BatFam X VtM
Time to combine another of my 2 hyperfixations of the month. I'm gonna match each Batfam member with what vsmpire the masquerade clan i think they would be and my reasonings. Some have multiple clans they could be so I've tried to narrow it down to 1 and reason why I didn't go with another. If this was an actual AU it would probably make more sense for them all to mainly be the same clan as Bruce but this menagerie of a coterie is more interesting and fits each character, so without further ado.
Bruce Wayne
Ventrue
The blue bloods, known for their honour and pride, they rule from up above, embracing CEOs and modern aristocrats alike. For the prince of Gotham, chairman of Wayne Enterprises, I don't think there's a more perfect fit. Bruce at his best and worse embodies the values the clan of kings holds. He's a ruler through lineage, ruling his subject from up high, but the clan compulsion of arrogance and belief of knowing best make him come across as stubborn and apathetic to others concerns if he's ruled on a matter already.
The only other clans I could maybe see for bruce would be Lasombra or Toreador, with the former being know for their obtenebration and the latter for their ability to play the games of socialites. However those aspects are more masks Bruce wears when playing either brucie wayne or batman, not truly who he is.
Dick grayson
Ravnos
This isn't because he's Romani in some iterations but it's a nice extra. No, Dick is a Ravnos because he's a perfect fit. The Ravnos are the daredevils of the vampire world, their blood literally compels them to tempt fate, they also can't sleep in the same place for more than a couple of nights; what clan would fit our ex-travelling circus acrobat than them?
Truly I think Ravnos is the best fit for Dick, however some versions of him are more well known for being a seducer, and have become part of his Fannon; because of that the argument could be made for Toreador.
Jason Todd
Banu Haqim
The Assamites, judged by western kindred as frothing diablerists when really they're guardians, warriors and judges of the corrupt. Really, it was when I got to Jason that I knew I had to write all these matches down. This is the perfect fit to the point that I'm sure others must've headcannoned it. Their compulsion is judgement, forcing them to punish anyone who breaks their moral code, they also chafe against their fellow vampires; falling to a bloodlist if they taste the vitae of another kindred.
If you were writing Jason with the Fannon pit madness I could see the argument for Malkavian, and if your specifically talking about when Jason was Robin I'd say he fits more closely to Brujah; being a spitfire. But as the Red Hood? Jason is a child of Haqim.
Tim drake
Tremere
Just as choosing Jason's sealed my need to write this post, trying to choose Tim's nearly made me give up. Tim is my least read character and as such it's harder to split Fannon from Cannon, so please bare with me. The Tremere are the second youngest clan, they're also know as the Usurpers. They weren't chosen by vampirism but rather they chose it. The Tremere are hated by several clans for this transgression, including the Banu Haqim, who see their blood magic as a knock-off of their own. The Tremere are perfectionists, constantly seeking new rituals and knowledge; isolating themselves in chantries until they've got their newest project just right. Is this not Tim Drake?
I do love the flavor text this creates, being the second youngest and having beef with Jason from the get go. But on a deeper level, choosing to be Robin, being a perfectionist and also being insecure in their status as a hero/vampire? I think this is a perfect match.
Other clans I could see for Tim would be Nosferatu, being secret keepers and traders alike, or another Ventrue like Bruce, since they both come from money. However I have a better fit for the Nossies and I want to avoid repeating clans if i can.
Damien Wayne-Al Ghul
Lasombra
Like the Ventrue the Lasombra are born rulers, however, unlike the bluebloods, for the Lasombra might makes right. You're embraced into the clan when you're put through a gauntlet that systematically destroys your life; if you get back up your embraced, if not? You're left to die. The night clan coat themselves in shadows, manipulating and striking from them. They have a penchant for religion, ruling over the masses, however their bane of callousness means that they have a hard time relating to humans, sometimes even other kindred, letting more and more of their humanity slip.
If this doesn't describe the heir of the demon, who grows up in a religious, assassin cult, where he has to kill or be killed then I dont know what clan will. He's literally from the league of shadows. I also think it would irk a Ventrue Bruce for his child to be more adept with shadows than himself.
I could see Damian as a Ventrue like his father, as his behavior can be read as arrogance rather than callousness, it would also be in line with his "true heir" hang up. Also, Nanda Parbat seems to just be a copy-paste of Alamut so, along with the Banu Haqim being assassins, I could also see the argument for them claiming Damien aswell, that would also feed my favorite trope of Damien and Jason having the best brotherly bond.
Barbara Gordon
Nosferatu
Second disclaimer of the post, this choice isn't due to her disability. The Nossies are the information brokers of kindred society. Living in abandoned places, yet lying in plan sight (like a massive clocktower) the clan of the hidden employ animalism to make spy's out of rat's and city birds, if there was ever a clan who embraced the modern world it's the nosferatu. Because of this The vagrants are the most tech savvy of the clans, creating Shrek net, the dark web for vampires.
Because of this I think our information queen would be at home with the Nossies. I think Barbara is the most single-clan character but maybe also Banu Haqim? They do embrace from law enforcement after all.
Stephanie Brown
Brujah
The rebels without a cause, they always want a cause to get behind, jumping from one to the other once one no longer fits. I think for Steph, who got into the vigilante game to spite her father (very much giving Troile the younger vibes), the clan of rebels would be the perfect home. She's also bounced between the most code names: spoiler, Robin, batgirl. She's always seeking the next goal. Furthermore she's not from money, she's a punk kid from Gotham who decided to fight back. Because of this Brujah is an easy choice.
If you wanted to go with the more feral™ energy she has in Fannon I could also see the argument for Gangrel, her being the wild child, but I think she's more the wild of rebellion rather than of the woods.
Cassandra Cain
Salubri
Hear me out. Not one of the 13 however I really do think it fits, the Salubri are constantly hunted, they're one of a kind and, in a society of killers, they suffer from affective empathy, making them want to resolve the hurts of others. Just kidding, I just described cass' upbringing, actually I described both. The unicorns also have access to the widest range of disciplines naturally, suiting our skilled assassin. Also the Salubri let their childe diablerize them, giving them the best headstart in life in the most bloody way possible, similar to how Lady Shiva has a very odd way of trying to make Cass stronger.
This is the one of the most out there ones. like alot of the BatFam, Cass could also be Banu Haqim but I do think her inherent character trait of renouncing her violent nature makes her a kindred (pun intended) spirit to the Salubri.
Duke Thomas
Kiasyd
Okay so this is fully a bloodline, but stay with me. The Kiasyd are a bloodline of the Lasombra with some Faery blood mixed in, this parallels Duke's metapowers causing him to stand apart from the rest of the family, just as faery blood causes the Kiasyds to stand apart from vampire society as a whole. They're also known for their magic using Mytherceria and Obtenebration, which together I think replicate Duke's meta abilities. Lastly the Kiasyd are oddballs, they act peculiar even for vampires, much like a crime-fighting vigilante being the only one to fight villains during the day.
This could be seen as a reach, but I think my justifications are valid. Really any clan that has magic could be a fair match, a fun alternative could also be Gargoyles, as they're the only clan that can naturally stay outside during the day.
And that finishes all the BatFam members I know well enough to assign clans to. If you have any ideas for Jaro, Bluebird, Kate Cane, or even the ones I covered but disagree with let me know! I'd like to have a member to cover each clan so we're missing Gangrel, Hecata/Giovanni, Malkavian, Set/Ministry, Toreador and Tzimisce. If you made it this far thank you so much and I hope you enjoyed.

