Camarilla Game ~ The Geheime Fragments.

The Order of Zillah.

First appearing in April 1995, the order became a familiar presence, if not sight, in city until mid 2003. An all female order of Vampires (and mention is made of Wraiths similar in garb and activity) appearing identical physically: average height and slim. Few other conclusions can be drawn physically, as they wore masks and long, black, sleeved dresses with gloves; the only splash of colour being red eye-lenses. Rarely seen, their flesh is deathly pale and what lies beneath the mask is unknown to the author. It is questionable if any have seen the faces below, but rumours they resemble an extinct ethnic group (Babylonian) are unconfirmed.

So what is known? The Tremere have analysed their blood, and their generation is 13th, due to a ritual “Quenching the Lambent Flame” which reduces a willing kindred of any generation to 13th. This also masks the clan the kindred belonged to. They are observers, and all seem to share a mental link – what one knows, all seem to. They are skilled in the arts of Obfuscate and Auspex, and seemingly a little practised branch of Thaumaturgy involving creation. They have only exhibited the ability to create small notes in lieu of speech. These are commonly insightful and/or prophetic; though often too cryptic to be of use until after the event they refer to. Although regular visitors to Elysium, they normally remained invisible, watching. The only one to act did so involuntarily at the moment of her death.

A member of the Order was responsible for beginning the city, influencing Hugh of Stafford into choosing this location, after this they were content to merely observe. How many actually existed is not known, but five is the most seen at one time “the Camarilla assault on Birmingham made use of their information net, linking five separate coteries”.

The Order, named for one of Caine's Childer, came to an end recently. Their closeness led to a fatal vampiric disease spreading quickly among their members. If enough of them did survive, their ancient order may rise again. Time will tell.
