	Obtenebration frightens normal mortal creatures and animals. Most Cainite scholars believe this is because Obtenebration is part of God's curse on Caine. By gaining power through calling forth the forces of Hell, or whatever the outer darkness represents, the character pulls himself further from the gaze of God and closer to eternal damnation. Characters with a mystical bent, philosophers and those who consider themselves to be damned souls favor Obtenebration.		Obtenebration frightens normal mortal creatures and animals.

	The source and inhabitants of the ancient darkness are unknown. Many Lasombra claim that the darkness predates God himself and is the home to a more powerful entity kept at bay only by the power of the Sun. In that, they see themselves reflected. Many Lasombra strive to master this ancient being and its minions. Many of those who fail to fully master the shadow find themselves haunted by phantoms in the darkness. Other Lasombra suggest that the darkness comes from a corner of Hell, cut off from the shining firmament of Heaven or from some pre-Christian pagan Underworld. The most common name given to the darkness is Ahriman, the dark half of Zoroastrian dualism - a faith that has had a long association with the Lasombra, most recently as one of the spiritual underpinnings of the Cainite Heresy.
