Vampire: The Masquerade 5E

Ah... So it's your usual Sabbat book.

Some decent lore bits surrounded by mechanics and rules that are either pointless or ridiculously overpowered (with power being directly proportional to how anal-retentive the ST is) and enough juvenile edge to behead an Antediluvian with.

Edit: What a page topper.

I wonder if Path of Lilith being a minor Path in the modern Sabbat is supposed to mean anything, like reflecting the real world now as compared to the 90s.

I think it's just a sign that a bunch of Caine-worshiping nutbars would never be too fond of a group of people who think Caine was their version of the Devil.

Here's my review of the book: https://booknest.eu/reviews/charles/2322-sabbattheblackhand

Yo, Charles, does the Sabbat book have rules to play as Clan Tzimisce, by chance? They're probably in my top three clans behind Toreador and my #1, Malkavian.

Clan Tzimisce rules were provided in the V5 Companion, for free on the WW website.

Also Ravnos and Salubri.

It's basically the part that Modiphius finished for the Players Guide.

Ah, did not know that, thanks for the info.

A doubt, does anyone know what "The Beckoning" is?

Its the draw of Elders to the Middle East or other locations by a mysterious force (The Antediluvians).

Is this mysterious force explained somewhere, or the devs just left it vague for the players figure out what it is?

Jason Carl has stated it's the Antediluvians but they'll never do more than strongly hint.

I have a character named Elise Rose who has this faceclaim. She's a Malkavian who fits the Vampire Lolita Archetype to a T.
