| + | As with all the [[Antediluvian]]s, the Nosferatu Antediluvian (referred to as [[Absimiliard]] from now on) was embraced in the shadow of [[Enoch]]. Powerful and vain, Absimiliard was a hunter of great skill and beauty who thought he was powerful enough to track and kill Zillah, the daughter of Caine. Instead, Zillah fought off Absimiliard easily, and instead of killing him for the affront, Embraced him for his strength and bravery. As a reminder of her strength and his arrogance, Zillah left a tiny scar on Absimiliad's face that inflamed his vanity. His wounded pride, coupled with his ego, led him to resent, then hate his sire. Eventually he began Embracing childer in an affort to depose and destroy Zillah - much like Zillah was planning to depose and destroy her two brothers-in-blood. | ||
| + | |||
| + | As with his brethren, Absimiliard had sired a small clique of [[childer]] by the time of the [[Second City]]. His childer, hunters all, remained loyal to him except for one woman who fled further than he could chase. When [[Caine]] returned in judgment, he cursed Nosferatu with hideousness, a curse passed to all his descendants, including the hidden maid. Since that time, Absimiliard's eldest descendants, the [[Nictuku]], have chased her. Absimiliard hopes to exterminate all of her childer, the clan Nosferatu, in atonement for his crimes before Caine or in bitter vengeance. The result is the same either way. | ||
| + | |||
| + | There is a persistent myth surrounding the origin of the Clan which says that Absimiliard and [[Toreador Antediluvian|Arikel]] were lovers and shared a blood bond. This is not a story of which the Nosferatu are particular proud, but it is passed around nonetheless. When Absimiliard was cursed by Caine with ugliness, Arikel professed not to care, but Absimiliard was too enraged to listen to the counsel of his lover. He turned his back on human and vampire society alike, and retreated from the world by hiding in deep caves. This story helps to explain the strong antipathy between the Nosferatu and the Toreador, especially the Toreador ''posuers'', but for some reason the Nosferatu don't feel like explaining it to them. <br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | == The Meek Shall Inherit the Sewers - Dark Ages == | ||
| + | In the middle age, Nosferatu were one of the [[Low Clans]], and notable in particular for their embrace of Christianity and redemption. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The Nosferatu did effectively split during the formation of the [[Sabbat]], however Nosferatu [[antitribu]] are largely identical to their Camarilla kin. Nosferatu tend to place a higher emphasis on clan unity and mutual survival, and are consequently fairly cordial with each other even though technically enemies. <br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Goblin Men - the Victorian Age == | ||
| + | The Nosferatu were very (some would say suspiciously so) quiet during the Victorian Era. In a time when physical beauty was supposed to reflect spiritual beauty, the Nosferatu experienced one of the greatest periods of exile in their long and lonely history. Where the [[Toreador]] were ascendant, the Nosferatu were relegated to the slums and ghettos of Europe. More than one Prince of [[London]] banned them from entering Elysium. | ||
| + | |||
| + | So, instead of parading around the brightly-lit mansions of the wealthy and noble, the Nosferatu scuttled around the back alleys of London, taking over derelict buildings and, yes, the sewers. The banks of the Thames were downright infested with Nosferatu, for the river was a convenient way to cross the city without being seen. The Nosferatu also lived in what was termed "the Thieves' Citadel", which was the name given to high-crime areas of London. These zones tended to be self-contained both culturally and architecturally - the Nosferatu ensured that they controlled how and when new construction went on in these zones for their own protection and that of their [[herd]]. <br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Sewer Rats - the Final Nights == | ||
| + | Fortunately, the Nosferatu have done very well for themselves within the past century or so. The First World War solidified the Nosferatu role as information gatherers and traders of secrets. The Second World War saw the Clan fleeing Europe en masse, as many of their herds and warrens were captured or destroyed by the Nazi regime. Many didn't make it out. More didn't have anywhere to go, as the European princes cited "overpopulation" and "breaches of the Masquerade" as excuses to keep them out of their cities. Higher-generation Nosferatu eventually reached the United States and made themselves indispensable to the war effort. Older ones called in favors and debts, taking what they were owed in the form of cash, bolt holes, and transportation away from the front lines. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In the Final Nights, the Nosferatu feel their Antediluvian metaphorically breathing down the back of their necks. Technologically savvy, the Sewer Rats adopt every technique they can to protect themselves. Most notably, the Nosferatu develop an information sharing network - [[SchreckNet]], a parallel internet that the Nosferatu use to enhance their traditional information gathering and reporting skills. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The most terrifying and unique event in the early 1990s was the rise of the [[Shadow Curtain]] in Russia, a mystical barrier that separated the vampires of the former Soviet Union from the rest of the world. The Shadow Curtain eventually was revealed as the product of [[Baba Yaga]], a fourth generation Nosferatu of almost incalculable power. Most frightening of all was not the witch, however, but her demise. In the late 1990's, Baba Yaga was destroyed, most likely by a [[Nictuku]], but other sources claim it was Lupines. Either way, there's something out there powerful enough and savage enough to kill off a Nosferatu Methuselah... and leave no trace. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The second blow to weaken the Nosferatu was a political one: in 1998, their Justicar, [[Petrodon]], was destroyed by persons unknown. Even in a clan famous for discovering secrets, the Nosferatu had no idea who killed the Justicar, or even exactly when he died. [[Calebros]], before becoming Prince of New York, spent a great deal of time and energy tracking down those responsible, along with the potent aid of [[Cock Robin]], the new Nosferatu Justicar. | ||

Mirror, Mirror... - the Early History
As with all the Antediluvians, the Nosferatu Antediluvian (referred to as Absimiliard from now on) was embraced in the shadow of Enoch. Powerful and vain, Absimiliard was a hunter of great skill and beauty who thought he was powerful enough to track and kill Zillah, the daughter of Caine. Instead, Zillah fought off Absimiliard easily, and instead of killing him for the affront, Embraced him for his strength and bravery. As a reminder of her strength and his arrogance, Zillah left a tiny scar on Absimiliad's face that inflamed his vanity. His wounded pride, coupled with his ego, led him to resent, then hate his sire. Eventually he began Embracing childer in an affort to depose and destroy Zillah - much like Zillah was planning to depose and destroy her two brothers-in-blood.
