Generation

Backgrounds

Generation measures the number of vampires in a direct line between the character and Caine, the First Vampire. Most new vampires in the Dark Medieval era are of the 12th generation, and having a lower generation than that means that an elder (or a successful diablerist) chose the character as a childe for reasons of her or its own. See p. 164 for the details on what benefits generation provides.

In the Modern Era, the base generation is 13th. Vampires may have a weaker generation by taking the 13th Generation (Dark Ages) or 14th Generation (modern era) flaw.
