vampire the masquerade has quite a lot going on for it it has more history in it than werewolf the
apocalypse and that's saying a lot because I've done a lot of werewolf the apocalypse thus far
in today's video i wanted to talk a little bit about the vampires of the masquerade vampire
the masquerade i just wanted to give a high level overview of the clans similar to my changing breed
video that i did for the werewolves and then i do plan to deep dive in the future each one of these
clans tell you about them from the perspective of the 20th anniversary edition the newest edition of
vampire fifth edition and also give a werewolf perspective on the clans so there's a lot to
cover if you're interested in following me on this journey as i progress through it then please hit
that subscribe button with that bell notification so you know when my videos are available if you
do find some value out of the video i will be discussing my Patreon at the end so there will be
that the assemites as they were known in the 20th anniversary edition or as clan banu haquim in its
fifth edition naming convention they are the clan of assassins those lovable little exterminators of
humans immortals they have a secret fortress in the middle east which is where they originally
hail from but are not exclusive from that location anymore they do have a negative perception when
it comes to some of the other vampire clans but they see themselves as protectors and guardians
scholars who are trying to distance themselves from the jihad if i had to hazard a guest this
particular vampire clan if they had to work with some werewolves it would probably be the
shadow lords although they don't come from the same place the shadow lords have in the past
worked with vampires to their own ends the bruja clan are lone wolves loners who tend to move
off into the woods they might be a little more susceptible to tinfoil hat conspiracy theories
although maybe they actually know what's going on you never know they do however have a little bit
of a problem when it comes to rage and so they have a tendency to go into frenzy a little bit
more often than other clans if this particular clan was to work with any werewolves i would
imagine they would probably work with the bone gnawers the gangrel are masters of animals animal
husbandry they tend to have very well trained pets and they tend to resemble these pets in their own
physical appearance they do tend to live on the fringes of society as well mainly somewhere where
they can raise their animals in fifth edition of vampire clan hakata replaces two vampire clans
from 20th anniversary edition and earlier than that clan cappadocian and the giovanni in fifth
edition these two clans represent basically the clan of death the giovanni from previous editions
were essentially necromancers the cappadocians were also masters of spirits and the soul
so it makes sense that these two clans in the modern game would be merged together the giovanni
were more like a mafia style family and the way i would interpret this if i was playing one now
it would even if you were in clan hakata i would still play it as if it was part of a mob family
or a vampire mob style family the la sombra are very proud they have extreme control over shadow
and darkness not to be confused with death they are extremely self-interested and self-centered
they exist for their own success in their eyes the strong rule and the strong get to make the
rules the ghetto fenris would almost respect this mentality but but they don't but but they might
clan malkavian are some of the most infamous vampires because [ __ ] be crazy they tend to
have a lot of weird compulsions they also tend to have a lot of very weird quirks
and a lot of them tend to like practical jokes some of which range from the innocent
to the quite gruesome clan ministry formerly known as followers of set they are a very religious
movement and they've adjusted themselves to be more modern as a religious organization
they have gone out to protect their ancient artifacts at least where they know they are
and the orthodox settigs believe that set will one day return they refer to themselves as a clan
as mesu bedshet or the children of rebellion if you're running a vampire game and you wanted to
have some werewolves in it it would be possible that this particular clan of vampires would work
with the children of gaia at least that's what i can see from the top of my head there would need
to be a compelling reason but it could be done the nosferatu are the disgusting horribly disfigured
vampires that you see living in the sewers they're the ones that pop out of the toilet and bite you
in the ass they are very effective spymasters and they deal in information nosferatu's would
probably clash quite a bit with the bone gnawers i can also see them having some significant clashes
with the ratkin clan ravnos are mentalists they make you see things that aren't there or not
see things that are actually happening they do have very specific and unique desires and are
fairly beholden to these desires as well being that they do practice their art of deception and
theft on basically anyone they can i can see this clan working somewhat with the nuwisha and the
nuwisha are tricksters i can see them working well together or terribly together depending on which
depending on how strong the personalities are the toriador clan they exude sexual energy they are
very charged when it comes to 18 plus content they idolize beauty and being revered by their thralls
the vampire legends that exist around seduction and luring their prey with their bodies
that's this group the tremere are your vampire warlocks they are a very powerful clan and
they are very well entrenched in vampire society they are masters of thaumaturgy secret societies
and they have a very strict hierarchy which they very much enforce the tzamesi are very
old they are bone mages they warp their flesh and bone of not only themselves but others which is
very painful if you're on the receiving end of one who is angry they are trying to push
the boundaries of what a vampire can be what it can evolve to if you ever met tzemsi in person
they would be very polite upon initial greetings but the more you got to know them the more the
onion would unravel and the more monstrous they would become clan ventrue they like to create
their vampires from kings queens warlords knights anybody that was of extreme importance and extreme
wealth this is also a very wealthy clan they are also the most vocal supporters of the camarilla
and the masquerade that is a quick rundown of all of the clans that are in vampire the masquerade
i will be doing some more in-depth videos on each clan so if you want to see one specific
please let me know in the comments below i would also like to talk about them in these videos from
a werewolf perspective we're trying to tie in a werewolf perspective we'll see how much i have
