Vampire: The Masquerade Clans: Banu Hakim vs. Clan Malkavian
Send us a text
Malcolm is the GM today while Tori calls in and is on the air remotely! The ladies cover a couple of clans in VTM for this episode. Arcadia leads off by talking about the Banu Hakim. This clan isn’t one of the most well-known clans in VTM because it's one of the most isolated and isn't part of the Camarilla. The Banu Hakim clan has its own history, caste system, and organization. The Masquerade isn't as necessary for them as it is for other clans, and they've stepped away from most Kindred society. They're a clan of laws and judges, which brings them a fair bit of infamy and even some prejudice from the Western world. Arcadia chose this clan because the sheer amount of lore drew her in. Tori comes back from break with Clan Malkavian, another of the original 13 clans. This clan can be played as a joke clan to most because it's the clan of madmen who use mental illness both to their advantage and to their detriment. It's also a group of seers and for those who have powers that don't fall under the purview of any of the other clans. Every member of the clan was chosen with a specific purpose in mind; the sire chooses with a purpose but may also abandon their children soon after the embrace. Clan Malkavian also utilizes the Cobweb to their advantage, creating a built-in network to reach their clanmates, even if it does end up being a very random thing. If you couldn't tell, we really like this TTRPG.
