As a Salubri apologist, while they were reduced to the numbers of a bloodline, they were an actual clan once and not an off-shoot like let's say Mariner Gangrel. You could argue to cut Ravnos for the same reason, but I'm actually happy we have both as playable options. Also, from the V5 mechanics perspective you can't treat them as a bloodline like the various Hecata ones because you wouldn't have a clan to use as a base for them. While there is a standalone loresheet for the Daughters of Cacophony, due to those restrains, it sort of kind of alludes that you might have some of their blood, but not necessarily.
Yeah I was wondering about that since I read about them on the wiki recently. It does seem like Salubri are better for more experienced players at least to me (havent played yet)
@@anotherperson2627 A lot of people houserule them because especially in V5 their Bane is nearly impossible to play. For the record, if you use any ability, your third eye starts bleeding.That's pretty bad, but that sets off the second part of your bane, your blood is SUPERNATURALLY DELICIOUS AND THE SMELL OF IT MAKES ALL YOUR FRIENDS WANT TO DRINK YOU.

As a person who got immediately fell in love with the Kiasyd after your previous video on bloodlines that would probably not get added to 5e. I must admit lack of bloodline options was one of the main reasons I switched over to older editions.
to be fair in the lore Salubri (and cappadocians) are one of the original 13 clans but Tremer diablerized their clan founder and had his pseudo-vampire bloodline diablerize his childer to become full vampire so Tremer pretty much wiped out the clan and replaced them with only a few survivors in the modern nights
Lore of The Bloodlines will inform you there's actually a lot more Salubri than you think, you know, from the healer caste not the warrior one, gotta say though, that rumor about the 7 or 8 or whatever left is kinda the same sketchy tactic that baali use to divert attention from themselves.
@@jacobmoorman6323 the sabbat recruit a lot of salubri maybe theres more in the sabbat the the 7 to 8 independents that are trying to do right by the original salubri ideals
@@kobold7466 ye. Traditionally speaking you have the majority of what remains of the healer salubri sticking to a community that they trust whole heartedly, a lot of newer salubri (not all) exist with existing families or tight knit communities with the 7 sorta doing their thing with this crazy diablerist golconda cult they got going on. The Salubri warriors answer to Adonai, who joined the Sabbat solely in the name of revenge against the Tremere. And the watcher caste are just... sort of around? They're very mysterious but they just seem to me like victims of their obsessions than anything else.
For folks confused about why Salubri are referred to as a bloodline here: it's because that's what they've always been considered in the modern nights. Since White Wolf introduced them in the VtM 1E Player's Guide, they've been referred to as a clan-turned-bloodline by virtue of their massively diminished numbers, and the lack of any real remaining elders.

I know I'm late, but I wish you the best BurgerKrieg. I hope things continue to improve. I started a Mage campaign after seeing your content. So thanks not only for a playlist i binge on the regs, but also hours of fun with my friends.
To counterpart your Drauger (pronounced 'droo-gah' FYIK), there's actually an aquatic counterpart called the Draugen. Where Drauger are the land ghouls of the graveyard and come in great numbers, the Draugen is a singular entity that embodies the fear of death on the water. The Draugen is often encountered late at night by the riverfront and will be sitting on something you need, stopping you in your tracks and forcing you to acknowledge it. But if you sail at night you will never see the Draugen until it's far, far too late.
this has me thinking of the slavic vampire myth of the boneless sack of flesh and blood that would roll over someone in their sleep and suffocate them, and the idea is fascinating. obviously a mix of tzimisce and nosferatu or the offshoot mutation of gargoyle experiments, absolutely masquerade breaches, maybe vaguely feral but with lower generation abilities. i'm excited to actually try and homebrew some stuff now!
Love that you got to do an interview with St Pete by Night! I just did one on my Portland by Night and Rose City at Twilight projects. They're good people. I am disappointed to see no Sparkly Vampires on this bloodline list. I am of the firm opinion that if WoD had been written 20 years later there would have been a whole sparkly clan!
