| In this journey, you and your friends tell the story of some of these monsters, namely those mortal men and women who find themselves transformed into vampires. In this journey all vampires are known as Kindred, for that is the name they know each by. |
| About Kindred |
 |
| Neither truly alive nor dead, the Kindred survive on the blood of mortals. They can shrug off terrible injuries, they never grow old, and they have a variety of inhuman abilities |
| Nevertheless, the Kindred fear many things, from the burning touch of sunlight or fire, to the widespread exposure of their kind before their mortal prey. Most of all, they fear the Beast, that savage aspect of their damned souls that hungers for blood and violence and can drive them into uncontrolled rage or acts of sheer depravity. |
