Premascine

Latin for "before the bite", Premascines are Giovanni who were embraced before the diablerie of Cappadocius. The Premascines are members of the Giovanni family, but are seperated from the main clan by age (old), power (major) and location (weird). Premascines generally live in the canals underneath Venice. They life on the blood of the sea life and the occasional human they surface and drain. Under there they conduct bizarre and powerful necromantic experiments which they only occasionally tell the rest of the clan about. They are largely a footnote to Giovanni existence, although an inordinately powerful and foul-tempered one.
