Keepers of Tradition

Keepers of Tradition is an expansion set for Vampire: The Eternal Struggle, published by White Wolf in 2008.

Keepers of Tradition focuses on the Camarilla, and the set's four preconstructed starter decks feature the Brujah, Malkavian, Toreador and Ventrue clans. Two of the other Camarilla-affiliated clans (Nosferatu and Tremere) would each later share a starter deck with a different bloodline in the Heirs of the Blood expansion set. While the Gangrel were no longer in the Camarilla at this point in the Vampire: The Masquerade metaplot, they were still included in this set, although not to the same extent as the other six clans; additionally, they would not receive another starter deck of their own before V:TES was cancelled (their previous and only starter deck was for the Anarchs set).

In 2018, Black Chantry Productions reprinted this set, including three new crypt cards: Hiram DeVries, Gwendolyn Fleming and Osric Vladislav.
