In the World of Darkness, Caine was cursed for slaying Abel. God turned him into a vampire. He created or "embraced" several other vampires, they embraced other people and so on, down through the years. Every generation that a vampire is removed from Caine, the weaker they are. Generation and blood potency, if you will, is a general measure of how powerful a vampire is. There have been 13 "generations" of vampires since Caine, each weaker than the one before. A 14th generation vampire would be barely distinguishable from a human being in power. The further removed a vamp is from the original vampire, the weaker their blood is, i.e. the weaker their power is, the weaker their vampiric abilities are and the less able they are to pass on their vampirism by embracing vampires under them.There are vampires that are thousands of years old in the WoD. They generally seclude themselves from all modern interactions and have lost all semblance of their humanity. A third generation vampire would be insanely powerful and wily by modern vampire standards. I think all the second generation vampires are dead and Caine is missing, but don't quote me on that.No, there is no virus that I am aware of. It is a curse from God on Caine and his blood. Can vampires self-generate in WoD? Not that I am aware of.</blockquote>
