− | In the sourcebook on [[VII]], there are three versions of VII presented, each intended to be exclusive from the others with a complex history that has lead the group to its present state. In a given chronicle, only ''one'' VII is expected to exist, but there may be a number of false leads and complicated inconsistencies so that uncovering the truth could take the better part of a Requiem chronicle. | + | In the sourcebook on [[:Cateogry:VII|VII]], there are three versions of VII presented, each intended to be exclusive from the others with a complex history that has lead the group to its present state.

In '''the Princes of the Fallen City''', vampires of the Seven are presented as descedents from the nobility of the ancient city of Gommorah. A strange vampire came to the city's court and enthralled the gluttonous king before leading him and his people into ruin. When the city was falling apart, the princes made a deal witha demon called [[Shaddad]] which lead to a blood curse but also their continuation. This created the "quasi-clan" of [[Akhud]] which carries the dark influence of Shaddad to this day and drives the princes' vampiric descendents to seek revenge and to topple [[Kindred]] society, recreating it with them once more in a place of power. Other vampries from non-VII [[Clan|clans]] can join this movement, sometimes severing ties with their old covenant and sometimes serving as sleeper agents. | In '''the Princes of the Fallen City''', vampires of the Seven are presented as descedents from the nobility of the ancient city of Gommorah.

In '''the Sleepers''', vampires of VII are not the victims of an ancient betrayal, but of a more recent experiment which has gone on for the last century. In an effort to destroy the sin inherent in Kindred existence, a clandestine organization with little leadership but great ambition has sought to purge the selfish impulses of the individual from vampires. Their soldiers can operate and move through Kidnred society fluidly but are gripped by a strong mental programming that drives them to carry out a secret mission, even if they themselves don't realize it. | In '''the Sleepers''', vampires of VII are not the victims of an ancient betrayal, but of a more recent experiment which has gone on for the last century.
