The Brujah

The Brujah can trace their roots back to ancient Babylon, and the clay tablet libraries of the first scholars. They were lovers and guardians of knowledge, and the founder of their line was the inventor of written language. However, in their quest for freedom, they slew their founder and were banished from the First City. Today the Brujah are scorned as riffraff who have lost their heritage and are withour pride. For over a millennium they have been the rebels among the Kindred, forever questioning and testing the Traditions. 

The clan is very poorly organized; its members meet only irregularly, and share little in common besides their love of rebellion. They are among the only supporters of the anarchs, and aiding them is one of the only matters upon which they ever agree. They are often underestimated, as much by themselves as anyone. 

The Brujah clan is almost completely composed of rebels of one kind or another, forever searching for the ultimate expression of their individuality. The Brujah are punks, skinheads, bikers, death-rockers, freaks, socialists and anarchists. They tend to be stubborn, highly aggressive, ruthless, sensitive to slights, and extremely vengeful. They are the most uncontrollable of all the Kindred. 

These malcontents tend to be fanatical in their dispartate beliefs - the only thing that unites them is their desire to overthrow the social system, be it vampiric or mortal, and replace it with one of their own making ( or with nothing at all ). Many are bullheaded crusaders of the worst sort, devoted to their cause until they become blind to any other shades of the truth. 

Though the Brujah are incredibly fractious, they aid each other in times of need, regardless of past disputes and antagonisms. If the Brujah call is made, others will respond, but the gathered host will be enraged if they think the call was unwaranted. 

This clan is poorly organized and only occasionally holds informal meetings. Indeed, Brujah rely on their chaotic behavior to gain the results they desire. Other Kindred allow them their eccentricities; indeed, certain activities that would get other Kindred extinguished earn them only the remark, "Oh, a Brujah." Insolent outbursts and fevered ravings are to be expected from the Brujah. The other Kindred have simply learned to provide the Brujah an amount of leeway which would be given to no other vampire.