∞ KRISTEN STEWART is the BRUJAH
Warrior-philosophers is not a spectrum when it comes to Brujahs. They are known rebels and activists, some more philosophical than others. One thing is for sure: they can pack a punch! Don't ever ever ever piss off a Brujah! They may be dead but they're still surprisingly hot-blooded.
Clan 3/13 of my Halloween project around Vampire the Masquerade.

Staring at you with my big eyes
(I know nothing about vtm aside from the suckening but it really interests me and I'd love to hear about about edward and the vampire micro politics)
HELLO!!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR ASKING!!! WELCOME TO VAMPIRE POLITICS 101 EDWARD TWILIGHT IS SO SO FASCINATING TO ME and i have no idea if charlie did any of it on purpose because i dont know if he actually looked that deep into the politics of vtm to plan for any of this.
how do i start this. youre getting an essay. dear lord this is going under a cut. because i gotta explain the normal politics before i can get into why edward politics is so fun for me personally.
everything below comes with a massive banner of context that i have been obsessed with vtm for a literal 13 years. so i have a lot of opinions on how stuff can be explained mechanics and lore wise. that charlie might not agree with and/or might not have been intending the read to be because we are two different storytellers.
SO in world of darkness (the book setting) there are three main political parties. there are the Camarilla which are traditionalists who created the rules of the masquerade and they want kindred society to be united and for there to be a hierarchy. this is the governing body that charlie has implemented and plays around with. then there are Anarchs who obey the general masquerade because they recognize its usefulness but they do not believe in a true hierarchy and bending the knee to The Prince of a city. and then theres the Sabbat who think the masquerade is stupid and think that kindred should live openly and blatantly rule over humans.
charlies camarilla is so interesting from the get go because queens are not a thing. thats a charlie thing. so were already off to a fun micro politics of what the fuck? hey charlie? is The Queen part of the inner circle and the head of the camarilla of the entire world? and you just invented a title? bro? because why would she as just prince of LA be called queen? female princes are still princes. so i work under the assumption that she is part of the main governing body for the entire world camarilla not just LA. because normal princes live in their cities. if she lives in fucking romania in umber castle shes not just a normal prince.
so within the camarilla theres a bunch of jobs but the main ones charlie plays with is primogen, sheriff, and prince. and he does a decent job at explaining them. primogen are voices of their clan. they are the most powerful person in the clan in a given city and serve to represent the needs of the clan within the camarilla. not every clan gets a primogen as it depends on if theres enough camarilla kindred in that clan to warrant needing a primogen. the sheriff is the front facing enforcer of the rules. who is elected by the primogen and prince together. and then the prince is The Prince. they are like a dictator mayor. they are the one who creates and expands the masquerade rules of the city to make sure that mortals do not become aware of vampires. princes are typically not elected; they come about from coups or if the old one wants to abdicate they endorse/instate a new prince.
theres also keepers, harpys, scourges, seneschals, heralds, archons, and justicars. but explaining those does not help with my why edward is fascinating so i can go into those a different time. also because we only have maybe two examples of those within suckening.
SO IN ANARCHS which charlie never brings up to my memory theres a lot less official titles! you have the Barons which function similarly to a prince but they will kill you if you say that; hate princes with a passion. cities depending on their size will have a number of barons who control neighborhoods/sections of the city. they all work together but compete with each other to maintain their footholds in the city and to resist the princes rule. and then the other main one is Proctors who just keep tabs on whos in the territory and doing what. which can function as mini sheriffs.
so using LA as an example edward rules over the entire city but unless he killed all the anarchs in the city the specific territory of santa monica has a baron who also imposes rules on the kindred of that specific territory.
and then we have the Sabbat who charlie also never brings up. who also have their own chain of command in cities but also the world at large! the most important titles here for this talk are Bishop and Archbishop. a Bishop is going to be akin to a primogen it is a title that is given to a powerful kindred who then leads a large group of sabbat within a section of the city. bishops answer to archbishops. and an Archbishop is akin to a prince. they are the sabbat ruler of an entire city. every sabbat within that city ultimately answers to them.
a big thing with the Sabbat sect as a whole is they do not care about the masquerade. they commit mass masquerade breaches be it mass turning events or just having them run around in the wild doing whatever not caring if kine see a vampire using their powers or feeding.
Edward Twilight is a serial masquerade breacher. like theres no way around it. like yes he is a toreador so he is going to want and demand the attention of everyone. but theres a line. and one of those lines is mass ghouling an entire city and making a large portion of the mortals in your city look like you. that is an insane massive breach that is going to get the inquisition/grimslayers to raid your city because thats not normal. that is a massive red flag that vampires are there. that is a thing that only sabbat would do.
because even with charlies camarilla being his own spin on it and not 100% by the book. i can not bring myself to accept that a genuine camarilla member would pull the shit edward does. like it does not make sense to me. and thats slightly compounded by the fact that camarilla traditionally; even the toreadors; want to stay hidden. they do not like mortals knowing vampires exist they LOATHE cellphones because cellphones put a camera in everyones pocket and is the easiest way to make the entire world aware of your existence and status as a monster. and then your meet your final death when the city gets raided. camarilla toreadors chase fame and beauty but theres still a line ya know.
a sabbat on the other hand? loves a cellphone. doesn't give a shit if the world is aware of them because being known isnt a threat, its the goal. it is the goal to have humans aware that vampires are real and you can be one or to serve one.
so with all that said. i genuinely believe that Edward Twilight is an Archbishop of the Sabbat who has been playing the longcon with the Camarilla. because he is involved in the camarilla, theres no denying that. he has underlings that are clearly real camarilla and work in camarilla terms and conditions. but all of his goals that we know about just scream sabbat to me. he has been vying for the prince position trying to get that endorsement from shilo to further legitimize himself and his hold on the city, that is a fact. but the amount and types of breaches he commits are the kind no right minded camarilla would commit and he does not have an affliction that drives him to madness. so to me he comes off as a sabbat agent trying to destabilize the cams.
theres also the factor of viv and vex. traditionally in VTM, clans are predisposed to certain political sects, with special cases made for individual vampires. in lore this is because the different sects will consider entire clans just a walking masquerade breach that they don’t want to deal with. so having them be a part of the sect is rare and special. now every storyteller handles this differently some are rigid by the book and some just do what fits best for the story they want to tell. charlie ran this in v20 and by v20 lore tzimisce are purely sabbat because they are an inherent breach. they are a clan who makes weird meatball creatures and turn themselves into literal flesh monster that barely look human. and in v5 tzimisce as a whole are welcome to anarchs but only individually welcome to camarilla. charlie mixes a bit of v20 and v5 because he read them both and touchstones are a thing so we know he pulled some v5 things. but with the shit viv and vex do i just find it hard to believe theyre genuine cam who respect the masquerade. those are edwards fellow weird little sabbat guys who are helping him destabilize and take over. they made edward sexy. they are the ones performing the procedures to turn ghouls and bloodbonded vampires alike into edward clones. that is the most sabbat ass shit ive ever heard of besides mass turning events and weird meatball snuff films
edward twilight is fascinating to me regardless of if m right. because knowing charlie and his love of bits and “well wouldn’t that be silly” it is likely that edward to him is just a genuine camarilla toreador primogen who climbed the ladder and his version of the camarilla are a little more lax in some regards. or because of the bloodbonding the other primogen and deacon won’t go against edward and his mass breaches.
but for me it is so much more interesting to think of edward as an archbishop who decided to infiltrate the camarilla god knows how long ago to become a prince and then probably climb up even higher into the Inner Circle because literally too many details line up and point at that being a possibility for me to ignore as coincidence.
because we do know that this campaign was supposed to be about the political climb until they all started playing and charlie realized that the boys ended up being more interested in the relationships and personal mysteries than an actual political power struggle against each other campaign. so i KNOW he had to do some amount of research into the camarilla i just dont know how far into the other sects that research went to have him genuinely on purpose make edward a sabbat.
and i cant wait for season 2 to drop eventually so i can learn if i put in waaaay too much thought into all this because i know too much about this system. or if charlie actually did an insane amount of research on vtm politics and i picked up on clues that are genuinely there LOL
i really hope this made sense and you enjoyed it! it’s like 4 pages long and if theres anything in here that needs clarifying i will gladly talk even more or explain other things within vtm because this is my favorite system and i do Not know how to be normal about it :D

