the Path of Night is alternate philosphy akin to how Humanity works, but shows how far from Human the vampire has become.... instead of clinging to humanity like the weak Camarilla, Sabbat forsake their humanity and embrace that they are vampires, they are predators... they are not just degenerate, they realize they have nothing in common with humanity anymore... and view humanity like how we view, the cow... food. and a diversion... nothing more... very important difference... which many people do not get
Anyways, the Tzimisce is a clan steeped in tradition, or at least it used to be, they along with the Lasombra form the core of the Sabbat, the Tzimisce are the fleshcrafters, and the Lasombra are the masters of shadow... the King Makers as opposed to the Venture who would rather be King themselves...
The Lasombra have powers over shadow, and do not have reflections, and they make extensive use of ghoules among the Sabbat, who tend to not use many ghouls at all, besides the Lasombra, and the Tzimisce and their fleshcrafted minions, and ghoule families...
Anyways, the Salubri are a bloodline now, but used to be a full clan before the Tremere took their power, by killing their founder Saulot, who I beelive is now controlling the Tremere, anyways, the Salubri were at one time, known as Healers, and also warriors, they possess a third eye, which could be tied to Saulot's journey to the East, and his association with the Kindred of the East, or Kuei-Jin, they posses similar disciplines to the abilities of the third eye the Salubri possess
Nowadays the Antitribu Salubri are back with a vengeance, for awhile their numbers were no mroe the seven I beleive, and they would pass on the gift to another, who would then diablerize them, so there would always be seven, but one of them snapped, and created hundreds, and they joined the Sabbat, and want to mete out Justice...
Panders, are pretty much Caitiff, vampires without clan, or bloodline, and well.. whew.. they also have some more exotic bloodlines, but they are not meant for players
