Rotschreck, our greatest ally...
We who are children of the sun worship fire in its many forms. Unlike our kin, we harness such powers, making use of the energy contained therein. They fear fire, and in turn they fear us.
Though our history is a short one when compared to that of the clans, we are strong nonetheless. Our enemies' greatest fiend is under our control, and we need not fear that fiend, for it is our ally. Behold now the history of our line...
Our founder was a Caitiff, like many of our kind are. He left the Camarilla after diablerizing one of their own, the Blood Hunt called against him. He soon met up with the Sabbat, becoming a Panders. The thrill of his initiation rites and the yearn for masochistic pain, our founder took on the name Ignis, loving the rush he received from playing with fire.
One day his pack was sent on a mission, a mission ending with our rise. A group of Sabbat in New York were accused of following the Path of Evil Revelations, and this group was to be hunted down and killed. Our founder's pack came upon this group, and immediately a great struggle broke out. In the end, no one but Ignis survived. Much more of this incident we do not know, yet surely Ignis triumphed with great ease.
It was a short time later that Ignis created the first of us, and we in turn created progeny of our own. The power we received from our sire was strange to behold, frightening our victims, yet inspiring to ourselves.
Never truly part of the Sabbat, we were taught how to kill other Kindred, using their curse against them. Ignis lead us to the way of the anarchs, as we still to this day remain. Infiltrating the Camarilla and Sabbat both, we will soon destroy them both, until one day, Ignis alone will rule.
Their anarch ties have led them to join in a common cause with the Guardians of Polaris, another bloodline masquerading as mere anarchs. Although their alliance goes only so far, they trust these friends and work together to bring down the Sabbat and Camarilla both.
Ignis had secretly made a pact with the very demon summoned by the Sabbat within the Path of Evil Revelations. Altering his own blood for the souls of his bloodline, Ignis forged an alliance with this demon, converting to the same path he was out to destroy.
Unfortunately none of his progeny or bloodline know this, and such truths are better left untold...
