Ishtarri

Search

Although a significant number of vampires reside on the continent of Africa, few choose to associate with the vampires of Europe or the New World. The Ishtarri are an exception. Some few years ago, they opened their gates to their cousins in the Toreador clan and were, in return, welcomed into the fold. According to the Ishtarri, the Toreador Antediluvian was once worshipped as the Babylonian goddess Ishtar, and their lineage began as a cult dedicated to her adoration. The Ishtarri are consummate dancers, acrobats, and spies, trained in a religion dedicated to immaculate form and movement. Like the goddess Ishtar, they venerate both love and war, and spend their existence perfecting the physical accomplishments of sexuality and combat.

Weakness

Instead of the standard Toreador weakness, Ishtarri suffer a -2 penalty to resist emotion-controlling powers, such as Presence.
