| For centuries the Assassins brewed in the hallowed halls of Alamut, spending each night trying to break the curse that the Tremere laid upon them for their actions in the anarch revolt. During this time they became known as the most honorable of clans, going so far as to declare a target untouchable if a single assassin failed to eliminate her chosen mark. Imagine the Kindred's surprise when the Assamite's codes vanished overnight, along with several old Kindred with powerful vitae flowing through their bodies. Gone are the safe times for the Tremere clan, who has become one of the main targets for the Assamite's wrath. They have lost dozens of clan elders, and the Pyramid has slowly begun to crumble under the force of the Assamite onslaught. This year roughly a third of the Assamite clan has fled to the Camarilla claiming that some supernatural force has driven them from the halls of Alamut. While they aren't talking to other clans, it is believed that the Assamites in the Camarilla have had several meeting with the Black Hand warlords regarding some topic of interest to both groups. |
