Ahrimanes

Louisiana is the home of one of the younger Sabbat bloodlines, the Ahrimanes. The bloodline is small, having perhaps two dozen members, half of whom live in the Louisiana/ Alabama/ Mississippi area. The line consists solely of vampires that have gone through a special ritual know as the Rite of the Third Birth.
This ritual was learned centuries ago by the line's founder, Muricia. At her insistence, the ritual has only been used on Gangrel antitribu, and only on women, whom she considers spiritually pure. The ritual grants the recipient a new Discipline, Spiritus, giving the vampire some access to the spirit world. However, it thins the vampire's blood, so that the vampire may no longer sire, create ghouls, or blood bond other kindred.
The nomadic Sabbat's survival in Louisiana is largely due to Muricia. She is very familiar with the wilds of the region and the shape-shifters who live there. She is often at odds with John Murrell about the priorities of the Sect in this area. Muricia and her Children have long engaged in a war with the Setites, and fears that a Sabbat invasion of New Orleans would be as much an opportunity for the Snakes as for the Sect.
Because of the Ahrimanes inability to bond other kindred, they have some difficulty with Viniculum. Because of Muricia's power in this region, some (though not all) of her children maintain an independent existence, not a member of any pack, thus avoiding being bound to vampires that cannot be bound to her. This is another major point of connection between Murrell and Muricia.
