I looked upon the scene before me - upon the mere house, and the simple landscape features of the domain - upon the bleak walls upon the vacant eye-like windows - upon a few rank sedges - and upon a few white trunks of decayed trees - with an utter depression of the soul, which I can compare to no earthly sensation… - Edgar Allan Poe * There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy - William Shakespeare * No Man chooses evil because it is evil; he only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks. - Mary Wollstonecraft * Tell me the news, again, whatever it is... sorrow and I are hardly strangers. I can bear the worst. ― Sophocles

Ethics of the Path

Love only yourself. Don't feel other emotions. shut them away, repress them, or overcome them. More importantly, never show any emotions (mercy, love, hate, etc.), for they reveal your weaknesses. Conceal your pleasures and interests, or others will turn them against you.

Don't feel fear. Face down all your fears, for they're tools the Beast will use against you.

Destroy evil where you find it. Don't suffer evil any longer than you must.

Don't have friends among the Kindred -- only associates. Choose allies carefully. No vampire can be trusted. Destroy those who are evil or who stand in your way.

Resist the Beast when it wants to be free. Fight the frenzy and build your inner strength.

Always think logically. Don't let emotions cloud your judgment. Plan carefully whenever undertaking any important action.

Always use others to your own benefit.

Don't commit violence without just cause. Then, and only then, act without mercy, restraint, or emotion. Never leave an enemy alive or undead.

Among the Kindred, you must be devious. Lie, cheat, steal, murder, and do whatever else is necessary for your own good and the overall good.

Don't waste all your time with debauchery and pleasures. Take what you need, but no more, and never harm innocents in doing so.

Do good wherever you can. Be generous, not greedy. Feed only from animals and evil mortals.