I run a game where I'm flat lifting whole sections of Orpheus' metaplot and introducing ghost shenanigans which are part of a Sabbat infiltration of the city. My players are rolling between supernatural detectives, ghostbusters, and running from the local angry werewolves who are pissed off about the spirit world getting fucked up by various kine and kindred fucking with the afterlife nearby.
I mean this with the highest respect, your videos are gold tier on my sleep playlist. Your voice is perfectly balanced with emotion and factual gameplay so thank you for a new video I can enjoy in my waking hours and my sleeping ones 🖤
I should move my arse to work on my homebrew bloodline, called Ferrus. Basically vampires that manipulate iron in the blood and vitae, from making Wolverine like claws, up to vitae eating metal like acid, and even something akin to metalbending ATLA style
Sorry to hear its a difficult month Burgerkrieg I hope it gets better Man I love this I need to homebrew a bloodline that uses Visceratika, I loved that Discipline the power to sense people in a building by touching the walls was so thematic and cool
Honestly I'm more interested what players do with WoD than whatever the publisher decides is canon. Coming up with backstories to justify your homebrews is really fun for creative writing and gets more campaign ideas going.
They have a bane that makes em delicious and got genocided... R.I.P. Had one in a coterie some months back. He was an insane pharmacist! Kinda good dude. Or at least a better dude than most of us chumps.
i've been playing with creating a bloodline that revolves around blood magic (usually their own form of necromancy but occasionally their own equivalent of thaumaturgy), animalism and presence. Their whole shtick is basically ancient greek sorcerors. the greek branch are known for their familiars in the form of Black dogs. it is said this bloodline and their companions are as one. They worship the goddess Hecate, and believe she created them to protect all wanderers, gates and black hounds. There used to be other branches but the only surviving one is an Irish one who use ravens instead. They follow one of the Three Morrigans. Morrigan, Babd or Macha. Depending on whom they follow their disciplines change. By the way who they follow is contigent on their first dream that they receive as their embrace changes them. where of the three will choose them. the Dream is often described as the Goddess arguing with herself as she judges as to who they would be most useful for. I still need to balance the bloodline (and name them) but I hope at least my idea inspires someone.
@@jordanetherington1922they definitely need work, but I made them because I love ancient descriptions of magic. It's just very weird. and i'm trying to get that in this bloodline.
Just responding to the beginning few minutes, but true lol Salubri is difficult to call a Clan (since Tremere usurped them via diablerie) and more of a Bloodline due to how few of them they are (though, depends if 5th edition keeps Saulot taking Tremere's body or not as Saulot was very important to the Metaplot in the older editions, and I still need to read 5th edition's lore to see what's in the books). Though, I do like that they made Salubri a Clan, but I wish they incorporated the Bloodlines better as Hecata is really the only one that seems to have brought attention to them. And time to watch the rest of the video!
It would make a fair deal of sense for the Draugr to have some sort of blood sorcery. Maybe even recreate the good ol' fashioned Koldunic Sorcery for them. Draugr were capable of weather manipulation. On an interesting note an Icelandic Draug by the name of Glamsýni would probably be a Maeghar Draugr. Glamsýni of the Grettis saga was, by VtM logic, very recently embraced when he encountered Grettir. Glamsýni had the typical Draug traits. He was a corpse and very strong. However, when he died the last thing he did was curse Grettir. With his final breath he cursed Grettir to never again grow stronger. He cursed him to with rage spoil his victories. Finally he cursed him to never be restful in sleep, as the eyes of Glamsýni would follow him in the shadows forever. His curse was threefold and we know how changelings love their rule of three. He was an Icelander native and a Pagan, killed and made a Draug by another Draug who kill him on behalf of God for the high sin of blasphemy to a priest's face. A Kinain with Troll parentage being a dick to a priest before being killed and embraced by a Draugr, only to come out what would have been known as Kiasyd at the time, would be very fitting. He was super strong, has the appearance of a rotted corpse, and had some manner of magic. His name is a root for the word "glamor". Maeghar gain two of their sire's disciplines and Mytherceria.
