Assamites

In Cainite circles, many remain unaware of the true nature and intentions of the Assamites. To most, they appear as a new clan emerging from the East, bold in their stance amidst the nightly struggles of our kind. Only the elders and learned scholars among Cainites can recall a time when the Assamites were active members of our society, before they withdrew into their studies within Alamut, their sanctuary nestled in the Anatolian mountains.

Among European vampires, rare are those who interact with anyone beyond the Assamite envoys, the viziers, and a handful of sorcerers. The clan presents a united front, possessing an uncanny ability to communicate across vast distances and maintain ties with their brethren in Alamut.

Though many Assamites hail from the lands now known as Persia, birthplace of their founder, their members come from across the Middle East. In recent times, a growing number of younger Assamites have embraced Islamic beliefs. Yet, their elders often regard this with disdain, seeing mortal religion as a distraction from their true purpose.

However, to the wider Cainite society, it is the younger Assamites they mostly encounter, and the name Assamite has become synonymous with Muslim, earning them the epithet Saracens. Yet, many elder Assamites are content to let others believe what they will, so long as it serves their own ends.

The Assamites themselves shun the label of Saracens, preferring instead to be known as the Children of Haqim, in honor of their progenitor. Haqim laid down a strict code for his descendants to follow. Cainites are perilous creatures who meddle too freely in mortal affairs. The Children of Haqim are tasked with honoring their elders, shielding mortals from the excesses of other Cainites, and meting out judgment (and punishment) upon their kindred.

Furthermore, the Children of Haqim are entrusted with reclaiming the blood of profligate Cainites, those who abuse mortals and ought not possess such gifts. This often leads the clan to engage in diablerie as a matter of principle, though few adhere strictly to this doctrine.

The clan of the Children of Haqim operates as a cohesive unit, divided into three distinct sects that collaborate closely in pursuit of their shared goal of judgment. The sorcerers serve as the clan's backbone, facilitating communication among members and providing essential support from Alamut, the clan's stronghold. Warriors, on the other hand, wield the authority to pass judgment upon vampires and deliver punishment when deemed necessary. Meanwhile, the viziers assume the role of the clan's public representatives, gathering intelligence on political matters and current events to keep their brethren informed. Most Assamites residing within Cainite-controlled territories function as viziers, supported by a handful of sorcerers.

Dubbed as the Children of Haqim or Saracens, the appearance of Assamites is predominantly Middle Eastern, although some neonates have been embraced as far west as the Iberian Peninsula. Regardless of origin, all Assamites are obliged to spend time in Alamut following their embrace, adopting traditional Middle Eastern attire. Dress codes within the three sects vary based on functionality; sorcerers adhere strictly to traditional attire, warriors opt for comfort during extended travels, and viziers often adopt the garb of their current city of residence.

When selecting a haven, Assamites prioritize security over luxury, favoring easily defended dwellings secluded from mortal eyes, particularly in European domains. Many opt for residences located on the outskirts of cities, enabling them to monitor the activities of both vampires and mortals. However, practicality may sometimes yield to necessity; certain Assamite viziers may adorn their dwellings impressively to curry favor with mortal and Cainite courts when hosting visitors.

In terms of character creation, Assamite viziers typically possess a blend of Social and Mental Attributes and Abilities, reflecting their roles as scholars and diplomats. Most Children of Haqim boast at least one dot in Mentor, often their sire, and some may possess dots in Generation acquired through the practice of diablerie upon those deemed unworthy. The majority adhere to the Road of Heaven or Humanity, with a select few following the Road of Kings. However, older warriors and traditionalists often align with the Road of Blood.

Clan Assamite possesses a distinctive set of Disciplines, including Auspex, Presence, and Quietus (Hematus). However, their rigorous nature is both a strength and a weakness. Assamite viziers are known for their unwavering dedication, yet each harbors an obsession with their highest intellectual or creative Ability, which manifests as a derangement. This obsession is visible through their glowing aura, offering clues to their true nature and the object of their fixation, discernible to users of Auspex. Additionally, as Assamites age, their skin gradually darkens to a matte onyx, a slow but unmistakable transformation.

Organization within Clan Assamite is intricate, owing to the adeptness of their sorcerers. The clan defers to the Eldest, typically the eldest of Haqim's progeny not in torpor. Each of the three sects within the clan has its own internal leader, collectively overseeing the night-to-night operations. The viziers perceive themselves as judges, tasked with evaluating Cainites and identifying those deemed unworthy of Caine's blood. Sorcerers dedicate themselves to research aimed at enhancing interactions with mortals and maintaining communication among the sects. Meanwhile, warriors act as enforcers, executing judgments and leading nomadic lives directed by their brethren.

Regarding stereotypes of other clans, Assamites hold varying views. They view Tremere with caution, wary of their meddling in unknown realms. Brujah are seen as passionate but lacking in true philosophical depth. Cappadocians are generally tolerated as long as their studies into death remain separate from mortal affairs. Gangrel are respected for their honor, with few deemed unworthy. However, Followers of Set are considered heretics, condemned for their debauchery and perceived evil.