ecstasy beats with both blood and bass, the pulse of revelry in each body on the dance floor. the air is rank with iron and sweat. october 31st, thursday night. the crush of bodies drives out the fall chill. both kindred and kine are entwined in celebration ⸻ half for a life well - lived and the other for a holiday free of inhibitions. flesh glistens under the vibrant, erratic light. one could mistake the flash of fangs as the trick of a neon glow. watchful eyes from on high make sure that is the first and last of it. everyone has their fill ( of liquor, of blood, of euphoria ).
prince yi minki will be the first to admit that this is not quite his scene. the usage of clan toreador's base is but the foundation of their involvement in his going away party, his highness chagrined but grateful. flanked by his dutiful seneschal and sheriff, he remains firmly ensconced in the private booths located on the second floor of the club, accepting well wishes with a gracious smile and a dip of the head ⸻ just the sort of regality one would expect of a long - lost royal. those closest to him may venture to say that the prince appears haggard, but a sharp look silences all concerns with the swiftness of the executioner's blade. the beckoning has never been pleasant; that yi minki was a good man does not make him the exception by any means.
indeed, it seems that all the goodwill he mustered throughout both lives has been spent all on this single night, a debaucherous jubilee where it seems the masquerade is more suggestion than sentence. kindred are free to imbibe as they see fit, so long as their disappearance from the crowd is confirmed by the blood merchant. as the night wanes and mortals find themselves dead on their feet, it seems that the vampires have only just begun to hit their stride.
while the hedonists thrive in the sea of blood, those more politically minded understand what this night actually means ⸻ what, precisely, is at stake. this is a party and an arena and a boardroom and a gravesite. anyone who thinks otherwise had best watch their back.
welcome one and all to our very first event ! on halloween night, 2024, the kindred of seoul have convened in itaewon to wish the prince of the city a fond farewell before he embarks on a plane bound for cairo. while the night is supposed to be about the prince alone, the city's underbelly is abuzz with anxiety. alliances will be forged and broken, loyalties tried and tested. participation in this event is optional, though it should be noted that the court will keep track of any muses who were absent. although the masquerade is as always in full effect, the prince has adopted a slant of leniency for tonight. the scourges and hound trawl the club to dominate any humans into forgetting what slips they may have seen. as long as no one is killed ( no one anyone will miss, anyway ), the camarilla is willing to overlook any transgressions from this night alone ⸻ but that does not mean they won't hold it against you in the future.
this is part one of three for this beginning chapter. please tag all posts regarding this event #vt:farewell1 ( and feel free to use our open starter tag #vt:open ). starters for this plot drop may be posted until wednesday, november 13. our next plot drop will be on saturday, november 16 @ 10:00 pm pst. threads for scene 1 can still be ongoing during this 2nd drop but should be wrapped up by saturday, november 23.
on one last note, i deeply appreciate everyone who has taken the time to jump headfirst into our little world of darkness. it was a little dicey there for a bit, but i am so grateful that everyone's stuck around and i can't wait to see what wonderful stories we'll come together to tell !

