Giovanni Chronicles II: Blood & Fire is the second installation of the Giovanni Chronicles. Taking place in 1666, it follows the Children of Isaac more than two centuries after the circumstances of their chaotic Embrace. The Children are asked by the Founders to investigate why the Giovanni seem to be stealing rare manuscripts, and what exactly they are plotting to do with them.
Summary
- From the White Wolf Catalog:
- Continuing the saga begun in The Last Supper, Blood and Fire embroils the characters in a deadly struggle against the nascent Giovanni clan.
- Its members, foul necromancers all, seek nothing less than apotheosis.
- Only the characters have a chance to thwart the Giovanni's schemes and prevent the clan from ascending to ruleship over all existence.
