Clan Ventrue
Regal, commanding and aristocratic, the Ventrue are the harsh lords of the Danse Macabre. The Ventrue most often come
from the closest the modern world comes to feudal nobility: the ranks of professionals, the cream of high society, the scions
of old money or political dynasties. As new professions and new forms of power arise, the Ventrue bring them into the clan.
Through whatever means necessary, the Ventrue rise to the top of the undead heap.
Nickname: Lords
Clan Disciplines: The Ventrue master Dominate, the Discipline of mental subjugation. Their strength is not
diminished on beasts, as they exert themselves with the power of Animalism over lesser creatures. And as Lords must be fit
enough to resist challengers, their undead bodies are gifted with Resilience.
Weakness: Power corrupts, and among the Ventrue, even the thirst for power can corrode an ambitious Kindred’s moral
bearings. Over time, a Ventrue’s mind becomes fragile. Therefore, Ventrue characters are more prone to gaining derangements
when they suffer a loss of Humanity.
Ventrue in the Invictus are synonomous with power and postion within the world
of the undead. Ventrue comprise the bulk of this Covenant and know how to wield it's power with authority and effeciency.
Sometimes warloards but more often cunning polititians and businessmen, they excell at convincing others to follow their lead.
Either threw manipulation, bribery or simple application of Dominate.
Ventrue in the Circle of the Crone are unusual but those who practice the arts of
the Crone are known for their command over beasts, magic and thier covens. The Crone's internal structure is second only to
the Invictus and where thier is a strong hierarchy thier is a member of Clan Ventrue.
