Shrouded Legacies

ADD TO WISHLIST >

"Our Elders are lying to us! Hell, their Elders have lied to them! The 'Thirteen Clans' are a myth perpetuated by those who stand to profit from it. Vampires are supposed to have been around for, what, six thousand years? More? But no one thought to start killing ancients and usurping clans until a handful of centuries ago? What were they doing all that time? Playing happy families?!
I've walked in the shadows, venturing deep into the fringes of this world. I've met blood drinking things that deny any connection to a biblical Cain. I have seen horrific feats of vitae that'd make a warlock blush.
There is no difference between clans and bloodlines. The lesser lineages are just the losers in some ancient struggle and the survivors are still out there, man! Holding a thousand-year grudge and thirsting for blood and vengeance!"

- Gloria Wix, Anarch truth seeker, three weeks before her final death.

Shrouded Legacies presents six new clans of vampires, each with their own unique signature discipline. These are to be used however the Storyteller wishes, whether as new and interesting character options for your players, or as inscrutable antagonists to thwart their ambitions. Within this book, you will find;
  • The bewitching Clan Estea, social parasites that depend on their close relationship with humanity, and the soul-bending secrets of Caritas, the art of controlling the emotions of others.
  • The terrifying Clan Haljura, outcasts whose very presence inspires both hatred and fear, and the gruesome art of Foedus, whose power ranges from grotesque bodily control to stealing the skins and minds of their victims.
  • The arcane Clan Kimeris, wise sages and ambitious sorcerers who seek out the occult secrets of the world, and the mystical discipline of Veneficium, which allows them to tap into potent sources of magical power beyond the reach of lesser vampires.
  • The monstrous Clan Storverkr, whose alien forms and compulsions call to mind both ancient myth and modern cryptids, and the mighty power of Mutare, the birthright that allows them to transform into formidable and uniquely dreadful creatures.
  • The proud Clan Stryge, keenly honed specialists who value order and unity above all else, and the graceful techniques of Gravitas, the ultimate art of poise and translocation.
  • The ruthless Clan Vrykolak, ruthless warlords possessed of a terrible hunger for power and glory, and their sanguine mastery of Cruoris, which turns blood itself into a weapon.

Also includes;

  • The Tower, a 13,000 word short story.
  • Two new Background traits unique to their clans.
  • An exploration into how these clans could be fit into the World of Darkness setting.
  • Six sample characters featuring these new clans.

This book has some cool new ideas for kindred that exist outside of the political jockeying of the Camarilla. It offers a storyteller some nice options for an unusual NPC outside of what experienced players may come to expect. Or it can be used to gi [...]

This book adds some new and unusual clans/bloodlines/small long forgotten groups to the main game. each clan feels distinct from the others and also distinct from the main clans in the book. There are no clans that are "Nospheratu, but they do X [...]

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.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
