| These ancient vampires, if they stil exsist at all, are likely the most powerful creatures in the world.Members of the Third Generation, the Antediluvians are only two steps removed from the first vampire, Caine. Antediluvians, when they choose to rise from their long sleep,affect all with whom they come in contact; according to the few fractured accounts of their doings, they possess virtually godlike power. According to Kindred legend, there were 13 original Antediluvians, though some have allegedly been destroyed.Their eternal struggle, the Jyhad, touches all Kindred, and innumerable layers of manipulation and deception make the plots of these Ancients almost imperceptable. |
