Fallen Angels

by Andrew Cram (19 Oct 94)

Nicknames: Angels, Demons

Parent clan: Caitiff (Pander antitribu)

Organization: Camarilla

Status: Greater Bloodline

The Fallen Angel Bloodline was founded less than a decade ago by an enigmatic Pander antitribu in Seattle. In the few years since it has spread throughout the America's and Australia but has yet to reach Europe.

This bloodline is causing much concern in vampiric society, rumors abound that they are the pawns of the Setites, Baali or something far worse. It's members however have not done anything that would support these rumors, indeed the Angels are the less violent and 'evil' of Vampires often helping to protect mortals in danger.

All members of this bloodline are male, they are also all members of the Camarilla (Although unconfirmed reports indicate at least one kindred of similar appearance and abilities in the Sabbat) and are pushing for full Clan status including their own Justicar.

Appearance: Angels have a unique appearance. All have a rating of 5 in appearance due to extensive use of Vicissitude, Black and Gold eyes (Serpentis) and Bat wings extending from their backs (Viceratika). Many are also completely hairless, although some have very long hair. They wear either jeans and little else or stylishly tailored suits with large coats or capes.

Haven: Angels have shown no prefered havens with as many living in the sewers as in penthouses.

Backgrounds: Most recruits are in their twenties, typically university students.

Character creation: Most Angels come from mainstream backgrounds and are most typically either visionaries or caregivers. Social attributes are usually primary as are knowledges.

Clan disciplines: Sanguinus, Serpentis, Viceratika. Most also learn Vicissitude. (Must start with at least one dot in Serpentis and Viceratika)

Weaknesses: The Angels primary weakness there appearance. Their extensive use of Vicissitude is also starting to have an effect on the mental stability of some angels. They are unable to feed from female humans.

Organization: It is unclear exactly what structure this bloodline maintains although the founder is still thought to be in control. The Tremere whisper that all members of the clan are bloodbound to each other although most doubt these claims. All Angels within a given city seem to be equal with the oldest acting as a kind of spokesman.

Gaining clan prestige: The easiest ways to gain prestige is to gather personal power, and to spread the clans influence and status. Less straightforward is the aiding of select mortals or defeating the plans of the clans enemies.

Stereotypes:

Brujah:

Gangrel:

• "Kindred spirits, give them help when they need it and don't bother them when they don't"

Malkavian:

• "Steer clear lest there madness rub off on us. Still there is something terribly human about them."

Nosferatu:

• "Look beyond the surface, these kindred are the most honest of the lot. They will be valuable allies, help them whenever possible but do NOT offer to fix their looks."

Toreador:

• "They often find us living art - treat them well"

Tremere:

• "They are our main opponents, don't give them an excuse to assault us. Support those who oppose them but don't do anything directly, YET.

Ventrue:

• "The sects leaders are adequate, they do not threaten us and they may one day actually help us"

Caitiff:

• "Our little brothers. Remember they are our roots but we will not go back. Recruit those that are worthy, do not get involved with those that are not.

Assamites:

• "Professionals, don't get in their way, but if you do fight them, do it well"
