Vampires are a kind of Blooded. Uniquely, vampires are sentient and have their own civilization hidden behind the veil of mundane civilization. Their lineages are one such result of that culture.

The von Sabots

Before they were von Sabots, they were known as Gregorii after their Ascendant: Gregor. Originally they were the public face of the Black Court in Westfal, before the rising power of The Heiress forced them to switch sides and join the Red Court in Nostrum.

Trusted by neither side and caught between these two factions, the von Sabots are considered a meagre, regional power in the world of vampiric courts.

Domain

Nobility

Thralls

Lingering Obediance | Once someone has been made a thrall to the von Sabots, even after the connection fades it never truly ends. Even if they hate their former master, they are psychologically unable to bring themselves to kill their former master.

Boon

von Sabots ignore the effects of Vampiric Visage.

Bane

The Ghost of Gregor | All von Sabots look related, even if they bear no actual familial ties. They all resemble in some way their Ascendant, Gregor. Every now and then, especially in times of heightened emotion, they are overwhelmed with fits of anger or cruelty, like their Ascendant was said to be.

Generations

At every generation, if there is more than one ability, the vampire picks one ability from that generation once they've reached it.


Motherlings

Sometimes called The Elfen Ones, or Childer, or other monikers. They are an ancient and mysterious lineage, dating back to before the fall of Midasgard. It is said that their Ascendant, Heceana, was once an elven Maker.
