If thou createst another with out thine elder's leave then both shall be slain. The Fourth Tradition The Accounting Those thou create are thine own childer.

Now i skip to the future and tell you about the Vampiric End of Times, the Gehanna. Listen closely. Prophecies of Doom And the world will turn cold and unclean things will boil up from the ground and great storms will roll, lighting will light fires, animals will fester, and their bodies, twisted, will fall So, too, our Grandsires will rise from the ground. They will break their fast on the first part of us. They will consume us whole... And you will know these last times by the Time of Thin Blood, which will mark vampires that can not beget, you will come to know them by the clanless who will come to rule you will know them by the Wild Ones who will hunt us even in the strongest cities you will know them by the awakening of some of the eldest and those who eat of Heart's Blood will flourish and the Kindred will crowd each to his own and Vitae will be as rare as diamonds... Shine, black the Sun! Shine, blood the Moon! Gehenna is coming soon. What we think of others taken from WW Brujah - What ever gods we shared in the past, we have nothing in common now. Followers of Set - To sup with the snakes is to invite teir poison to your table. Gangrel - I would almost forsake the tainted blood of animals, but my need is great. Giovanni - Let them traffic with their dead, but never suffer them to stain your domain with their debased presence. Lasombra - Untrustworthy and vulgar - but they are nonetheless soem of our best employers. Malkavians - Their blood brings madness when it stains our lips. Aviod them, lest you be tainted with their derangement. Nosferatu - Their hidiousness hides a semblance of honor and, thus, they are fools. Ravenos - I find the sounds of their exsanguination more musical than their ugly songs. Toreador - A pursuit of beauty is luxury, theirfore, wasteful. Tremere - We shall never again bear the indignity of their sorcery. The only good Tremere is the one you kill on the road back to Haquim's bosom. Tzimisce - I am surprized that our mutual hatred for the Warlocks doesn't make us better bed fellows. It is irrelevant, however, as these relics mean nothing to the modern night. Ventrue - Though they gave us leave to practice our rites in cities they controlled, it was nevertheless, the BlueBloods, who contrived to place us under clan Tremere's curse. Caitiff - Worthless chaff, fit only to be seperated from the wheat. They are rarely missed though their weak blood does us little long term good. Camerilla - Their nights are numbered, and we shall never forget the shackles they placed on us. Sabbat - To callous and classless, and so dead setagainst heeding their elder's advice that they remind me of adolescent children. CLAN QUOTE Save your breath, weak one - no one will hear your screams. Now aid me on my journey back to Haquim's grace... History Lesson |
