God doesn't love me. But He's given me these teeth to spill your blood and these words to speak over your remains.

And when I do that, He's going to make my dreams come true.

God is good.

-- Sister Snow, upstart Bishop of New Orleans

Being a vampire is inherently trading humanity for power, but most Kindred don't do it on purpose. Blood sorcery is about wrapping your arms around blood sacrifice or inhuman philosophy and holding it close against your silent heart. As presented in Vampire: The Requiem, sorcery is a series of rituals passed down from hierophant to acolyte, pastor to parishioner. The blood caked on these rituals is dark and dried, and they are ancient and horrible indeed.

That's what this book is: a gory and grand new exploration of blood sorcery from the powers of the great covenants to the dirty secrets of the street to the figures that lurk in the shadowed history of the Kindred.



This book includes:

• A flexible new system for blood sorcery, allowing you to build and enact your own rituals

• Threnodies, sacrificial charms that build on Disciplines and add a little mojo to any character

• A legion of occult antagonists, from the heartless Sons of Phobos to the enigmatic Empty Liars
