Districts

The modern city of Berlin has twenty districts, twelve in the west and eight in the eastern section of the city. In the mortal world, there districts are just smaller subsections of the greater metropolitan Berlin; to the Kindred way of thinking, things are a bit different, as each of these districts are lesser duchies ruled by an undead despot who owes his or her allegiance to the respective prince of east or west. The powerful undead who call these districts home are often jokingly refered to as burgomeisters; though over the last few decades the term has begun to lose its humorous conotation and has started to take on real authority as the struggle between the two princes of the city continues to erode the inherent authority of the princedom. As with every other facet of Berlin, the city's districts are divided into eastern and western, as seen below. Though the Burgomeisters are theoretically bound by the authority of their respective liege, the reality of the situation can often be something different alltogether; visitors to Berlin are advised to treat the Burgomeisters with respect, for in the absense of centralized power - accidents happen.

Vampires of the City

Die Gesetze der Nacht: The Traditions


The First Tradition: The Masquerade
Thou shall not reveal thy nature to those not of the Blood. Doing so shall renounce thy claims of Blood.

The Second Tradition: The Domain
Thy domain is thine own concern. All others owe thee respect while in it. None may challenge thy word while in thy domain.

The Third Tradition: The Progeny
Thou shall sire another only with the permission of thine elder. If thou createst another without thine elder's leave, both thee and thy progeny shall be slain.

The Fourth Tradition: The Accounting
Those thou create are thine own childer. Until thy progeny shall be released, thou shall command them in all things. Their sins are thine to endure.

The Fifth Tradition: Hospitality
Honor one another's domain. When thou comest to a foreign city, thou shall present thyself to the one who ruleth there. Without the word of acceptance, thou art nothing.

The Sixth Tradition: Destruction
Thou art forbidden to destroy another of thy kind. The right of destruction belongeth only to thine elder. Only the eldest among thee shall call the blood hunt.
