Summary

From the White Wolf Catalog:
The Secrets of a World of Darkness
The Kindred hide among the men, eking out their bloodthirsty unlives under a veil of deception, yet certain mysteries remain obscured from even the cleverest vampire's sight. Who else stalks the Final Nights? What of their powers? And what terrible secrets do they carry?
There Are More of Us Than We Know
Vampire Storytellers Companion collects new rules, abilities, and bloodlines to aid Storytellers in their task of world-building. This book presents new information on the less numerous kindred of the World of Darkness as well as an expanded weapons list and frightening Disciplines only rumored by the kindred of the Camarilla and Sabbat alike.

  • Details on lesser bloodlines - The Salubri, Samedi and the Daughters of Cacophany
  • New weapons, disciplines and abilities with which players can arm themselves against the night
