Absimiliard

One of the more uncompromisingly evil Antediluvians, Absimiliard is the hated and feared founder of clan Nosferatu, a clan he still seeks to exterminate in the modern nights.

As with all Antediluvians, any stories of Absimiliard's early life (and unlife) are apocryphal at best. Tradition holds that he was an expert and stealthy hunter whose skill at predation inflamed the dead heart of his female sire (therefore, presumably, Zillah). She chased and embraced him, although in the ensuing struggle she also scarred him lightly. A creature of prodigious vanity, this trivial marring of his otherwise perfect looks drove him to obsession, and Absimiliard conceived to murder his sire.

Absimiliard is held to be one of the leading figures in the slaughter of the Second Generation, with his vendetta against his sire being the cause of the ensuing violence. As a result, he was harshly punished by Caine, twisted into a hideous mockery of a human being. The curse reverberated through his childer, affecting every one of his descendants.

Since that time, Nosferatu has hunted his descendants, using blood bound agents, the Nictuku to hunt down the rest of the line. He plans to present their death as a sacrifice to Caine and beg forgivness.
