Summary
From the White Wolf catalog:


 * The Wage of Sin
 * The followers of the Road of Sin are reviled, sometimes tolerated, and sometimes persecuted. But rare is the Cainite who, his Beast howling for sweet vitae, has not given in to that longing. The Sinners have been soothing that Beast for centuries - they know that mastery of the Beast is an illusion. Only through acquiescence can one be truly free. Only through sin can a Cainite know peace. Only on the Via Peccati can the Damned ascend.
