Factions & Politics

The blood argues with itself. These are the louder arguments.

Old Clan

  • Guardians of koldun traditions and blood rites.
  • Skeptical of Sabbat excess; value dominion over spectacle.
  • Influence through subtlety, land‑ties, and old oaths.

Sabbat Tzimisce

  • Vykos' sermons of transformation; crusade theology.
  • Vozhd and war‑thralls as instruments of doctrine.
  • Fragmented leadership after the Gehenna War.

Camouflage & Court

  • Diplomatic faces in Camarilla courts (rare, pragmatic).
  • Pursue influence through masks, ghouls, and patronage.
  • Rivalries with Tremere remain generational and personal.

Autarkis & Independents

  • Metamorphists, scholars, and surgeons of identity.
  • Reject sect dogma; pursue private apotheosis.
  • Maintain clandestine networks across old domains.
