Vampire, Requiem, Dracul, Ordo

*OP Vampire Ordo Dracul (Vampire: The Requiem)

The Dragon coils in preparation for its strike. It is fearsome and strong, but not so much as it is wise. With each lesson it learns it becomes better prepared and its coils tighten still further. One night - perhaps not far off - the Dragon will learn its final lesson and strike and break the bonds of our dead bodies. It will lunge out of the prison of blood and we will follow its tail to Heaven and the freedom of our souls.
--Aldous Godolphin, Invisible Philosopher of the Subtle Terror

Beyond Undeath

Visionaries among the Damned, members of the Ordo Dracul seek to transcend the curse of vampirism. Devoting themselves to hoary experiments and the philosophies of their leader, Dracula, the Dragons of this covenant seek to discover what lies beyond the Requiem.
