Road of Ecstasy

• The Roads

Ethics

• Pursuit of pleasure is a spiritual obligation. Those who spurn luxury and hedonism seek to befould the spirit with grossness, and are misguided.

• Vampires are the children of Caine's sin. Thus we should practice, and spread the practice of, sin.

• To resist temptation is a great wrong.

• It is not a crime to kill, as long as the killing is committed beautifully.

• Existence serves no purpose save to entertain.

History

This path was founded by Followers of Set dwelling in Constantinople after the fall of Egypt. Surrounded by the Golden Horn's Byzantine splendor, and associating with the city's debauched Toreador, the path's founders gradually determined their philosophy of decadence. Setites who follow this path pride themselves on the materialism of the modern world, and boast that it is a direct result of their actions and existence.