So, going back to some of my older posts about character and setting TTRPGs let's talk about Vampire: the Masquerade. Here's real quick, a fun or stupid way to play each of the 13 clans. First though, if anyone somehow finds this who isn't familiar with the VtM lore, I'll offer a bastardized version of the disclaimer the core rulebook does; there's no such thing as a morally good PC in this game, you're going to be playing as a killer, stalker, monster, however you want to put it. Vampires are monstrous reflections of humanity, and as such can emphasize certain traits that are seen as distasteful or wrong. This isn't an excuse to be an overt and openly bigoted asshole at the table, and no GM or player should ever tolerate real world hate speech at the table when speaking OoC. We cool? Cool.
Ventrue: a new age shop owner, who sells homemade essential oils, skin care products and crystals that mark potential targets for siring based on the virtues each clan upholds. They're cursed blood makes them obsessed with very specific scents, meaning they can't feed on someone unless they're wearing something that makes them smell appealing.
Toreador: a plastic surgeon, who's idea of beauty is the imperfection of the human form. They run a budget clinic and are able to avoid losing their license due to malpractice, because they have a close personal bond with the Nosferatu, and love to skincraft them into an appearance that while still leaving them deformed, could pass as injuries or illnesses, making them less likely to violate the Masquerade. These favors give them connections to blackmail and extort anyone, enough that they can hire a Ventrue lawyer to protect them.
Gangrel: a Pational Park Ranger, who may or may not have connections to many, MANY missing 411 cases. They hold a position of neutrality between almost every faction, by upholding the laws of the Camarilla, by keeping the masquerade intact, while simultaniously cultivating their own open-air human meat restaurant. A safe place for werewolves, and other kindred to engage in their most animalistic urges, without fear of leaving evidence behind.
Malkavian: an autistic dark web information broker, that somehow knows what their customers want long before they even make contact. They have a habit of logging every email, password or other piece of identifying information that pops into their head. Breaking the fourth wall, the player could improve this by listening to business, economics or true crime podcasts during sessions, and talking as if it's a conversation they're having to what's going on at that point in game.
Tremere: a character who wants to form their own autonomous enclave, separate from any form of government be it human or kindred based. This wilderness commune is under constant surveillance by several human law enforcement agencies, and is publicly recognized as a cult, though they are petitioning to be recognized as a religion. They sire high ranking members of their organization, only after several years of indoctrination, at which point the Frog has boiled over and been reduced to a fine broth. The appeal of the cult to outsiders are the opportunity for travel, under the guise of medical and disaster relief efforts. All members are also frequently asked to donate blood for "those in need." Internally they don't believe in any religion, the player could make the argument that Kain wasn't cursed by God, but instead was the first evolutionary offshoot from mankind, and they internally view each vampire clan as related in much the same way as humans are related to other apes. This internalized vampirism racism while a massive negative trait, is effectively used by studying each and every clan solely for the purpose of learning how best to manipulate them.
Bruja: (this one's shorter than all the rest) During life they were a decorated cold war era military veteran, who was honorably discharged with injuries after certain government experiments. After their siring they have dedicated their un-life to spreading good old fashioned western values to the oppressed and impoverished parts of the world as a PMC.
Nosferatu: since almost every nosferatu have the same MO, preferred hiding spots and methods of travel, I think this clan is best defined by they're personality and view of the world. The owner of an Incel forum, who uses it both to unironically post their own thoughts and feelings, but to gather info from their users about all the Chads and Staceys in need of some punishment for their arrogance. They also frequently browse social media, and may or may not be responsible for at least a few throwaway accounts responsible for doxxing public figures. They are an absolute bitch for drama, and spend their downtime binging tea channels and Beauty-tubers but can't see the irony of this hobby.
Lasombre: an old fashioned head of a boston mafia group. He's made a fortune exploiting the working class and extorting the needy for decades, and running a successful shipyard and fishing company. His preferred targets for siring are dock workers, and local gang members that he sees as either beneficial to his criminal empire, or someone that his enemies would hate to lose. He has a unique point of view among most of the kindred, in that he doesn't discriminate among humans, Vampires or oan of the other creatures and organizations around him. They're all of equal value in his eyes, that value being equivalent to a character pip from the Game of Life, meaning tiny l, worthless bits of plastic, that take up space and are only worthy of notice when they directly impact him. His closest friend is actually a human butler, that picks out his clothes, make sure he's in proper order, and takes care of him. He will never sire this friend, as they are fully aware of his true nature and have asked him kindly to not do so. This blatant violation of the masquerade is barely tolerated as an open secret, since covering this particular leak would cause more trouble than just leaving it alone.
Tzimisce: a geneticist, who's network has a hand in every animal centric organization in the world, whether it's pet care, breeding, meat production, pageantry, racing, or law enforcement training, they can somehow be linked to it. They are fascinated by genealogy and genetics, obsessed with the true history of the world and want to prove the lineage of every clan and bloodline, simply for the satisfaction of having that knowledge. They were a successful dog breeder in life and now may or may not be practicing human and clan breeding in secret. They have a strange fascination with the Caitiff, and are regularly observed by many, acting friendly with these undesirables. They have a genuine love for animals, and would never harm any of their precious creatures, but see humans as lower than scum, utterly disgusting parasites hellbent on destroying their precious mother nature. They have no desire to sire an heir, unless eventually forced to do so, have no feelings whatsoever toward the idea of harming humans, seeing their acts as mundane or even justified, and this hatred goes so far that they frequently push themselves to the brink of frenzy just to avoid drinking from these vile creatures. Before their embrace, they had a pet dog that they loved more than anything in the world, but sadly killed during their first frenzy. They keep their friends collar on them at all times, despite the guilt they feel, it's the only thing that gives them comfort and let's them sleep at night.
Hecata: (I thought of this as an experienced player, or storyteller's PC) an elderly person, though not ancient. A member of a long lived and wealthy family dating back possibly to the Methusala. A family man, with an actual family, they sired before their embrace, with the knowledge that they will one day need to make arrangements for their children to be embraced. You take on the role of a mentor figure, teaching them the ways of the kindred, necromancy, and hunting, but are planning to, at the end of their training, have more promising of your spawn, diablerize the other.
Banu Haqim: a vigilante serial killer, think Vampire Punisher, or Dexter. Seeking out rogue kindred who've strayed from their respective code, regardless I'd they're Camarilla, Sabatt, or Anarch. The kindred you hunt are blatant violators of the masquerade and do so without even the little bit of control the Sabatt has over its members. More than anything, they are the biggest threats to kindred society as a whole and expose us all to the threat of human exposure. They are the perfect target for one such as yourself, both as self-proclaimed peacekeepers, and to satiate your own clans curse. It's your solemn duty to ensure that no evidence of kindred society is left behind.
Ravnos: a backpacker, spelunker and base jumper. They are a very popular Social Media personality and travel vlogger that enjoys documenting cave exploration and nighttime adventures into the wilderness. They know all the best tourist spots, what every kind of human blood tastes like, and won't shut the hell up about how they need to take you to Venice to try genuine Venican blood fresh from the source. They have a lot of annoying habits, and frequently humble brag about their enlightened un-life, but are generally good company and easy to get along with. You still wouldn't call them a friend though. They're the type of person that always sleeps over when they visit, but you can never remember them specifically asking if they could crash on your couch.
Ministry: You are a bio-terrorist. After your embrace, you took an interest in medical sciences for all the wrong reasons. Fascinated with your new undeath, and immunity to human illness, you start to question the limits of your new undead body, and decide to push it to new limits, concocting plagues, viruses and diseases and testing them on unsuspecting vampire populations. Occasionally, maybe, sure, some human populations get sick as well, pandemics, happen, and hundreds of thousands die each time you conduct a test, but that's the price of good science.
Caitiff: literally just don't play Caitiff. It's hard to come up with a creative or unique story for this "Clan" since they are effectively nobodies. The best comparison to be made I guess would be that Caitiff are the vampire equivalent of that weird conspiracy theorist who works in retail, has a substance abuse problem and is constantly trying to get you and all his other "work buds" to rise up and unionize against the man, but doesn't have an actual plan or any understanding on how any of that works.
Thin-bloods: Why is this a clan we can pick? Who is picking this one? Don't do it.

