Vampiric Generations

The vampires in this world all start from an ancient king, Domard. Domard would embrace 2 individuals, Belisario and Ruthern, Belisario would embrace two people, before Ruthern killed him and those he embraced before embracing 12 people. These 12 people would become the founders of the dynasties. Vying for more power, Ruthern challenged Domard to a duel. The outcome of this duel results in the two gravely injuring themselves to such an extent, that they end up in a state of “Dormita”, slumber, waiting for the right time when their wounds heal and they can continue their feud. The 12 “Childe” that Ruthern sired, would go their separate ways, and establish the 12 dynasties of Domard. Out of all these, one dynasty came to rule the others, and that would be the Tiayennr dynasty. Through unknown means, the Tiayennr Dynasty would obtain an advantage over the 11 other dynasties that cemented their power over them as a ruling dynasty. These dynasties would embrace outside vampires every so often, and this results in the creation of a new generation, diluting the pure vampiric blood further and resulting in the 12 generations, coincidentally equal to the amount of dynasties there are.

## **1ST GENERATION\*\*\*\***

 This is Domard’s level, this is impossible to reach, as Domard was the progenitor vampire, this is the purest of blood one could only dream of.

## **2ND GENERATION\*\*\*\***

This generation is Belisario and Ruthern’s level, their blood still very pure with a negligible amount of non-vampiric blood present.

## **3RD GENERATION\*\*\*\***

   After the death of Belisario, Ruthern embraced 12 individuals, and they ended up a generation below himself, as he sired them. These 12 individuals were insanely powerful for their time and are responsible for establishing the 12 Vampiric Dynasties.

## **4TH GENERATION\*\*\***

   The 12 Vampiric Dynasty founders themselves began to sire many “childe” and this led to a boom in the vampire population. Around this time, legends of vampires first began to surface, this also introduced feral vampires, as no vampire before had truly starved of blood enough to go feral.

## **5TH & 6TH GENERATIONS\*\*\***

These Vampires are old, just not as old or as influential as their sires a generation before. Though, due to the cutthroat nature of vampiric society, this generation in particular cemented itself as producing many of the more brutal vampires the world has seen.

## **7TH & 8TH GENERATIONS\*\***

This generation is when the scale of power begins to dip drastically, these vampires still hold power, but the elder vampires above them are on a *completely* different level than them.

## **9TH & 10TH GENERATIONS\***

These vampires are fledglings, and still very young(By vampiric standards), this is usually where the average vampire lies generation-wise. An embraced vampire is naturally more powerful than a ritualistic vampire in all ways, due to being given blood directly by a more powerful vampire.

## **11TH & 12TH GENERATIONS\***

The latest generation are so young and diluted in vampiric blood, that their status is considered on par with Ritual-Bloods, with both Ritual-Bloods and the 11th/12th generation vampires both being colloquially called “Thin-Bloods” as a derogatory term by other, higher vampires.
