| |
| − | The Code of Milan
| |
| − |
| |
| − | By the solemn word of Recent Gorchist, this is the one true Code of Milan, revised from the original manuscript this
| |
| − | night, December 21, 1933. Out of the ashes of our great war may this peace reign everlasting.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | An oath of allegiance has been sworn by the regent and the consistory in the presence of all faction leaders and 50
| |
| − | other witnesses to faithfully follow all regulations imposed by this code in leading the Sabbat. This revised Code of Milan is agreed on by all Sabbat factions, including those of Cardinals Huroff, Bruce de Guy, Agnes and Charles VI; and
| |
| − | Archbishops Beatrice, Una, Tecumseh, Giangaleazzo, Toth, Aeron, Marsilio, Rebecca, Julian and Salluccio. All other
| |
| − | factions must pledge themselves in support of this revised Code of Milan or claim separation from the Sabbat.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | These are the statutes comprising the Code of Milan:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I. The Sabbat shall remain united in its support of the sect’s regent. if
| |
| − | necessary, a new regent shall be ejected. The regent shall support
| |
| − | relief from tyranny, granting all Sabbat freedom.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | II. All Sabbat shall do their best to serve their leaders as long as said
| |
| − | leaders serve the will of the regent.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | III. All Sabbat shall faithfully observe all the Auctoritas Ritae.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | IV. All Sabbat shall keep their word of honor to one another.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | V. All Sabbat shall treat their peers fairly and equally, upholding
| |
| − | the strength and unity of the Sabbat. If necessary, they shall provide
| |
| − | for the needs of their brethren.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | VI. All Sabbat must put the good of the sect and the race of Cainites
| |
| − | before their own personal needs, despite all costs.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | VII. Those who are not honorable under this code will be considered
| |
| − | less than equal and therefore unworthy of assistance.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | VIII. As it has always been, so shall it always be. The Lextalionis shall
| |
| − | be the model for undying justice by which all Sabbat shall abide.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | IX. All Sabbat shall protect one another from the enemies of the sect.
| |
| − | Personal enemies shall remain a personal responsibility, unless they
| |
| − | undermine sect security.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | X. All sect members shall protect Sabbat territory from all other powers.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XI. The spirit of freedom shall be the fundamental principle of the sect.
| |
| − | All Sabbat shall expect and demand freedom from their leaders.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XII. The Ritus of Monomacy shall be used to settle disputes among all
| |
| − | Sabbat.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XIII. All Sabbat shall support the Black Hand.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Addenda to the Code of Milan
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Observed by all witnessing parties present on this night, December 21,1933,
| |
| − | and here after upheld.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XIV. All Sabbat have the right to monitor the behavior and activities of their
| |
| − | fellow sect members in order to maintain freedom and security.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XV. All Sabbat possess the right to call a council of their peers and immediate
| |
| − | leaders.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | XVI. All Sabbat shall act against sect members who use the powers and
| |
| − | authority the Sabbat has given them for personal gain at the expense
| |
| − | of the Sabbat. Action shall be taken only through accepted means,
| |
| − | approved by a quorum of prisci.

| |
| − | The vampires of the Sabbat have evolved their own
| |
| − | specialized patois, much of which takes into account their holy
| |
| − | war on the Antediluvians and the attendant rituals and practices
| |
| − | that follow it. Particularly old Sabbat vampires even recall
| |
| − | terms and phrases that have long since passed into the nights of
| |
| − | forgotten history. Although many of these terms are in common
| |
| − | use among Sabbat vampires, some of them take on different
| |
| − | meanings colloquially, given the lack of formal communication
| |
| − | among sect members. Vampires who would “talk the talk” are
| |
| − | advised to be aware of everything they say and what it means.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Abbot: A vampire or ghoul charged with the maintenance
| |
| − | of a Sabbat pack’s communal haven.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Antitribu: Literally, “anti-tribe” or “anti-clan.” The antitribu are
| |
| − | vampires who have turned their backs on their “parent” clans and
| |
| − | now espouse the policies of the Sabbat instead. One notable
| |
| − | exception to this rule are the Lasombra antitribu, who have abandoned
| |
| − | the Sabbat in favor of independent or Camarilla unlives.
