Cults Of The Blood Gods For Vampire: The Masquerade Is Coming To Kickstarter – TheGamer

One of the biggest gaps in the lore of the current edition ofVampire: The Masquerademay soon be filled, as a Kickstarter project is being opened forCults of the Blood Gods,which will finally bring the Cappadocians and the Giovanni back into the game as a new clan.

One of the founding clans inVampire: The Masqueradewasthe Cappadocians, who were known as the Clan of Death. The Cappadocians were obsessed with the study of death, to the point where they once had access to the unique Discipline of Mortis, which allowed them to affect the bodies of the living, dead, and undead alike. There were very few Cappadocians left in the modern nights back in the '90s, as they had been wiped out and replaced by one of their own offshoot bloodlines, known as the Giovanni, who used the Discipline of Necromancy to steal secrets from the lips of the dead.

Neither the Cappadocians or the Giovanni can be found in the current edition ofVampire: The Masquerade,but that may soon change, as they are due to return in an upcoming book calledCults of the Blood Gods.Onxy Path Publishing has issued a press release on its website andMatthew Dawkins has released a video on YouTube announcing a Kickstarter forCults of the Blood Gods,which will contain information for clans such as the Followers of Set (now known as The Ministry), the cult of Mithras, the Bihari, and the church of Caine. The book will also finally bring make the Clan of Death playable once more, as a new clan known as the Hecata.

Cult of the Blood Godswill also deal with the various faiths of theVampire: The Masqueradeworld. There are many vampires who follow real-world religions, such as the Banu Haqim having many Christian and Islamic members, butCult of the Blood Godswill also deal with the darker aspects of religion that vampires can cling to in the modern nights.Cult of the Blood Godswill discuss these different faiths, as well as offering a ready-made chronicle set in the city of Munich.

Cults of the Blood Godswon't be the firstVampire: The Masqueradebook that was financed by crowdfunding, asChicago By Nightalsoreceived over one hundred thousand dollars in funding last year. The world ofVampire: The Masqueradeis missing its inbred incestuous necromancer vampires, so we hope thatCult of the Blood Godsis successfully funded and brings the Clan of Death back into unlife.

The Kickstarter for Cults of the Blood Gods will open on December 17, 2019.