I loved the video! I’ve been wanting to run VTM 5e for my friends and I’m always looking for new inspiration or advice. I’ll have to show this to some of my (hopeful) players to spur some creativity.
I've never played this game before. I don't even know what I would do if I wanted to play it, since no one I know plays it. But burgerkrieg's oration captured me for this hour
I feel like Impart Memory would allow for a Starcraft 2 reference so easily. Someone doesnt believe what your saying, so you just press your hand to their forehead and say "Believe" while imparting a memory.
A few months ago I read the V5 rule book and came up with something like this. He was a mix blooded vampire with Potence, Fortitude, and Celerity. His bane was preadators presence which simply made everyone around him intensely uncomfortable, including other vampires. His compulsion was a prey obsession which would compel him to hunt and feed upon a specific entity, often supernatural in nature. His primary ability was to suppress the signs of diablerie.
Yaaaaay, love hombrew))) I sometimes hombrew minor Banner Houses for CtD PS: you have double : in one of the timecodes PPS: Leshiy is what official CtD sourced use for some Inanimae (mainly Cuberas and gladeling mannikins) of Russia. Me, I use them as a local parlance for Ghille Du. PPPS: TOTW might also use kinain mechanics for using cantrips, especially dark arts.
I'm fully taking Them From The Vaults and putting them in CofD/Changeling the Lost. Where they were just a bunch of vampires that one of the gentry took and made into Changelings.
This gives me an idea for a bloodline that's an amalgamation of Clans Gangrel and Tremere, they're basically vampire druids. Their disciplines are Thaumaturgy and Animalism but they also have access to Koldunic Sorcery. I haven't decided on a name for them or a bane/compulsion yet though.
Oh look, a 1 hour Bugerkrieg video about vampires to listen to whilst I work on the newest addition to my vampire themed Minecraft castle. Metatron was able to cover the last addition. Who's next?
A bloodline of the Clan Malkavian. Although I assume that they could believe themselves to be the original clan and other Malkavians a bloodline just like Bruja-True Bruja and Cappadocians-Giovanni.
Although I'm more of a v20 fanboy this all look very interesting! -If only I had friends to play with- I would love to play around with them. A little heads up: the timestamp for the Draugr bloodline has an extra : messing the chapters. Otherwise great stuff! Keep up the good work :D
Well damn, now I gotta rewrite my campaign... Although, on the subject of homebrew, do look up Clan Błędnica (fully English, despite how it looks). Kind of a twisted mirror image of the Draugr but really flavorfull
Draug or Draugr are spirits from Scandinavian beliefs that guard graves, barrows, and cairns. They possess corpses or empty suits of armor or even just weapons, causing them to float and attack intruders. The Draugr from Skyrim aren't the corpses you fight. Rather, they've possessed corpses around the tombs you find and you can't actually get rid of them. In the Witcher 2, you encounter Draugr that have possessed suits of armor, but a curse has redirected their enmity towards people that have wandered onto a former battlefield instead of into a burial ground.
I like the publication of all of Vampire Secrets (tm) idea, it reminds me of Jim Butcher's Black Court vampires getting screwed by Bram Stoker and his book. Absolutely, silk-out-the-butt. Modern trends like blockchain, cryptocurrency, and ai "learning" (leeching) off of the talent of others DOES seem very vampiric in nature, so Phreaks would fit right in to all of that. LOVE changeling vampires. I really like all the overlapping creatures of WoD, and always thought (for example) an Abomination made for a compelling, but tragic character of npc concept. An aspect of WoD I've been surprised was never developed out more was a water-based clan/bloodline. Pirates of the Caribbean-style relentless undead from thousands of years if humanity's naval history, swamp/bog-dwellers, and lake haunters feeding off of sailors, the unluckily stranded, and stupid and/or drunk partiers. I used to use the Samedi for this in old games (desiccating powers), but its always felt like a missed opportunity publication-wise.
