The Circle of the Crone
The Circle is a secretive and mystic group of Kindred, holding its own belief about vampiric nature and even its own
Discipline. The so-called Acolytes believe that vampires make up a natural part of the world and can learn, grow, and find
enlightenment instead of wallowing in the guilt-ridden angst of other groups, which focus on penance. Therefore, members of
the Circle of the Crone often find themselves dismissed as political outcasts and heretics of vampiric existence, especially
by the more religious Kindred. The Circle believes that creation is power. Vampires must face their static condition and
overcome it by creating and cultivating whatever they can. Acolytes also cherish testing themselves, believing that only by
overcoming their physical, mental and spiritual limitations can they become something more than creatures of the night. This
belief can also lead to persecution, as their strange rituals of testing can seem barbaric and even unholy to some Kindred.
Benefit: Members of the Circle of the Crone may learn Cruác. This
Discipline is a form of blood sorcery based on pagan rituals and observances.
