Sabbat

The Sabbat is, in essence, a sect based in the Noddhist belief that Gehenna is fast approaching, an apocalyptic event in which the eldest vampires will rise up and devour their progeny. The Sabbat is devoted to building an army to fight this war, regardless of its reality and the other sects willing to fight them, every step of the way.

Sabbat packs are structured with a Ductus at the top, having earned their position through permitted duels known as Monomacy. Alongside the Ductus, a Priest serves, maintaining the Sabbat codes, and the lore of their kind.

Baltimore
The exact number of Sabbat in Baltimore was unknown by the Camarilla for a time, with estimates ranging from dozens of mass-embraced Shovel-Heads to a single pack, but their presence was felt around the city; Kindred often felt eyes watching them in dark alleys as they fed, and Havens had been set alight just before dawn. Only a single pack were present, led by Ductus Gisalberht and the Priest Cole, waiting on the fringes of the city for the perfect moment to strike. They attacked when the Camarilla was weak with infighting between those loyal to Bihan and those serving the Primogen.
