Caines Childer are called "the damned", and no vampire embodies this more than do the wretches of clan Nosferatu. While other vampires still look human and are able to travel/live in mortal society, Nosferatu are twisted and deformed by the curse of vampirism. To put it bluntly, the Embrace transforms them into hideous monsters. Unable to walk among humans, Nosferatu must dwell in subterranean sewers and catacombs. Other vampires revile Nosferatu, considering them disgusting and interacting with them only when they must.

Because of this stigma, however, Nosferatu are survivors par excellence. Few creatures, mortal or vampire,the cities back allies and corners like the Nosferatu do. Additionally, Nosferatu have refined the crafts of sneaking and eavesdropping into fine arts; if anyone or anything has the latest dirt on mortal or vampiric society, it is the Nosferatu. Finally, millennia of shared deformity and abuse have fostered strong bonds among the Nosferatu. They forgo the squabbling and feuds ubiquitous to the other clans, preferring to work in unison. You mess with one, you mess with them all - and that can get messy indeed............

Aptitude: +1 with stealth. Nosferatu are natural sneaks, and may add one die to all situations involving hiding, moving silently, or other stealth-related feats.

Advantage: Horrid visage. Nosferatu are hideous creatures, but this can stand them in good stead. When first confronting opponents or prey, the Nosferatu may roll six dice (difficulty of opponents Psychic +2). If the roll succeeds, the opponent is so stunned with terror or disgust that they make take no action for one turn.

Weakness: Loathsome. A Nosferatu's social trait is considered to be zero-though when intimidating others, he may substitute his physical trait for a social trait.

Clan Disciplines: Animalism, Obfuscate, Potence.
