Clan name: Assamite
Nickname: Assassins
Alignment: Independant
Disciplines: Quietus, Obfuscate, Celerity
Weakness: As per the third edition, Assamite's can drink the blood of another kindred. However, this ambrosial vitae is highly addictive to them. Due to this weakness, Assamite's could slip lust after it continuously if comming in contact with it, and could even slip into a frenzy from their fatal addiction.
Discription: Slayers, no clan is more feared by the Kindred. Assamites will travel anywhere in search of their targets, accepting as payment the blood of their employers. Once a "contract" is accepted, they consider themselves honorbound to carry out the exact word of the agreement. In the Middle Ages, so many elders of other clans were killed for their blood, the Camarilla called a BloodHunt against the entire Assamite clan. The Assamites sought peace, and negotiated a treaty. They agreed never again to hunt other Kindred for their blood and the Blood Hunt against them was called off. The Tremere Council cast a ritual upon all the members making it impossible for Assamites to drink the blood of other Kindred. Assamites are usually fanatically loyal to the clan. If anyone tries to cheat an Assamite, or attack under circumstances other than an assassination attempt, the entire clan will intercede. Should an assassin be killed by a target, however, the clan will take no revenge. Its members will not accept another contract for that person's head, and will even honor her.
