Lasombra Only

Montano is one of the only remaining Lasombra to have walked side by side with the clan's founder. It is said that he is to thank for the clan's access to the Abyss, and some even whisper that Christianity itself was allowed to rise in the world because of his wishes. Ever a man of honor, he refused to leave the Camarilla, and for centuries he was branded a traitor because of it. As one of his descendants, you know what true loyalty means. The clan looks to you and your ancestor, more now than ever, as they forge ahead in the dark waters of the Camarilla.

• Siblings in Darkness: Montano's honor runs throughout his lineage as an expected code of behavior, and you reap the benefits of this reputation within Clan Lasombra. Your clanmates have provided you aid and respect in the form of four dots selected from the Allies, Contacts, or Resources Backgrounds or their associated Advantages.

•• Purity of Remorse: No one mourns his sins like Montano, who murdered his family and friends as a mortal man to save his village from his Sire. He cannot consciously remember this, but he agonizes just the same. You are inspired by his commitment to Humanity and have learned from it. Once a night, if you fail a Remorse test, you can attempt it again. If you win (not tie) this second test, you remain at your current Humanity and remove all Stains.

••• Abyssal Appearance: You have studied the powers and Ceremonies of Oblivion with Montano himself. With his potent Blood, his mastery will always eclipse yours. You have, however, managed to learn a few tricks that only his tutelage can explain. Once per game session, prior to the beginning of the game, you may select any one of your Oblivion powers or Ceremonies and replace it with another power or Ceremony that you would be eligible to purchase at that level. At the end of the game session, this choice is reversed.