| |
| − | Antitribu are generally held in extremely low regard by their parent
| |
| − | clans, which is especially true in the case of the Lasombra.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Archbishop: A vampire who serves as the leader of a city
| |
| − | under the Sabbat’s influence. Not every Sabbat-held city
| |
| − | claims an archbishop; some have councils of bishops.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Auctoritas Ritae: A collection of 13 rituals practiced by all
| |
| − | vampires of the Sabbat, upheld in a manner similar to the
| |
| − | Biblical Ten Commandments.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Bishop: A vampire who serves or advises an archbishop, or a
| |
| − | vampire who maintains Sabbat influence in a city with the
| |
| − | aid of others of equal status. (Those who are in the know liken
| |
| − | bishops to the primogen of the Camarilla.)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Black Hand: The secret militia of the Sabbat. Some references
| |
| − | allude to another organization with the same name. The
| |
| − | “true” meaning of this term, if there is one, is a matter of much
| |
| − | uncertainty, even among those who claim to be members.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Blood Feast: A victim or group of victims, bound and
| |
| − | suspended upside down. Said victims serve as refreshment at
| |
| − | Sabbat functions.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Brave: A vampire participating in a war party.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Cainite: A vampire. Sabbat vampires use this term in places
| |
| − | where other vampires would use the term Kindred. Sabbat
| |
| − | vampires accept and claim descent from Caine, while the
| |
| − | Camarilla largely claims him to be a myth.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Cardinal: A Sabbat vampire who oversees the influential
| |
| − | affairs of a large territory. Each cardinal is attended by a group
| |
| − | of archbishops, who govern affairs on local city levels.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Chief: The leader of a war party.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Code of Milan: An oft-referenced but rarely seen document
| |
| − | developed as a code of conduct for Sabbat vampires. Some
| |
| − | Sabbat scoff at it, claiming that codifying the sect’s behavior
| |
| − | runs counter to everything the Sabbat stands for.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Column: A permanent pack of Black Hand members,
| |
| − | usually nomadic.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Communal Haven: A single haven shared by an entire pack.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Consistory: The body of advisors to the regent, composed of
| |
| − | key prisci and cardinals.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Convention of Thorns: The treaty that supposedly ended the
| |
| − | Anarch Revolt and resulted in the formation of the Sabbat.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Coven: A pack of Sabbat that makes a permanent haven in
| |
| − | a city; used to differentiate between “founded” packs and
| |
| − | nomadic packs. Most Sabbat cities host numerous covens, in
| |
| − | addition to providing “hospitality” to a seemingly endless
| |
| − | stream of nomadic packs.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Creation Rites: The special ritual marking a Sabbat vampire
| |
| − | as becoming a true member of the sect. The Creation
| |
| − | Rites differ from the Embrace in that anyone can be
| |
| − | Embraced, but until he receives the Creation Rites, the
| |
| − | recruit is not a member of the Sabbat (and thus, not
| |
| − | considered a vampire...).
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Daughters and Sons (of Caine): All vampires. A similar
| |
| − | term with the same meaning is “brothers and sisters.”
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Ductus: The leader of a Sabbat pack. This title is a highly
| |
| − | subjective one, sometimes held by the meanest thug in a
| |
| − | pack while acquired through genuine merit or ritual combat
| |
| − | at other times. The ductus decides the logistical affairs of her
| |
| − | pack, though the wise ductus gives careful ear to her
| |
| − | packmates’ voices.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Esbat: A weekly meeting held by a pack, whether nomadic or
| |
| − | founded. Central to the esbats are discussions of events that
| |
| − | affect the pack as well as the auctoritas and ignoblis ritae.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Festive dello Estinto: The “Festival of the Dead,” a grand
| |
| − | celebration held during the second week of April in Sabbat
| |
| − | cities. All covens attend the festival, as do any nomadic packs
| |
| − | that can make it.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Fire Dance: A ritual and rough celebration in which Sabbat
| |
| − | vampires prove their loyalty and bravery by jumping through
| |
| − | raging fires. Many Sabbat war efforts and other events begin
| |
| − | with fire dances.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Founded Pack: A coven; a pack of Sabbat vampires that
| |
| − | maintains a permanent haven in a city.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Great Jyhad: The war for supremacy in the New World,
| |
| − | begun in the 17th century and arguably raging during the
| |
| − | modern nights.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Hand: The Black Hand.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Headhunter: A Sabbat vampire who collects the skulls of his
| |
| − | fallen foes as trophies. Some headhunters collect only vampire
| |
| − | skulls, while others collect Lupine skulls, mortals’ skulls
| |
| − | or the skulls of witch-hunters. These trophies are considered
| |
| − | great honors in the Sabbat, according to the degree of
| |
| − | difficulty associated with claiming them.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Horseman: A nomadic Sabbat vampire, thought to have
| |
| − | been inspired by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Hulul: The figurehead of the Assamite antitribu, who is
| |
| − | rumored to be ritually destroyed every 100 years.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Ignoblis Ritae: The rituals practiced by individual Sabbat
| |
| − | packs to reinforce unity, loyalty and the causes of the Sabbat.