There's something to homebrew that's always a bit more tasty than vanilla material. Congrats on the boyfriend, not sure if that was mentioned before but I think it's the first time we heard of that. Sorry about the grandma.
Question about the Iron Core power: if the vampire can become Impaired but still not convert superficial damage to aggravated, does that mean they just don't take any damage while Impaired? If so, this power would make them totally invincible as long as they can keep the power active.
I'm deeply hurt to finish the Leshy part and not hear a single mention of my favorite tree vampires: Lhiannan. You think the Ministry are a blood cult? At least they don't have a discipline ENTIRELY dependant of human sacrifices. Playing one of those in DA is wild, i tell ya
Salubri are a clan. Was in the ancient times, is now just the SIZE of a bloodline. Love the content Burger! ... Shit, how would you GET the Salubri included in your idea of Lore in BurgerWoD?
Damn it Burger, the city is pronounced New "Or-Lense" the Parish is "Or-leans" the street in the city is "Or-leans" but God damnit on my momma the city is pronounced Or-lense. Keep up the superb work.
I have a homebrew Bloodline, the Vaerminus who are infused with an insect swarm during their Embrace which eats them from the inside out and becomes one with them. (Inspired by the daughters Dimitrescu). Anyway, I can absolutely Arrange vampires mistaking a Spider Vaerminus as one of their own, for some amusing hijinks.

Super cool Idea. I brought back the Baali for my VTM5 game set in Miami.
Crossovers of different splats in bloodlines, hell yeah!
Oh look, a 1 hour Bugerkrieg video about vampires to listen to whilst I work on the newest addition to my vampire themed Minecraft castle.
Metatron was able to cover the last addition.
Who's next?
Curupira mentioned, therefore I am immensely happy :D
the leshy really makes me think of the Lhiannan. (Just without the soul breaking to have kids)
Kuddos for the symbols from the card game.
Gonna steal these for my v20 game (and maybe for some w20 stuff too) hehehehehe (but, seriously, great video!)
I like the Witcher music during the Leshy section, very nice touch
I look forward into adding these clans into my ongoing San Diego By Night chronicle!
Awesome content, nothing more to add 🤯
i wonder if you plan on ever doing a demon the fallen video (i am one of the seven Demon the Fallen fans in existence)
If there is 7 of you (one for each choir of angels) then I assume there there would be exactly 0 fans of Demon:The Descent?
I cannot tell you how hard I lost it when I heard Burger say "These are iPad kids"
I cannot understand why you haven't broken 100k subs yet.
...I want to see a "buddy cop" team between a Phreek and a Glass Walker. SOMEONE GET ON THIS
Clan Chocula with their Breakfast Focused Disciplines.
A bloodline of the Clan Malkavian. Although I assume that they could believe themselves to be the original clan and other Malkavians a bloodline just like Bruja-True Bruja and Cappadocians-Giovanni.
Bless you, Krieger. Thx for the vid and be fine, I'm really would like you being fine
I wanna make Mage the Ascension crafts because of this video
Although I'm more of a v20 fanboy this all look very interesting! -If only I had friends to play with- I would love to play around with them.
A little heads up: the timestamp for the Draugr bloodline has an extra : messing the chapters. Otherwise great stuff! Keep up the good work :D
Looking for players too! Do you do digital?
@@salazasauceproductions5100 Oh sorry, I didn't meant that I'm looking for players cause sadly my current time schedule is too tight 😭
@@hi-im-huesitos Aw shucks
love your rpg stuff dude
Well damn, now I gotta rewrite my campaign... Although, on the subject of homebrew, do look up Clan Błędnica (fully English, despite how it looks). Kind of a twisted mirror image of the Draugr but really flavorfull
29:40 smoothest insert ever!
