Vampire The Masquerade Lore: Who are Clan Lasombra? 

Ah, I knew a most fascinating Lasombra long ago. He was a scholar, a mystic, and a sorcerer delving deep into the primordial darkness he commanded. His ambition was apparent to anyone who met him, and his highest dream was commiting the Diablerie on his sire. Sadly, he never got to achieve his goal, as he was lost to the darkness he strived to master. He stepped into the deepest shadows, and never emerged. Perhaps I shall see him again, some night, though I doubt it. Some dark secrets devour those who seek them, and the Lasombra have always prized ambition over wisdom.

I love this perspective of an experienced Kindred talking about what they know

Just love the Lasombra, they are my favorite clan.

I really enjoy these videos. I accidentally became obsessed with the WOD vampire lore by watching the white wolf documentary….. I’ve never played vampire the masquerade, but the lore is so much fun!

Your voice is otherworldly! I am smitten!

Also, they like the sea. Like they’re really good sailors

Reminds me of the movie powers Dracula showed, also his breaking Renfield before sending him out into the world.

I really enjoy your vampire videos, keep up the great work 👍

You have a great voice for story relling

I’m making a homebrew offshoot for me and my friends I’m calling The Frontier Chronicles and I’m thinking one of the PC’s will be a Lasombra and his sire is a mysterious kindred simply known as Der Großmann.

I love your videos the story telling and narration is great put out nore videos

Looking forward to the Hecata vid.

I think the lasombra might objectively be the most powerful clan. They currently control the largest religion in the world, and control a large part of the second largest. They have obtenebration, which of all the disciplins is by far the strongest, especially against other kindred, who are specifically relegated to the shadows. And many lasombra posses the baali discipline of daimonion. No other clan but the baali can summon and control literally demons, or summon hellfire from nothing. If the lasombra wanted to kill every other kindred, the omly clans theyd have trouble with would be the tremere, banu hakim, Giovanni, and maybe the toreador and brujah. Celerity, blood sorcery, and oblivion are the only real counters to oblivion (which bypasses fortitude), and even then a blood sorcerer cant do much if their arms are bound or whithered away. a toreador cant run from the arms of the abyss if their shadow refuses to move with them. Obfuscate cant hide you from specters, fortitude cant shield your shadow from being throttled to death, and potence and protean wont protect you from being sucked into your own shadow and pulled into the labrynth. Theres a reason other kindred look at users of oblivion with suspicion and fear, and its because final death is a better fate than whatever the shades in the abyss will do to you for the rest of eternity. The lasombra abyss mystics literally have the only disciplime power in all of vtm that causes instant unavoidable death to anyone regardless of range or cover.

0/ heyo, thanx for using my Cain priest in a vid

Lasombra are the clan I find most captivating.

I would say have a good night)

good one

This may be a naive question from a fledgling, but why did the Camarilla make such a generous offer to Clan Lasombra? Was it an offer for only the Lasombra or was it an offer to the entire Sabat and only the Lasombra accepted this offer in large numbers?

My true clan. Long live Clan La Sombra. Long live The Dark.
