Bloodlines of the New Millennium
Bloodlines of the New Millennium focuses on bloodlines that have risen in recent years. Many of these bloodlines are small¸ insular gatherings of Kindred with specific agendas and actionable goals. Still¸ from time to time Kindred of these bloodlines occasionally find cause to become involved with the Danse Macabre. Storytellers can include members of these bloodlines as antagonists in a Vampire: The Requiem campaign¸ shadowy threats in another Chronicles of Darkness game¸ or as player characters.
The bloodlines presented in this book are:
- Golden Masters: This Ventrue bloodline of computer geniuses has claimed cyberspace as their domain.
- Pythies: This bloodline of Clan Mekhet is cursed with knowledge¸ foresight¸ and the mistrust of anyone with whom they share a secret.
- Lycan: This Gangrel bloodline experiences mutation and transformation as each frenzy brings their beast closer to the surface.
- Order of Ecstatic Transmogrification: This Daeva bloodline uses arcane arts to warp the flesh while seeking the boundaries of pain and pleasure.
- Slasher: This bloodline of Clan Nosferatu revels in their own monstrosity¸ terrorizing their prey in isolated groups¸ far from the prying eyes of other Kindred.
Bloodlines of the New Millennium also includes three new Disciplines¸ unique to the bloodlines in this book:
- Augury: the ability to percieve and manipulate the future and fate.
- Chirurgery: the ability to alter the flesh of both Kindred and Kine.
- Network: the ability to connect with and manipulate telecommunication devices through the power of the Blood.
