Guide to the Camarilla
From the White Wolf Wiki, the most complete White Wolf reference
Guide to the Camarilla is one of the core supplements for the Revised Edition of Vampire: The Masquerade, along with its companion volume, Guide to the Sabbat. It is the definitive guide to the Camarilla: its function, history, secrets and organisation, as seen through the eyes of its major clans. It also covers the more advanced powers and specific skills of its members.
[edit] Summary
From the White Wolf catalog:
- Roses watered with blood
- It has been over five centuries since the curtain of the Masquerade was drawn across the stage of the Kindred. It has been five centuries of secrecy, tradition and lies, five centuries of hidden elegance and terror.
- It has been five centuries since anyone knew the truth.
- Now, at last, the curtain will be drawn back. The lies will be exposed. And maybe, just maybe, the truth will be revealed to you.
- The Guide to the Camarilla contains:
- All-new material, from Lasombra antitribu to anarch fashion tips;
- Expanded Discipline powers, Merits and Flaws and additional tools for creating a Camarilla character;
- The history, rituals, customs and secrets of the largest sect of vampires in the world.
