House Goratrix

House Goratrix is an organisation, developed by Goratrix himself, when he defected to the Sabbat. Its is believed to be a mockery of the pyramide of the Tremere clan, that Goratrix had co-founded. Like all Tremere antitribu, they are regarded with suspicion and sometimes hatred. They also share the curse of the Tremere.

In addition to regular Thaumaturgy, the Tremere antitribu of House Goratrix study Dark Thaumaturgy

Description
The Sabbat makes no distinction between Tremere Antitribu, but similar to the division between the Country- and City Gangrel, there is a division of sorts between the Tremere of the Sabbat. The difference is not particularly profound compared to the Gangrel division, though.

While the Antitribu of the Americas were a product of the 18th century wars that rocked the continent for half a century, the House of Goratrix developed somewhat earlier in Europe when Goratrix, one of the original Council of Seven, turned traitor on the Tremere. Their habits are somewhat different; in Europe they maintain their own chantries outside of Sabbat temples, whereas the Americans cordon off chunks of temples for labs. Also, in Europe the Lasombra are far more prominent than in America (most Sabbat Tzimisce being located in the New World), so that the Tremere in general are more powerful. The primary competition is first with the mainline clan, and second with the Old Clan Tzimisce, who make no distinction between mainline and Antitribu.

Organisation
The organization of House Goratrix is a bit more formal than that of the American Antitribu, somewhat remniscent of the Hermetic structure of the original clan. Goratrix sits at the top, ostensibly over all Tremere Antitribu (though the Americans are too autonomous to really recognize his authority). There is a Council of Six, a number chosen to parody the beliefs of those who swear by numerology. Below that, there is a Jesuitish rule of obedience to Sire and Pack.

Ultimate Fate
When Goratrix became possessed by Tremere and all Tremere antitribu were destroyed in Mexico City in 1999, the House was efectivly disbanded
