[edit] Summary
From the White Wolf catalog:
- Children of the God of Storms
- The Followers of Set are a clan bound together not only by blood, but by ties of faith. Their priests have access to secrets that would break the minds of lesser vampires; even the youngest Setite childe has passed the Gates of Revelation. They claim descent from a god, and prophesy the time of his return—and who is to prove them wrong?
- Clanbook: Followers of Set Includes:
- An in-depth look at the Clan of the Serpent: their rituals, dogma and ambitions
- Treeatments of alternate Setite faiths, including the voudoun Children of Damballah and the bloodthirsty Tlacique
- Expanded Serpentis powers, clan lore, a new Path of Enlightenment and more
[edit] The Healing Power of Medicine
Fiction. Marla Kenyon, a meth-addicted prostitute kept in slave-like conditions, is bought from her pimp and tutored for the Embrace by Renenet, daughter of Sutekh.
[edit] Chapter One: A History Of Lies
A history of the clan written by Josué Pagnol, a.k.a. Manetho the Younger, in a letter to a former colleague to whom he had lied about his lineage. Pagnol reveals the origin of Set (in Setite lore, the first vampire), the clan's domination of Egypt and proliferation across the world, and the concerns of the Serpents as they enter the Final Nights and near the time of Set's return.
[edit] Chapter Two: After Such Knowledge
A treatment of the Setites as they exist tonight. First covers their beliefs, notably the existence of the Aeons, godlike beings who rule humankind and jealously hide the truth that Set revealed to his childer - that all beings may become as powerful as gods. Also examines Setite practices, from the Path of Typhon and its opposing doctrine, the Path of Sutekh; common rituals and observances; Setite bloodlines; their relationships with the other clans; and Setite traits, including Backgrounds, Abilities, advanced Discipline powers, and a brief section on the various forms of blood sorcery practised by different Setite groups (Akhu, Wanga, Sadhana and Nahuallotl).
[edit] Chapter Three: Broken Images
Character templates, notable Setites and a sample brood, the Repairers of Reputations.
[edit] Background Information
[edit] Memorable Quotes