Dislikes- head pets in the open/outside her bed, other rabbits (she's intact) that are not Pepsi, non leafy greens, things/medicine touching her face or mouth.
Is a pet and retired brood doe. Partners- Oreo (Aunt's black otter broken mini rex). She is a retired brood doe due to carrying a recessive gene for malocclusion.
One of my most cherished memories was her trust in me. When I first obtained her, she hid behind me, when she was scared. When she couldn't (I was laying down) she jumped on my chest for "safety".
Amber
Yellow Dutch doe.

sadly, she was born with dental malocclusion. This resulted in an underbite and molar spurs. She goes for bimonthly incisor trimming.

Was in the woods for 23 days after escaping her hutch. Only would try greens after that time coincidentally.
Least favourite rabbit due to dislike of Netherland dwarfs, skittish temperament and overall grumpiness.
Only got as was told by parent to have nethie or no rabbits at all (at time we thought they were friendliest due to Hairoo and Jack the nethies, Caramel the Dutch mix was aggressive in comparison).

OK I'm pretty sure this has already been asked, but I haven't read far enough into the book to see if it's been explained, so I hope you don't mind the ask!
Are there specific clans of vampires in VTM? Or different breeds?
*slowly spins around so you can see the absolutely MANIACAL, UNHINGED grin on my face*
OHHHHHH BABY, HERE WE FUCKIN GOOOOOOOO
So, Vampire: The Masquerade is a ttrpg system first released in the 90s about vampires, part of a larger overworld called The World of Darkness, or just commonly called the 'WoD' - this, as well as vampires, includes werewolves, changeleings (faeries), Mages (magic people), demons, as well as other creatures, all of which have their own games under this system, but the one that I play (and the only one I'm interested in playing tbh bc the it's the oldest, most popular and best developed of the games) us Vampire: The Masquerade.
-
SO Thw World of Darkness is a grittier, slightly more grim-dark version of our reality. People are a bit less kinder, the shadows are a bit darker. And in those shadows, lurk vampires.
Now, in the official canon lore of the WoD, vampires are all descended from Caine - yes, that Caine. The Bible dude. As punishment for his transgression again God, God cursed him to shun the sun and forever walk the Earth. Being lonely, Caine sired three 'childer', three vampires, who then also sired more, who became the 13 Antedeluvians ('those who survived the flood') and THOSE 13 became the founders of the 13 Clans of Vampire.
The Masquerade: The one rule almost all vampires everywhere follow. The Masquerade is the deception of vampire existence to humankind, and maintaining it is paramount to everything you do AS a vampire. Humans must never, ever, ever know.
Each Clan has their own unique powers, and like. Vibe to them. (As they are the types of vampire you can choose to play in your games.)
When you are Embraced (turned into a vampire), you become the Clan you were Embrace by, ie, a Nosferatu will make another Nosferatu, a Gangrel a Gangrel. So yes, it IS a breed of vampire.
The Clans are as follows (to the best of my description lol):
Ventrue: The powerful lords of vampires, bluebloods, they desire power and to dominate others. They're behind CEOs and polititians, controlling a lot of the vampire political landscape. Their Thing is that they can only drink specific kinds of blood, a blood restriction, say, only the blood of blue eyed men, or something. you can choose what that restriction is with your character. (also this is Berd's least favorite, and I'll go into detail why further down)
Toreador: The Clan of the Rose, ie, the pretty ones. Toreador are the cultural influencers of the vampire world, and while not exclusive to, they ARE incredibly dug into the arts. Typically associated with fashion as they want to keep up with and make the latest trends in the world. Their powers are...literally being so fucking pretty. A siren-like ability, which goes just as much for the men, too.
Brujah: The Clan of the rebels! The Brujah are a clan of rabble-rouses who hate the system and want to see the world into a utopia of humans and vampires, but getting there is gonna be a chore. The Brujah's deal is that they're punks, and that means supernatural anger to go with it. They rage. Hard.
Malkavian: The Clan of the Moon, they get literal visions and whispers of the Beyond, information from outside of what any person can pick up on the street. They're literally a clan of mad oracles, driven to their derangement by the vampiric blood. A Malk's particular way of receiving this information can range from perceiving the reporter on tv telling them so, to getting flashes of visions from reading a newspaper.
Gangrel: A Clan where you kinda wanted to play a werewolf, but also a vampire. Gangrel lean into the beastial side of vampire lore, being able to best control and even transform into animals. I don't have a lot to say about Gangrel, they're a pretty straightforward clan as far as things go.
