These lands are mine, childer; mine for as far as your Cainite eyes can see. Who defended them when the barbarian hordes clamored to the north? Who fought off the howling infidels to the east? Who put down countless insurrections, both of Cainite and kine contrivance? It was I, my sons and daughters. I, who gave myself wholly unto my lands and their people; for their people are my people. My service is both a privilege and a responsibility, childer - as I am a master of the state. Libellus Sanguinis I: Masters of the State includes: Vital information on the three clans of nobility - the Lasombra, Tzimisce and Ventrue; Expanded Discipline powers, new Abilities and details on clan activities in Dark Medieval Europe and beyond; Hints and secrets of the clans lost to the passage of time between the Dark Medieval world and the modern World of Darkness.
