How does this card address a compelling game need?
The Camarilla haven't got new inner circle members since V5 has been launched. Besides the fact that 11 CAP powerfull vampires have been a part of Camarilla core identity in the game since DS expansion, I thought it would be good for the game to give a set of vampires to compete with Lutz and company from G4. Having 4 votes each, the older Inner Circle members kind of "brickwall" new Camarilla voting deck, since it will be difficult to compete in that department with 1 justicar and some princes. Also I tried to make kind of a common theme in this new set of vampires as not to be another OBF PRE 4 votes madness as it was with the old G4 vampires. You'll see this new set is more focused in enabling combat strategies than pure voting as it was with G4 inner circles. You'll also notice that Brujah and Gangrel have been replaced in the Inner Circle with the Lasombra and Banu-Haqim as it fits the newer storyline.

Replied by Pedro on topic [Submission] New Inner Circle
Always happy to see new ideas, but I believe there are lore reasons we are not seeing any inner circles making a return sadly. Most of these ideas are good but grossly overpowered I think.
