The Path of the Graveborn taps into the necromantic energies surrounding the processes of death and decay. Unlike the Bone Path which focuses merely on creating and controlling zombies, practitioners of the Path of the Graveborn recognize that the vampiric form is that of a walking corpse and they have thus learned to draw from the power of Necromancy to augment the user in a variety of ways and provide a greater state of synthesis with death itself.

Masters of the Path of the Graveborn are scholars of death, entropy, and decay, often living or studying near cemeteries, crypts, and mausoleums. They care little for Noddist theories as to why Caine rejected God’s grace, instead fixating on how the vampiric condition holds power over death. While the Tzimisce clan seeks to perfect their bodies through the mastery of flesh, practitioners of this Path view that as a flawed approach. To a student of the Path of the Graveborn, only by studying the process of death and spark of unlife can perfection be unlocked. They believe that the flesh is merely the vessel for a stronger source of power. Unsurprisingly, more than a few practitioners of this Path also follow the Path of Metamorphosis.
