The Gates of Damascus

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Thunder in the East

Since the time of the Second City, the Children of Haqim have been the judges of the Children of Caine. Yet times are changing and, in recent years, many of the Banu Haqim who arrive in the Levant are harsh and uncompromising, wanting to impose their own ideas of order upon the Cainites of the land. Regardless of the reasons for the rise of this new breed amongst the clan, their appearance is seen by many Syrian Cainites as an ominous sign. There are some who claim to have heard the thunder in the east, warning of an approaching storm.

Syria by Night

The Gates of Damascus is a location sourcebook for Vampire: the Dark Ages, focused on Syria. The book contains general information on the region, as well as chapters on two key domains, the cities of Raqqa and Amman, providing information on the history, geography, and Cainite populations of these places.

This is great -another top notch sourcebook. Highly recommended.

One note -any chance for the character sheet of Ali al-Jundi to be included? Appears on the relationship diagram, is missing from writeups.

Thank you for your comment. Ali al-Jundi is currently in the city of Aleppo, plotting in support of his masters, and threatening to unravel some of the carefully-laid plans of Salmun al-Nasr. We will see more details of Ali in a planned future chapter in The Gates of Damascus.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
