What is Carpathian?

A Carpathian is those of the vampiric community who have the desire and drive to rise up above the human community with power, grace and dignity. We are rulers of our own destiny, yet we work behind the scenes to mold and create our own reality and world.
Carpathians are connoisseurs of the finer things in life, enjoying our existence to the fullest. We adhere to the laws of mankind, while controlling them in the shadows.
Our very existence depends on secrecy, we do not shout from the rooftops of our power. For power lies within discretion.
Our physical appearance is always of someone in total control of our surroundings. Our clothing is always neat and clean, never showing the tatters of poverty.
