Playing a Sabbat Vampire in "the Masquerade" |
Contained within this page you will find links to some valuable information about playing a Sabbat character...Please bear with me...This site is under constant construction and hopefully *one day* will contain EVERYthing you ever wanted to know... |
An oath of allegiance has been sworn by the regent and the cosistory in the prescence of all faction leaders and 50 otehr witnesses to faithfully follow all regulations imposed by this code in leading the Sabbat. This revised Code of Milan is agreed on by all Sabbat factions, including those of Cardinals Huroff, Bruce de Guy, Agnes and Charles VI; and ArchBishops Beatrice, Una, Tecumseh, Giangaleazzo, Toth, Aeron, Marsilio, Rebecca, Julian and Sallucio. All other factions must pledge themselves in support of this revised Code of Milan or claim separation from the Sabbat." |
And thus began the reformed Sabbat for those of us living (or Playing) the Sabbat of today. The Code was made to be Unbroken. Young Cainites, or those newly inducted into the Sabbat ranks are 'whipped' into the ways of a True Sabbat. Following closely with the rituals of the |

Only the 13 Auctoritas are explained herein. Too many various other individual pack ritae exist and actually would be a waste of time and effort, unless you were actually a member of said pack. |
Ok, after reading about the structure you may argue the point of the "not a very structured sect" comment. I disagreed also, but considering the *ahem* Camarilla formalities, it is rather not. So we Sabbat/Players, will enjoy the freedom of being deemed a "non-structured* sect. |
This is a very short overview of each of these clans... For more in depth descriptions (ie..with disciplines and such) I suggest checking out an official White Wolf© site...*Or at least one that someone has done more investigation on the particular clan* However, I have included a more detailed page with information on the Pander, still not enough info on one page to be familiar with that clan.. |
Here are a few of the titles used by the sect, as well as their forms of address. While the titles themselves are universally male, the forms of address reflect the bearer's gender. |
These are the "mainstream" or recorded titles. Players and Storytellers are encouraged to make up their own titles as well--- "Such as the Vicar of the Incaradine Covenant", this makes it more interesting in game, other than meeting another priest from another unnamed pack. |
Ok, folks, this is serious stuff, not like that, "You stole my girl/car/bike/whatever" crap. These are real crimes. This is about being a faithful and True Sabbat. BTW this is not for the faint at heart or weak players/characters. This is hardcore roleplayng. Seriously. |
Hopefully, this will help clear up and unfamiliar terms/words that some of you may have heard. This is not a list of the Mundane terms that are tossed around in some of the online RPG games... This is straight from WW, and very interesting, for the most part. If one should chose to speak with this Lexicon, please be sure you use it in the right form, (and in conversation with the right people--- most Camarilla would not know the meanings--unless they were spies---in which could get you/the character killed--*See Code of Justice*). |
Yep, this is what everyone has been waiting for, BUT, before you leap off the deep end and decide to "create" a Black Hand character, let me warn you. *There is NOT enough information contained within this page to "become" a Black Hand Member.* Don't try it, don't even attempt it, without studying further, and for a long time. There are certain things that you cannot just be a "natural" at. It is not a title you toss around just because you "can." *If* you do/did a True Black Hand, or for correct terms sake, Tal Mahe'Ra, would come after you and you'd be, simply put, history. So don't say I didn't warn you.... |
Watch out for these guys. Careful what you say if someone suddenly starts following you everywhere and then starts asking you pointed questions. Hell, if they are following you first, better be careful when you tell them your name. Obviously, if these guys are sent for you, you've already pissed someone off. ~shiver~ The FBI/CIA have nothing on the intimidation from this lot! |
