The younger Brujah rebelled against their elders. The Tzimisce got wind of this and created the Viniculum to destroy existing blood bonds. The Lasombra hopped on board during this time as well as many many younger vampires of all the different clans who where tired of being oppressed. The rebels, or anarchs as they where called, began to purge their clan of it's elders.Lasombra himself was killed. Tzimisce was thought to have died as well, but he had basicly became a god by that point and simply killed and took the form of the vampire (Lugoj) that was thought to have killed him. With the exception of only about 5 people in the whole world, everyone thinks Tzimisce is dead.So anyway, the elders of the other clans called the Convention of Thorns. At the convention, the elders called a truce to what had then been dubbed "The Anarch Revolt". They tell the young rebels that all is forgiven and that they should cease conflict. (Note that during this time, the Assamites have been on an unholy killing spree and have killed many many elders for their blood.)Unfortunatly, some vampires had done things so horrible that they knew the elders would never forgive them. As killers of their founders, the Lasombra and Tzimisce rejected the truce as a whole. Many other vampires of other clans decided that they would face similar repercussions and so they sided with the Lasombra and Tzimisce and became the Antitribu.By this time, the Assamites had become extremely addicted to vampiric blood and had no intention of calling off their hunt. The Tremere took care of this and cast a curse upon the entirety of the Assamites who attended the convention. The curse caused them to become violantly allergec to vampiric blood. Because of the curse, they decided to submit to the elders.However, some of the Assamites decided to join the Sabbat and did not attend the Convention. Free of the curse, they joined the Sabbat and played a big part in the creation of the Black Hand. The Hand is sort of a special forces team within the Sabbat.It was at this time that the Tremere cast another curse. They put a mark upon the head over every member of their clan that sided with the Sabbat.Since that time, a lot has changed. Most notably in the time period ranging from about 1998-2001. During this time, one of the remaining vampires of Clan Salubri joined the Sabbat and created over a hundred Salubri Antitribu.The Ravnos founder arrose and was killed. this time was called the Week of Nightmares as the vampires of clan Ravnos attacked each other in insane frenzy. The clan was almost wiped out.The Harbingers of Skulls arose seemingly from nowhere. When asked where they came from, their response was that they had crossed the Veil into the world of the living from the world of the dead. They joined the Sabbat.Clan Gangrel left the Camarilla and went anarch after their Justicar encountered what he beleived to be an Antediluvian. Many joined the Sabbat.The Tremere Antitribu were all destoyed in a rituel enacted by Soulot, the founder of the Salubri.The Malkavians of the Camarilla regained use of the discipline Dementation. Up until recently, none knew the power and only the Malkavians of the Sabbat used it. None know why.Whew... I'm sure I forgot a lot. I'm a bit rusty.</blockquote>
