The Aabbt Kindred are 15 African cobras that were Embraced by the methuselah Nefertiti, something that is impossible under normal circumstances.

Biography[]

Nefertiti is unique in the aspect that her potent blood (and possibly Setite Sorcery rituals) has managed to actually transfer the Embrace to animals, something that should be impossible.

The Aabbt Kindred were once simple African Cobras. Almost a century ago, Nefertiti decided to test whether or not animals could be Embraced, and sired a number of the creatures. The cobras have long been Blood Bound to Nefertiti, allowing her to train them as her guardians. While the cobra’s are amazingly powerful in a physical sense, Nefertiti discovered that the animals have a greater difficulty in learning Disciplines of a mental nature than they do of a physical nature.

The creatures have increased in intelligence over the years, allowing her to teach them new tricks, including the ability to use Serpentis to change into quasihuman shape. These beasts are still very driven by their natural instincts, a fact shown by their fear of fire. Nefertiti has seen the results of the cobra’s venom, and is highly pleased by the effects on both Kindred and kine. It will kill a mortal almost immediately, but when striking a vampire, the venom is only lethal if the the venom has not been forced out of the body. Resulting in the Kindred dropping into torpor immediately.

Nefertiti has sired 15 Aabbt Kindred, learning that if they are not blood bound and Dominated, or of a nocturnal nature, they would eventually wander out into the sunlight and die. To ensure their continued loyalty, Nefertiti still feeds them her own blood. However, she has noticed they still hunt down rodents out of habit. Upon occasion they will hiss and then bite.

Character Sheet[]

Image: The Aabbt Kindred appear to be ordinary cobras in their natural form, but if using their Serpentis, they can transform into a humanoid shape. The humanoid form stands roughly six feet tall and is covered with fine scales. While the faces of the humanoids are more mobile, the cobras seem to lack control of the new muscular shapes, and often have nervous twitches. The cobras maintain both their black, snake-like eyes and their venomous fangs in either form.
Roleplaying Hints: Upon occasion you will hiss, then you will bit.

Trivia[]

  • The Aabbt Kindred are able to turn into half-human snake creatures; this is similar to the fourth power of Serpentis, 'Typhonic Avatar', and this is despite them only having reached the third level on their character sheets.