As with his brethren, Absimiliard had sired a small clique of childer by the time of the Second City. His childer, hunters all, remained loyal to him except for one woman who fled further than he could chase. When Caine returned in judgment, he cursed Nosferatu with hideousness, a curse passed to all his descendants, including the hidden maid. Since that time, Absimiliard's eldest descendants, the Nictuku, have chased her. Absimiliard hopes to exterminate all of her childer, the clan Nosferatu, in atonement for his crimes before Caine or in bitter vengeance. The result is the same either way.
There is a persistent myth surrounding the origin of the Clan which says that Absimiliard and Arikel were lovers and shared a blood bond. This is not a story of which the Nosferatu are particular proud, but it is passed around nonetheless. When Absimiliard was cursed by Caine with ugliness, Arikel professed not to care, but Absimiliard was too enraged to listen to the counsel of his lover. He turned his back on human and vampire society alike, and retreated from the world by hiding in deep caves. This story helps to explain the strong antipathy between the Nosferatu and the Toreador, especially the Toreador posuers, but for some reason the Nosferatu don't feel like explaining it to them.
The Meek Shall Inherit the Sewers - Dark Ages
In the middle age, Nosferatu were one of the Low Clans, and notable in particular for their embrace of Christianity and redemption.
The Nosferatu did effectively split during the formation of the Sabbat, however Nosferatu antitribu are largely identical to their Camarilla kin. Nosferatu tend to place a higher emphasis on clan unity and mutual survival, and are consequently fairly cordial with each other even though technically enemies.
Goblin Men - the Victorian Age
The Nosferatu were very (some would say suspiciously so) quiet during the Victorian Era. In a time when physical beauty was supposed to reflect spiritual beauty, the Nosferatu experienced one of the greatest periods of exile in their long and lonely history. Where the Toreador were ascendant, the Nosferatu were relegated to the slums and ghettos of Europe. More than one Prince of London banned them from entering Elysium.
So, instead of parading around the brightly-lit mansions of the wealthy and noble, the Nosferatu scuttled around the back alleys of London, taking over derelict buildings and, yes, the sewers. The banks of the Thames were downright infested with Nosferatu, for the river was a convenient way to cross the city without being seen. The Nosferatu also lived in what was termed "the Thieves' Citadel", which was the name given to high-crime areas of London. These zones tended to be self-contained both culturally and architecturally - the Nosferatu ensured that they controlled how and when new construction went on in these zones for their own protection and that of their herd.
Sewer Rats - the Final Nights
Fortunately, the Nosferatu have done very well for themselves within the past century or so. The First World War solidified the Nosferatu role as information gatherers and traders of secrets. The Second World War saw the Clan fleeing Europe en masse, as many of their herds and warrens were captured or destroyed by the Nazi regime. Many didn't make it out. More didn't have anywhere to go, as the European princes cited "overpopulation" and "breaches of the Masquerade" as excuses to keep them out of their cities. Higher-generation Nosferatu eventually reached the United States and made themselves indispensable to the war effort. Older ones called in favors and debts, taking what they were owed in the form of cash, bolt holes, and transportation away from the front lines.
In the Final Nights, the Nosferatu feel their Antediluvian metaphorically breathing down the back of their necks. Technologically savvy, the Sewer Rats adopt every technique they can to protect themselves. Most notably, the Nosferatu develop an information sharing network - SchreckNet, a parallel internet that the Nosferatu use to enhance their traditional information gathering and reporting skills.
The most terrifying and unique event in the early 1990s was the rise of the Shadow Curtain in Russia, a mystical barrier that separated the vampires of the former Soviet Union from the rest of the world. The Shadow Curtain eventually was revealed as the product of Baba Yaga, a fourth generation Nosferatu of almost incalculable power. Most frightening of all was not the witch, however, but her demise. In the late 1990's, Baba Yaga was destroyed, most likely by a Nictuku, but other sources claim it was Lupines. Either way, there's something out there powerful enough and savage enough to kill off a Nosferatu Methuselah... and leave no trace.
The second blow to weaken the Nosferatu was a political one: in 1998, their Justicar, Petrodon, was destroyed by persons unknown. Even in a clan famous for discovering secrets, the Nosferatu had no idea who killed the Justicar, or even exactly when he died. Calebros, before becoming Prince of New York, spent a great deal of time and energy tracking down those responsible, along with the potent aid of Cock Robin, the new Nosferatu Justicar.
