The Lancea Sanctum
The Lancea Sanctum (pronounced LAN-kay-uh SANK-toom) (a.k.a the "Sanctified") is the Vampiric equivalent to Catholicism [1]. They believe in redemption and forgiveness through Longinus, whom they believe to be the first Vampire, being considered a vampiric Christ or Saviour. They believe that the Vampiric gift is to be used for the good of man, by only feeding on or killing sinners and scaring the "Kine" in the right direction. Proselyting and Conversion are essential to them, for the Salvation of all Vampires. This Covenant generally dislikes and argues with the Circle of the Crone.
The undead Church offers its predatory flock access to Theban Sorcery; Blood Magic rituals that can produce thematically biblical miracles and curses. With the right lessons a kindred of this covenant can darken the sun, make it rain blood, and even allow Kindred to breed with humans (or even become pregnant themselves).
