Gone but Not Forgotten

Malkavian

Camilla Banes

First Malkavian Justicar. In the late mid- and late-1400s, Bob pleads with Camilla Banes to remove the Malkavians form consideration and throw the clan's support behind the Tremere instead. Obviously, Bob is unsuccessful in her efforts; the Malkavians join the Camarilla in 1486.

Vasantasena

The First Malkavian Antitribu. Bob has a lengthy conversation with the first Malkavian antitribu at the Convention of Thorns / Sack of Silchester. Bob is firmly opposed to the Camarilla but also sees the dark future of what the Sabbat will become. Based on this conversation, Bob refuses to join the Sabbat, fixing her path as Unaligned