Nosferatu: The Clan of the Hidden. As the name implies, the curse of vampirism affects them by twisting their bodies into hideous forms they cannot undo or reverse with any kind of magic. Named so bc a lot of them end up looking like Max Schreck's Count Orloc. Most Nosferatu cannot participate in the wider world because of their looks endangering vampirekind, so they form large networks below cities, occupying old sewer and tram systems, forming 'Warrens'. Their Thing is that they possess very powerful invisibility powers, and have set up large subinternet networks, making them master spies and information farmers. The Nosferatu know everything about everything...as long a you're willing to trade a secret for a secret. (This is my favorite clan, if you can't tell :>)
Tremere: Nobody likes Tremere. Ok, that's not true, bad me. But they are...standouts in the vampire world (ask me about their lore, it's...wild). Tremere are blood mages, using Thaumaturgy (blood magic) to do dark rituals and keep their magic knowledge in the clan. They're essentially your 'casting class' in the game.
Ok, so, that's not even half of them, as you can count, but this is getting long, and these are all the 'major' clans that most people tend to play. I will be passing off this post to @berd-alert to tell you about the other smaller but JUST as interesting clans, but here is also a short overview of the world the WoD vampires exist in:
The clans all belong to larger political 'factions'. (Again, ask me more about the lore if you want a more in-depth explantion). These factions are based on ideologies of how vampires should interact with the human world
The Camarilla: what's considered 'mainstream' vampire, or 'Kindred' society. Every city will have an Elysium, where the Prince (can be a person of any gender, that's just the title) will preside over their court, being whatever vampires claim allegence with the Camarilla in that particular city, or, 'domain.' The Cam rule their worlds with very firm rules about interacting with humans, or 'kine'. You're expected to follow these rules and receive protection and order....or face severe and swift consequences should you put a toe out of line and someone hears about it.
The Anarchs: pretty much what it says on the box. The Anarchs oppose the Camarilla and their deadly rules, the only one they want to follow being 'don't break the Masquerade'. Full of the young, the boisterous, the new, hot blood eager to destroy the old system and build something new.
The Sabbat: these vampires say hang the rules all together, fuck the Masquerade, humans are prey or playthings, and vampires being stronger and immortal should rule the world. pretty much, if you want to play a vampire who loves blood and destruction, ie an evil player game (bc those are always fun heheh) this is the faction for you.
WOOF, OK, I THINK THAT'S ABOUT IT. Again, if you have specific questions, just ask me or Berd bc they're just as deep into this as I am, and knows lots of cool, intricate lore. But that's about it for right now! I highly reccomed looking up some youtube videos about this, as there is a TON of supplementary and educational videos out there for it! And also a video game, Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, which is from 2004 and an INCREDIBLE cult-classic, to match the Lost Boys in terms of iconic vampire media.
Love you Cherry!!!

I adore your Lynnmanda vampire art, do you have any headcanons about their dynamic? I'm really interested to hear!
So before I write anything about this au: I'm basing it on the tabletop RPG Vampire: The Masquerade. The Vampires in the vtm universe are separated into 13 clans that set characteristics between its members.
The reason I'm telling you all of that is because Amanda's clan is actually important in their dynamics as she is a Malkavian. Malkavians have the insight of the future but are cursed with madness.
So, to the headcanons:
Lynn is the only one who can understand Amanda's charades about her visions and helps her when everything in her mind doesn't make sense anymore.
Amanda, as a Malkavian, loves to prank everyone she knows including Lynn. Lynn hates it most of the time but indulges Mandy as the pranks she sets for her are the lightest.
Amanda is the most humane of the pair in this au as Lynn is way older and desensitized in terms of empathy and all that.
But they are both unhinged as they are still vampires.
They are part of a group led by John against the Camarilla (Vampire government) and Amanda is way more loyal to their cause than Lynn is. Lynn is only loyal to Amanda and focuses on their safety alone.
Lynn loves to be in control and Amanda loves being a brat.
#lynnmanda#amanda young#lynn denlon#shotgunshipping#gabriela will tag along sometime later as I ship all of them together because why not?

