I would argue that koldunic sorcery is not represented at all, in fact. Maybe Read the Wind (AUS / ANI), but I can't see any card that represet the koldunic spells in VtES. Except thaumaturgy card, but then again most of what Kolduns could do is what Tremere can do, with some additional warghouls.

Not that there is a strong reason to represent it. Kolduns are not very important in modern-day tzimisces, and are hard to represent in VtES card as something special. Theirs works with !Tremere, for Blood Brother creation for example, being the principal workeable idea. (and i does not hought of it before Ankha)

Velya the Flayer has Koldunic Sorcery 8
Kazimir Savostin has Koldunic Sorcery 3
Lady Zara Slatikov is a Koldun
Duality is a Koldun
Laika is a Koldun

None of these vampires have any Thaumaturgy.

I'm not saying this is the "right" (or "wrong") way to represent Koldunic Sorcery. It's just how LSJ and White Wolf chose to represent Koldunic Sorcery.



And for the record, Consignment to Duat, Thrones Crumble, The Jones (Setite Akhu or Sorcery) all appear as a Serpentis cards. Loss (Dur-An-Ki) appears as a Quietus card.

How it is supposed to be known for thoses three ? I can't find them in RPG supplement and I am not aware of VtES - specific background for any vampire.
