Revenants
Revenant
familes were bred over many generations to serve the sabbat. They are
not quite human, somewhere between human and vampire, they exist outside
of society's norms. Some worship vampires as Gods, some aspire to acheive
that state themselves.
Revenants are divided into families, and like Vampire clans, each family
has particular roles to play, specific disciplines and weaknesses. These
humans were bred over many generations, and genetically they are quite
different from the average human. The aging process is slowed (but not
halted as in traditional ghouls). A hundred year old revenant may appear
to be in their twenties. Also many of the family's philosophies are indoctrinated
into them from an early age, some revenant families even follow Paths
of Enlightenment (or Roads). The personality of the average revenant is
often freakish and alien by society's standards, and inbreeding is not
uncommon.
Revenants produce their own blood pools at the rate of
1 pt per day.
They cannot use this blood to form bonds, created ghouls, or make vampires.