@nikatyler's 13 Deadly Nights of CAS Challenge, Prompt 4: Born Monstrous
Welcome to Clan Nosferatu, little fledgling. Niko was turned very recently, and unfortunately for them, by a quite low generation Vampire. Which means, the Nosferatu Clan Bane hit them like a freight train. That's not going to stop them, though. They might look scary, their face a Masquerade breach in itself, but Niko loves people, cute things, dancing, music, fun and everything good in the world. And they aren't going to let their Bane stop them from enjoying all of that.

so as i’ve mentioned before on this blog i have made a small art challenge for myself this month where i design a character from each of the 13 clans from vampire the masquerade :) i’m doing them in alphabetical order, so this first one i made is a banu haqim kindred! he’s your typical lawyer-turned-vigilante archetype, which i felt was a safe and simple way to start off this challenge. i don’t really like his outfit, but if i’m still into vtm next year i can always just do this challenge again with new designs teehee
#sorry for no funny caption but i needed to yap#my art#digital art#vampire the masquerade#vampire the masquerade bloodlines#vtm#vtmb#banu haqim

Another World of Darkness related post. Also, an appeal to global fans of pulp and urban fantasy.
There are more English speakers across Asia (or people who are Asian and migrated elsewhere) than ever. So, I feel justified in asking this.
International WoD Fans from countries and cultures that are actually Asian: If you folks were to re-do Vampire: the Masquerade's canon with Asian history, in the context of V:tM, how would you do it?
Would you try and salvage what they had going with the Kindred of the East supplements, where they tried to introduce the Kuei-Jin? Or is that just an unsalvagable Frankenstein's Monster mess, marrying too many different Asian cultures' figures into an Orientalist westerner made nightmare borg of a game template?
Because of the progressive nature of many fans and writers of WoD and the inescapable Eurocentrism of.. y'know.. playing a European folklore origin vampire, and conscientiousness of not wanting to treat the western vampire as a supreme folklore figure when there's so much rich mythology and supernatural horror figures across Asia, modern western urban fantasy writers hesitate to mix them. They fear coming across as, "my phantom folklore figure is inherently more powerful and dominant than yours, so mine wins and populates Asia" Eurocentrists, and not giving the native folklore figures their due as significant, meaningful and powerful in their own right. Kind of why they tried to make Kuei-Jin, the setting's, "kindred of the East," so different and inspired by Taoism and Buddhism and Oriental culture thoughts on death, the soul and the afterlife, in the first place. But it unfortunately fell flat.
As an alternative to trying to have the entire world fall into the mold of European style vampires and judeo-christian mythology that started with Caine, they introduced more Taoist, Buddhit and Shinto influenced hungry dead and existential mythologies. This became a different creature to the European Vampire that populated Asia and kept the western vampire from dominance in the landmass.
But it also became a gigantic embarrassment in the modern era, to where a great deal of thought and talk has come of retconning the Kuei-jin from existence as a massive mistake on the side of westerners that just seemed more of an insult than an attempt to validate the differences in philosophy and culture. The problem is, that still leaves a great big gaping hole in the timeline and narrative where European vampires, which are expansionistic and play underground, invisible landgrab games, just.. have no history in Asia to speak of. For no reason. It's a great big vacuum in the story and it's a shame to leave it unfilled.
I'm curious what actual native Asian WoD fans think or thought of Kindred of the East, and how they feel about alternatives to Kuei-Jin, such as just.. making the Asian vampires... Cainites. If you were to add to the WoD canon and timelines that already exist across Europe, its colonies and other parts of the world, how would you exhibit the Cainite brand of vampirism across Asia?
Would you write the histories of the existing clans getting appropriate bloodlines and regional variants? Or keep them consistent, like Ventrue, Gangrel and Toreador?
Or would you invent entire new clans with different progenitors? If not the 13 original clans sired by Caine's children, then whom?
Please share your thoughts.

∞ ETHEL CAIN is the TREMERE
I'm deep into Vampire the Masquerade V5 lore, trying to write new arcs for my Hecata oc and it got me buzzing with an idea.
So I'm starting this Halloween special serie centered around the 13 VTM clans. Opening the ball is the clan Tremere and Ethel Cain has the perfect dark witchy vibes. I can picture her perfectly hands covered in blood preparing for a blood sorcery ritual. (Also, she's definitely a follower of Carna).
One thing about the most controversial clan, never let them have a drop of your Vitae, they already know TOO MUCH.
En ce moment je suis plongée dans le lore Vampire la Mascarade V5 pour préparer un nouvel arc pour mon oc Hecata et j'ai eu une idée.
Du coup je me lance dans une série spéciale Halloween autour des 13 clans de VTM. Pour ouvrir le bal, je vous présente le clan Tremere représenté par Ethel Cain qui a les vibes parfaite de sorcière. J'arrive à parfaitement l'imaginer les mains dans le sang en train de préparer un rituel de sorcellerie du sang. (Je pense d'ailleurs qu'elle fait partie de la Maison Carna).
Si vous devez savoir une chose sur le clan le plus controversé, ne les laissez jamais récolter une goutte de votre Vitae. Ils en savent déjà trop.

246 days into daily art
And here it is! I'm putting the pen down, and leaving it alone! Prototype 12! Originally, it was going to be my backup character for my partner's VTM chronicle, the first artificial vampire! But now, it has become a character all of its own! I would've posted the timelapse for this piece, but it was 13 minutes long and wouldn't even export!
I'm thinking about making a comic, starring Prototype 12 and its ghost roommate, Ghost! Yet another project to distract my many other projects!
Because I don't wanna throw out the VTM character I've made, perhaps you'd like to see it! It has a Consentualist predator type. These were the advantages and flaws that gave birth to its character!
Advantages
(5) Unbondable
(3) Iron Gullet
(2) Good Sized Haven (abandoned subway station)
(2) Haven: Postern
(5) Ultra Rich (it can hack the internet really good :) )
Flaws
(1) Folkloric Bane: Holy Water (because it is a robot, and the water shorts it out :) )
(1) Haven: Creepy (it's an abandoned subway station!)
(1) Haven: Haunted (it has a ghost roommate, named Ghost)
(2) Known Blankbody (it's on the run from, basically, Amazon, far scarier than any government)
(4) Deadly Enemies (corporate hit squad)
(2) Infamy (you know, maybe this one is a bit too similar to Known Blankbody)
(1) Dark Secret: Masquerade Breacher
(1) Prey Exclusion: Nonconsenting
(1) Suspect
(1) Baneful Blood: Voidborn (my homebrew VTM clan! search my blog for #voidborn)
Its touchstones and convictions are...
Ghost, 12's ghost roommate, told it what dying feels like! So, 12 gained the conviction:
Kill only in self defense
The scientist who helped it escape said they'd do anything to help Prototype 12 get free from Violet Robotics, and, they did! Prototype 12 admired this commitment to keeping their word, so, 12 gained the conviction:
Always keep your sworn word