| |
| − | These rituals vary from pack to pack, and they are considered
| |
| − | less important individually than the auctoritas ritae because
| |
| − | they are not as universally useful. Some Sabbat members
| |
| − | observe no ignoblis ritae at all.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Jyhad: The eternal conflict with other vampires. Sabbat vampires
| |
| − | use this term more loosely than other vampires, because
| |
| − | almost all struggle is a holy war from the Sabbat point of view.
| |
| − | In his mind, a Sabbat takes part in the Jyhad any time he fights.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Kindred: Non-Sabbat vampires. Most Sabbat use this term
| |
| − | derisively, considering Camarilla vampires to be their inferior
| |
| − | and laughing at their “big, happy family” of vampires who
| |
| − | cower from humankind. Many Sabbat also apply the term
| |
| − | “Kindred” sarcastically to vampires of independent clans,
| |
| − | whom they perceive as too selfish or foolish to take up the
| |
| − | cause against the Antediluvians.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Loyalist: A Sabbat vampire who refuses to acknowledge
| |
| − | leaders among the sect out of loyalty to its original goals.
| |
| − | Loyalists believe that to be truly loyal to the Sabbat, they
| |
| − | must have total freedom. Loyalists are commonly viewed as
| |
| − | agitators and dissidents, and they are watched warily by their
| |
| − | packmates and elders. Much of the Sabbat’s terrifying reputation
| |
| − | among other vampires may stem from the actions of
| |
| − | particularly fervent loyalists.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Monomacy: A ritual duel between vampires of the Sabbat,
| |
| − | held under formal rules. This duel is a traditional Sabbat
| |
| − | means of settling disputes, and it often results in the Final
| |
| − | Death of one of the participants.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Nomadic Pack: A pack that travels constantly in its duties to
| |
| − | the Sabbat. Nomadic packs maintain no permanent havens,
| |
| − | but they sometimes keep hidey-holes and emergency havens
| |
| − | throughout their regions of travel. Nomadic packs may also
| |
| − | stop in cities for indeterminate periods of time, but they
| |
| − | eventually return to the roads.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Nomads: Members of nomadic packs.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Pack: A group of Sabbat who have sworn the Vaulderie to one
| |
| − | another. A Sabbat may belong to only one pack at a time
| |
| − | – usually the one that enacted her Creation Rites – though
| |
| − | she may have ties of blood to other packs from her past.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Paladin: A Sabbat vampire who serves another important
| |
| − | vampire as an assassin or bodyguard. Also known as templars,
| |
| − | paladins are greatly feared for their disciplined martial
| |
| − | prowess. Paladins are forbidden from membership in the Black Hand.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Palla Grande: A grand and terrible festival held on All
| |
| − | Hallows Eve, when all Sabbat vampires in a city gather to
| |
| − | celebrate and revere the sect. It often takes the appearance of
| |
| − | a masquerade ball, and humans are sometimes invited as
| |
| − | guests – or refreshments.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Path of Enlightenment: A belief system followed by the more
| |
| − | alien members of the Sabbat in place of Humanity. Paths of
| |
| − | Enlightenment are moral codes that serve to anchor the
| |
| − | Sabbat vampire against her ravening Beast, though some
| |
| − | paths encourage “riding” the Beast rather than controlling it.
| |
| − | The most common paths practiced by the Sabbat include the
| |
| − | Path of Caine, the Path of Cathari, the Path of Death and the
| |
| − | Soul, the Path of the feral Heart, the Path of Honorable
| |
| − | Accord, the Path of Lilith and the Path of Power and the
| |
| − | Inner Voice. Some Sabbat follow the Path of Evil Revelations,
| |
| − | though these vampires are hunted by the Sabbat
| |
| − | Inquisition as heretics and traitors to the sect.
| |
| − |
| |

| |
| − |

| − | Despite its war on the elders, the Sabbat claims some
| |
| − | members who are quite advanced in age themselves. These
| |
| − | vampires recall the nights when the Sabbat was born, and
| |
| − | have carried over or adopted phrases as old as they are.
| |
| − | Beware the vampire who speaks in the tongue of the
| |
| − | Sabbat elders, for she is surely formidable and wicked
| |
| − | beyond belief.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Angellis Ater : The “black angels” of Clan Lasombra,

| |
| − | as the Black Hand.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Revenants: Individuals who are born as ghouls. Revenants
| |
| − | are families of ghouls that have existed for so long with the blood
| |
| − | of their undead masters in their veins that it now passes on to
| |
| − | each of their descendants as well. The vampires of Clan
| |
| − | Tzimisce seem to use revenants most often, and they are often
| |
| − | held in suspicion by others who know of their natures.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Shakari: The eldest vampires among the Assamite antitribu.
| |
| − | Sword of Caine: The Sabbat.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Voivode: The leader of Clan Tzimisce. Some vampires
| |
| − | postulate that there is no single voivode, and the title is one of
| |
| − | inscrutable significance to only the Fiends themselves
