Achilles Heel 

 

 

“You are not supposed to be here. We will show you the way out; one piece at a time, if needs be.”

Conceived and created in crumbling Old World castles and chantries by the Tremere antitribu and a few twisted Tzimisce sorcerers, the Blood Brothers are an artificially engineered bloodline of shock troops and servitors. The Blood Brothers are the dubiously successful result of extensive experiments in blood bonding, intended to create a cell of servants that thought and acted as one.

To some degree, the Blood Brothers are a hive mind, sharing the same conscious thoughts and experiencing their surroundings vicariously through other members of their individual “chapters”, known as circles. This link allows them to work effectively apart from each other – the bloodline excels at coordinated combat missions and espionage, provided no one realizes what they are (which, due to their rarity and the difficulty of their creation, is unlikely). They practice an unusual, disturbing Discipline that allows them to “loan” their limbs to one another, heal their compatriots and even capitalize on their shared minds.