4. What generation are they?
12.
5. Who is their sire?
Frater Trismegistos.
6. What was their relationship to their sire? Were they close in any way or mere strangers?
Her sire is like a father to her. He trained her in magic.
7. How did their sire treat them?
Like a father.
8. Was their sire with them after their embrace?
Yes for a long while. He helped her to lead her own chantry.
9. Do they have a childer?
No and she does not want one at the moment.
10. What is their relationship to that childe if they do have one?
11. When was their embrace?
1968.
12. What happened that lead up to their embrace?
She didn't knew she will become a vampire. They told her that it is a magic ritual.
13. Was their embrace painful? (Either emotionally or physically)
No, the opposite. She felt kinda high, because of the ritual.
14. How did they initially feel after being embraced? Did they like being reborn into something knew or did it take them a while to cope with their new reality?
First it was a shock but then she was amazed by her new powers.
15. Are they presumed to be dead or are they still acting as though they are alive to the general public?
When she was alive, she already acted as though she were dead, so there is no real difference from before.
16. How good are they at acting “alive”?
She doesn't get out much, and people come to her 'esoteric shop.' People sort of expect to see a strange person in a store like this.
17. What are their thoughts on the Camarilla?

18. What are their thoughts on thinbloods?
She does not care about them.
19. What are their thoughts on the Sabbat?
Thinks that they are worthless animals.
20. What are their thoughts on the Anarchs?
She does not like them, but do not hate them as much as she hates the Sabbat.
21. What is their predator type?
Scene Queen. She has a few followers in the 'esoteric shop' who allow her to bite them, believing it will enhance their magical abilities. Perhaps some are simply indulging a particular fetish.

She has hidden rooms in her 'esoteric shop' where she lives.
29. Do they frequently change locations or do they have a fixed location where they live?
Fixed location.
30. Do they have a clan that they do particularly like?
She is in love with the Ventrue. She admires their status, wealth, and manners. Sometimes, she wishes she could switch clans, especially because, as a Tremere, she feels less free than others.
31. Do they have a ghoul?
Yes, a few.
32. Do they like their ghoul if they do have one?
Yes, most of them.
33. Would they like to have a ghoul if they don’t have one?
34. What are their thoughts on blood dolls?
She have some until she turns them into ghouls if she thinks they deserve it.
35. How old is your OC up until their death?
36.
36. How old are they now, continuing through their embrace?
92.
37. What age are they? (Childer, Neonate, Ancilla, etc.)
Although she is quite young, she is somewhat of an Ancilla. As a Tremere, she had to prove that she deserves to be part of this clan and has worked so hard that she now has her own chantry.
38. Do they care about the taste of blood?
That doesn't interest her and is one of the few things that she doesn't envy the Ventrue for.
39. Could they easily decipher what a Malkavian is saying?
Not easily, but because she does Tarot, she understands the madness of seeing things from the future. One of her best friends is a Malkavian, so she is accustomed to the nonsense they speak.
40. Would they ever commit diablerie if given the chance?
Depends on it.
41. Would your OC switch their clan if given the chance? Why or why not?
There are times when she would like to switch to Ventrue, but at the end of the day, she is too proud to be a Tremere.
42. Suppose they weren’t embraced by their clan, which other clan would they thrive in?
Maybe she would have become a Malkavian because one of her best friends is Malkavian, while the rest of her friends are Tremere.
43. What are their best attributes?
Composure, Intelligence, Resolve and Manipulation.
44. What are their best skills?
Etiquette, Awareness and of course Occult.
45. What are their disciplines?
Blood sorcery and Auspex
46. What are their ambition(s) if any?
To become the most powerful sorceress and restore the clan to glory.
47. What are their desire(s) if any?
To understand the true extent of her powers.
48. Detail things about your OC you spent a lot of time on!
About how old she is.
49. Detail your OC’s backstory!
She was born in Austria. Her biological father cursed her and then abandoned her. Her mother attempted to kill her. She had to fend for herself on the streets until she met her foster father, Frater T. (it sounds strange, but this is what I share with her). He taught her the art of magic, and soon his Chantry became her home. It was very important to her to make him proud, and she gradually rose through the ranks until she was accepted into the Clan through a 'ritual' in 1968 and became a vampire.
In 2004, she flew to America to attend a Marilyn Manson concert in L.A. There, she was welcomed in the Chantry by Strauss, who informed her that the Prince had been captured and would soon be executed. Subsequently, she met LaCroix, who used his charm to coax her into helping him fake his death. Initially, he thought he could simply go into hiding, but she had other plans and took him back to Austria as a sort of 'trophy.' She keeps him imprisoned in the basement and occasionally tests various elixirs on him that she brews herself, most of which are aphrodisiac potions. ;)
In 2008, the Inquisition occurred, and she had to go into hiding for an extended period. She found refuge in the Czech Republic and Russia for a while, until she returned and opened an esoteric shop, gaining followers. However, these followers are unaware that she is a vampire and simply believe that she is a typical New Age guru whom they follow. She feeds on them. From 2008 to 2017, LaCroix was hidden in a cellar vault in the 1st district of Vienna, spending his time in torpor. Since 2017, he has been located in the esoteric shop's basement.
Now, she is secretly trying to restore the Tremere to their former glory in Vienna.
50. Wild card! Sender asks a specific question in regards to your OC
This one I do not understand. ^^;
Well it was fun to answer the questions. ^^
