This clan allows players to use arcane powers to control their own blood and that of their enemies while keeping a safe distance in combat, boiling their blood, shaping their own vitae into projectiles to hurl at foes, and even ripping the blood from their veins.

The player can choose to assign the playable protagonist Phyre, to the Tremere to benefit from the clan's abilities, or even the Brujah - which the developer unveiled last week - who offer a brutal melee playstyle with its abilities "getting you into the fray and rewarding you for staying there." 

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is the successor to the cult-classic Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines and takes players to the underbelly of Seattle where vampires struggle for survival and supremacy.
