Many humans fears are realized in the world of darkness. Among them are the vampires, who call themselves the Kindred because they are a breed set apart from man. But these vampires are not just mad beasts or solitary hunters. Completely hidden from human eyes by a plan the Kindred call the Masquerade is an entire society of vapires. The disputes and alliances that have formed this society have also built powerful nations and drug great men to their graves.
No place in the world of vampires is quite like San Francisco. It is a melting pot set outside the always arcane and dangerous dynamics of Kindred politics.

Herein are the beginnings and players for some of those unspeakable schemes.
