Clans


Tracing their lineage through millennia back to legendary founders, the families of vampires organize themselves along their lines as clans---vampires who share common heritage, abilities and weaknesses. Each clan claims descent from one of the near mythical Antediluvians, the grandchilder of Caine and progenitors of the vampiric race. The predilections and curse of these Antediluvians, it is said, mark each member of the clans. As a result, the members of given clans often share similar tastes and potentials.
