TOREADOR CLAN



Clan Toreador would be considered by mortals to be the most beautiful and human like of all the vampire clans. The reason behind this would be because the Toreador still have a love for humanity in their unlife and they often continue or begin relationships with mortals. This is not so much as to remind them of their own past mortality as much as it is to remind them of the beauty and value of mortal life and its effect on the world that they live in.

The Toreador embrace is not painful like that of other clans such as the Nosferatu but instead pains the vampire throughout its unlife. This is not a physical pain but an emotional pain similar to mortal feelings but on a much higher level. Vampires of the Toreador clan try constantly to be accepted by both mortal and Kindred society and until this acceptance is gained then the Toreador will be continuously trying to feel like an equal or higher then those around them.

It is not unheard of other clans having artists of some sort or another in their ranks but the Toreador clan pride itself on its choice of artists and composers because these are considered to be the mainstream of mortal entertainment. If a Toreador fails to make others happy with his or her artwork it can often result in a lifetime or more of obsessive perfection to try and create even a single work which can save the name of the unfortunate vampire and make them an equal in Kindred and mortal society.

Despite all this beauty and humanity a Toreador can be one of the most fearsome opponents one could face. Their love for life and unlife can cause them to fight with unmatched fury against its foes to protect the life of others and of course its own. It is not wise to let yourself be seduced by a Toreador either as nobody can ever know what their real intentions are.
