The Commandments of the Sabbat
The First Commandment: The Legacy
Thy blood is that of Caine, cursed by God and blessed by
Lilith. To seek to change your state or to return to that
of your mortal life is a sin against thy Father and
Mother, and against thy God.
The Second Commandment: Honor
Never forget your Sire's Sire, Caine the Wanderer.
Honor always your Sire. Honor another's Progeny
The Third Commandment: Progeny
Thou shalt only sire another with the permission of thy
elder. If thou createst another without thine elder's
leave, both thou and thy progeny shall be slain. Thou
shalt not Embrace Love. Thou shalt not feed of the
Moon-Beasts, the Wild Ones, the diseased, the insane,
or the drunken.
The Fourth Commandment: Accounting
Those thou create are thine own childer. Until thy
progeny shall be released, thou shalt command them in
all things. Their sins are thine to endure. Thou shalt
teach your Progeny the ways of the Kindred.
The Fifth Commandment: Domain
Thy domain is thine own concern. All others owe thee
respect while in it. None may challenge thy word while
in thy domain. When thou comest to the fief of another,
thou shalt present thyself to the one who ruleth there.
Thou shalt honor each other's House. Thou shalt honor
each other's Domain.
The Sixth Commandment: Hospitality
To your Brothers and Sisters, always give hospitality. To
your Sire's Brothers and Sisters, always give the best
part of your house, to your Progeny's Brothers and
Sisters give a roof from the Sun and the blood of a
sheep, no more.
The Seventh Commandment: The Guarding of Secrets
Thou shalt accept Final Death over the revelation of the
sect's mysteries, secrets, and activities to any outside of
the sect.
