XOLOTL
By Lee Scolin (scolin@globalnet.co.uk)
Description
' The Xolotl, or Children of Yaotzin, claim to be the childer of a daemon and as such act in very much the same way as their supposed sire. They are all Malfean Infernals, dedicating their unlives to the worship of Yaotzin, The Enemy. As a direct result of their twisted upbringing they have no knowledge of the existence of other Kindred in the World of Darkness as Yaotzin wishes them to remain hidden from the outside world. Each and every one of the Xolotl are evil incarnate, moulded to act whenever told to by their Sire, who still takes a very active role in the day to day affairs of the bloodline he created. From the teachings of their Sire they are descendents from an ancient Aztec god called Tezcatlepoca, The Pandemonium, whom Yaotzin himself worships, and every temple, or Anahuac, is based on Aztec architecture. Their sole purpose is to obey The Enemy, the reason they were given the curse of unlife.
Nickname
Appearance
The favoured colour among the Enticers is red and black, Death and Corruption. There is no strict dress code as they take many human guises to achieve their ends, so the clothing changes from alter-ego to alter-ego.
Haven
Their haven is with their Sire in the First Temple. None are allowed to sleep anywhere else unless they have duties which make this impossible or impractical.
Background
The choice as to who is Embraced comes from Yaotzin's High Priestesses, The Nine Sisters, who choose only the most sadistic, depraved, and evil of Yaotzin's mortal followers from his secret society, The Forever Night Members Club, once every year. All Enticers are members of The Forever Night Members Club, but apart from that the only qualifications needed are a hatred and contempt for human life (including their own) and the ability to express this in physical form. Everything from sadism to mental abuse is acceptable.
Character Creation
They can have any Nature or Demeanor although Deviant is common among both. Physical attributes are normally Primary , as are Talents, but this is not carved in stone. Due to their Sire's Generation, no Enticer can be any lower than 9th Generation. Any concept is appropriate.
Clan Disciplines
Weaknesses
The Xolotl are dark beings and as such it comes as no surprise to them that the sun is more damaging to them than other vampires. They take double damage from sunlight and are at -1 to all dice rolls in bright light.
Preferred paths
There is only one path for the damned, The Path of Evil Revelations.
Organisation
They are the Children of Yaotzin; there is nothing else but to do as he wills. Any infighting that does go on between them is soon stopped and punished by Yaotzin, a sight terrible to behold. They are his soldiers and his protectors. They prepare the way for his coming to a new area. Every year they gather to greet the newly embraced and to discuss future plans with their Sire. Those who are newly embraced spend their first year with Yaotzin in order to prepare for the task ahead. In times of trouble all can be called upon at any time to defend their siblings from internal and external threats no matter what the cost in life (mortal or undead). The Xolotl are very territorial and will defend what they feel is theirs unto the Final Death.
Gaining Clan Prestige
Gaining Yaotzin's favour is foremost in the minds of the Xolotl, and they can get very competitive in their attempts to attract his attention. Mini Jyhads are created in such ways. Ways to achieve this include corrupting a particularly pious person or destroying an enemy of Yaotzin callously. Any act of cruelty or evil gains favour with Yaotzin, as long as it does not interfere with his plans.
