                                 CAANTALSAY



   By Brian Burke

   Nickname: Children of The Void.

   History: The Caantalsay bloodline stems from a 6th generation
   Malkavian who's particular derangement stemmed from a fanatical
   obssesion with time. This individual, who is refered to as Father Time
   by other Caantalsay has recently disappeared. It is rumored that he
   has evoloved to a point where he can gaze into the future as if he
   were an actual participant and has used this power to gaze upon the
   final outcome of the Jyhad. What he saw was supposedly enough to drive
   him deeper into any madness ever known by any other Malkavian.

   The exact origin of the Bloodline and the date of the first childe
   created by Father Time is unkown. Though most Caantalsay beleive it
   was around the time of the Inquisition.

   Recruitment: Caantalsay usually choose those who have a similiar
   affinity for time as themselves. Sometimes this includes Historians,
   Archeologist's, and so forth. Some Malkavian's are rumored to have
   been taken in and tought Vendaal, but it is said only a Malkavian is
   capable of understanding the truth behind the mechanics of time.

   Characteristics, Traits, and so forth: The Caantalsay community is
   varied. Many though tend to lean toward Mental attributes as their
   primary.

   Many Caantalsay have a few levels of History and related abilities.
   Many also have the Investigation, Empathy, Performance, and some skill
   with stringed instruments.

   Organization: The Caantalsay still associate with the Malkavian and so
   tend to be present at their get-togethers. It is rare that a group of
   Caantalsay will get together, many do not know they are of a seperate
   Bloodline and would be very shocked if told they were. The majority of
   Kindred are unaware that the Caantalsay even exist and wouldn't
   beleive it if they were told. If it could be proved many would pay for
   their unique services.

   Never the less, if a Caantalsay is aware that another of his kind is
   in trouble they will go out of their way to help that person, but of
   course will expect the same in return.

   Weaknesses: First and foremost the Caantalsay are still tied to the
   Malkavian clan, therefore they suffer from a mandatory Derangement
   [PC's choice]. In addition to a chosen derangement the character has
   an Obsession with time.

   Also, Caantalsay resent being slaves to time, therefore they are
   usually too early or too late for appointments, meetings, and such.
