Official video for them is out! I know we’re getting another clan reveal tomorrow. I’m betting tomorrow is Toreador and next week Ventrue(woot!) if they’re going by order on the artwork for each clan page. Poor thin-bloods, though. No matter if in ES universe or World of Darkness, they’re always looked down upon by their vampire superiors. Are Thin Bloods considered a clan? Khajiit read an article in PCGamer magazine at the the local bookstore/coffee shop that said besides starting as a Thin Blood, only 5 clans will be playable. The devs supposedly didn’t reveal which 5 clans those would be. The journalist guessed those would be Brujah, Malkavian, Nosferatu, Tremere, and Ventrue. Khajiit thought that makes sense, though he hates for any of the clans from the original to be left out. Someone over at Beth.net said the devs were planning on releasing other clans in free updates, but this one cannot verify that due to lack of source. According to the website, they’re labeled as a clan so I’m guessing they are? And that’s right, we get to join clans later in the game but how? I’m not sure. Since lorewise, thin-bloods aren’t really able to join clans unless they perform a ability that they take all of that vampires power. I think it’s called diablerie or something. It’s an illegal act in the vampiric community. Oh I think Tremere are in. Developers said if people wanted to play an original mage-like character there’s a clan for that. And on the official website each clan icon had a different picture that matches the nature of said clan. Case in point, a ritualistic room with pentagrams on the ground. They also said of players just wanted to punch things, there’s a clan for that, too. I’m thinking Brujah? The anarchists, right? They said they are indeed going to release more clans. We also have a werewolf-centric expansion/dlc coming named “Season of the Wolf.” I’m excited! I think we get more news today! Tremere have been confirmed! Yep! They leaked it last night and it was officially confirmed today. So that’s three clans confirmed: Thinblood, Brujah and Tremere. Fingers crossed for Ventrue next week! -------------------- And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed.
I long for scenes where man hath never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator, God, And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass below—above the vaulted sky.” |

I don't see how you can do VtM without Ventrue. I expect Gangrel, Malkavian, and Nosferatu as well. With Tremere and Brujah, that's really the core clans.

They could probably just do Toreador for the folks who like charming silver tongued devil types but Khajiit would rather see Ventrue! -------------------- "Family is an odd thing, is it not?

Brigitte was fooling around with her mind making her think she was on something that was spinning and then after she got the invitation from her and ended the conversation, Maria started puking up red stuff. Khajiit just pretends it’s all the red wine she had been drinking. Pretty sure that's an after effect of certain vampire powers. -------------------- Lol bird

Why making a human think they are on something that is spinning round and round causes them to vomit up blood is beyond Khajiit’s understanding. -------------------- "Family is an odd thing, is it not?

... Brigitte entered the mansion to find the party in full swing. After speaking with some of the guests and finding them boring, her vampiric instincts revealed to her the existence of hidden doors that led to secret passageways within the walls. There were also two way mirrors in main areas so someone could observe what’s going on undetected. While exploring these passages she came across some locked bedroom and bathroom doors. One locked bedroom had a prostitute and a man who was passed out on a bed, and a locked bathroom had two party goers “powdering” their noses. Down one passage a two way mirror looked out into a large library, where Brigitte observed one of the Giovanni’s hired thugs open a secret door behind a book case that led to a tunnel. After draining the goon dry, Brigitte continued down the tunnel and found herself in an embalming room where she found the book Pisha wanted. She also discovered that the embalming slab functioned as an elevator that led to the Giovanni crypt below the mansion. Being necromancers, the Giovanni has some reanimated dead staggering around in the crypts so Brigitte had to fight through the undead until she finally found the room holding the Ankaran Sarcophagus. It was being guarded by two Kuei Jin, names the Chang Brothers, who revealed that LaCroix and Ming Xiao had an alliance and that Brigitte’s presence their violated that alliance. Brigitte defeated the Changs and loaded up the Sarcophagus into the back of a truck for transport to Ventrue tower...

The Chatty Chang Brother Sarcophagus secured and ready for transport -------------------- "Family is an odd thing, is it not? Defined by blood, separated by blood, joined by blood.

The great marble hall looks really cool.
Of course there are zombies in the crypts! Where else would they be after all? The Changs have some serious tats. I take it LaCroix is a Ventrue? I understand the character from the game is named after Lucien LaCroix from Forever Knight. I love the TV show. He was one of the coolest parts. He was an awesome villain, especially in the second season, because he didn't want to kill the protagonist. Instead he wanted to bring him back around to his own way of thinking, that humans are nothing but cattle. They had a very interesting Father-Son relationship. -------------------- |

LaCroix is indeed a Ventrue and Khajiit remembers watching Forever Knight a few times on SyFy!

LaCroix on that show was definitely a Ventrue, and thusly Nick and Janette too, since he made them. Though Nick might be considered a Thin-Blood, as he is trying to become human again. In a few episodes he showed himself to be less vulnerable to other vampire's weaknesses - like sunlight - because of his quest to become mortal. -------------------- |
