These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Lore of the Bloodlines was made possible by the backers of the Lore of the Clans Kickstarter campaign.



The secrets of the Baali, Daughters of Cacophony, Gargoyles, Harbingers of Skulls, Kiasyd, Nagaraja, Salubri, Samedi, and True Brujah are now yours. Lore of the Bloodlines is a single volume companion to Lore of the Clans that revisits some of the bloodlines in Vampire: The Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition, providing story hooks, character concepts, history, and bloodline-specific rules. We are free to create our own truths amidst the lies. Here on the fringes, each vampire’s experience is unique. There is no larger picture for them - for us - to be a part of. From the brain-washed abominations of Tremere magic to vampires twisted by demonic will to the remnants of Clans long thought dead, each of these so-called “bloodlines” have their place in society. Instead, I have focused on nine that I know for certain have an impact in our little culture war of the dead. It would be the work of several lifetimes to find and document every tiny aberration or fleeting dead end that constitutes a variation from one of the thirteen. There are the errant Kindred inaccurately collected under the sobriquet of “bloodlines.” While their role in the eternal conflict between the childer of Caine is small, it is often incredibly impactful.Īs such, I provide this corollary to my original study. The Clans are not the only vampires that strut, if I might steal from the Bard, upon this great stage of fools.
