In the shadowy depths of the ancient world, three powerful vampire clans rule with unmatched strength and mystique. Each clan boasts unique talents, customs, and a deep, complex history that shapes their members. From the blood rituals of the Hadrien to the storm-borne fury of the Argantes and the elusive masters of the shadows, the Nostranis, these immortal beings command both fear and reverence. In these illustrations, we explore the individual members of these clans, each with their own distinct traits, powers, and dark allure. Let their stories and the chilling beauty of their existence unfold before you.
Clan Nostranis - Guardians of the Shadows
The ancient roots of Clan Nostranis go back to the dawn of humanity, when the first nights were much darker and the forces lurking in the shadows still roamed the world freely. According to legend, the founder of the clan, Alandar Nostranis, made an alliance with the gods of the night during a mystical ritual. These deities bestowed the shadows upon him in exchange for eternal life and service in guarding the hidden, dark secrets of the world. Since then, the members of the clan have been masters of the shadows and control the secret flow of information between humans and vampires.

Argantes Clan - The Storm Eaters
The origins of the Argantes clan are intertwined with the forces of nature and the fury of the sky. According to legend, the founder of the clan, Ildarin Argantes, was born in a great storm. According to stories, lightning flashed through the clouds when a mysterious deity who ruled storms and lightning offered him mastery over the elemental forces and eternal life. The bodies of these vampires connect with the power of storms, allowing them to control the wrath of nature. The Argantes clan has been the lords of the sky and lightning ever since.

Clan Hadrien - Lords of the Blood
The history of Clan Hadrien is deeply connected to the dark rites of mankind and the magic of blood. According to legend, the founder of the clan, Kalyon Hadrien, became a vampire during an ancient ritual when he performed human sacrifices for the gods. As a result of the blood ritual, he received eternal life and the power of blood magic. The Hadrien clan has been using blood magic ever since, and in their special rites they constantly draw strength from the blood of their victims.
