would put into creating progeny, and Nosferatu ghoul only those whom they would consider for the Embrace. Accordingly, [[DarkIsNotEvil this tight-knit clan]] treats newly initiated ghouls as the "new childer" in the Nosferatu warren; [[ParentalSubstitute the vampires]] train their ghouls to become bold, resolute, and above all, competent, nourishing them and teaching them the clan's history in the process. Very often, Nosferatu warrens resemble "communes": each ghoul works for the good of all Nosferatu, not just her domitor, and the Nosferatu treat all ghouls, animal or human, with equal amounts of esteem.
