The Nosferatu elder Jonas can often be found at a chessboard in a corner of Elysium. The board and pieces are black and red. He will play with any who approach, such as the Malkavian Matthew Elliott, discussing matters of the night as they play, and his strategies vary seemingly at whim. Sometimes he sits alone and considers classic tactics, as if playing against some unseen opponent.
There are some other chess-themed Elysium illustrations on the tag and Discord, and someone noted it’s a popular trope in Vampire: The Masquerade. Indeed it is, with generation illustrations, adventures, book covers, and even an official chess set!