That's what she said!
Draug or Draugr are spirits from Scandinavian beliefs that guard graves, barrows, and cairns. They possess corpses or empty suits of armor or even just weapons, causing them to float and attack intruders. The Draugr from Skyrim aren't the corpses you fight. Rather, they've possessed corpses around the tombs you find and you can't actually get rid of them. In the Witcher 2, you encounter Draugr that have possessed suits of armor, but a curse has redirected their enmity towards people that have wandered onto a former battlefield instead of into a burial ground.
Congrats on your boyfriend!
Also you should really put these on the Storyteller's Vault if you haven't!
im here for this
40:15 Blood Silk!
Can we appreciate a random Burgerkrieg lore drop? (I mean personal lore not vtm lore)
I like the publication of all of Vampire Secrets (tm) idea, it reminds me of Jim Butcher's Black Court vampires getting screwed by Bram Stoker and his book.
Absolutely, silk-out-the-butt.
Modern trends like blockchain, cryptocurrency, and ai "learning" (leeching) off of the talent of others DOES seem very vampiric in nature, so Phreaks would fit right in to all of that.
LOVE changeling vampires. I really like all the overlapping creatures of WoD, and always thought (for example) an Abomination made for a compelling, but tragic character of npc concept.
An aspect of WoD I've been surprised was never developed out more was a water-based clan/bloodline. Pirates of the Caribbean-style relentless undead from thousands of years if humanity's naval history, swamp/bog-dwellers, and lake haunters feeding off of sailors, the unluckily stranded, and stupid and/or drunk partiers. I used to use the Samedi for this in old games (desiccating powers), but its always felt like a missed opportunity publication-wise.
im thinkin about using a leshy vampire as a hunter the reckoning quarry
There's something to homebrew that's always a bit more tasty than vanilla material.
Congrats on the boyfriend, not sure if that was mentioned before but I think it's the first time we heard of that. Sorry about the grandma.
Question about the Iron Core power: if the vampire can become Impaired but still not convert superficial damage to aggravated, does that mean they just don't take any damage while Impaired? If so, this power would make them totally invincible as long as they can keep the power active.
When you said “Pattern Spiders” I thought you said “Patent” spiders. That that was funny.
are you ever gonna do a video on the crafts/unaffiliated mages and the essence extremist mages (marauders, threat null, nephandi)
I'm deeply hurt to finish the Leshy part and not hear a single mention of my favorite tree vampires: Lhiannan. You think the Ministry are a blood cult? At least they don't have a discipline ENTIRELY dependant of human sacrifices. Playing one of those in DA is wild, i tell ya
Salubri are a clan. Was in the ancient times, is now just the SIZE of a bloodline.
Love the content Burger!
... Shit, how would you GET the Salubri included in your idea of Lore in BurgerWoD?
Damn it Burger, the city is pronounced New "Or-Lense" the Parish is "Or-leans" the street in the city is "Or-leans" but God damnit on my momma the city is pronounced Or-lense.
Keep up the superb work.
His hair gets longer and flowier by the upload!
YES!!! THIS IS HPW WOD WAS INTENDED!!! FUCKTHESHITTYWRITTENLORE!!!
57:23 Malkavian T.O.T.V sound like it would be so much fun :D
Of course you put on Witcher music while explaining the Leshy lore lol
Aranae my beloved.
no love for the Jiangshi? Pity
But Burger, the Salubri are in the clans video. Every time you mention the Tremere... 😉😁
I have a homebrew Bloodline, the Vaerminus who are infused with an insect swarm during their Embrace which eats them from the inside out and becomes one with them. (Inspired by the daughters Dimitrescu). Anyway, I can absolutely Arrange vampires mistaking a Spider Vaerminus as one of their own, for some amusing hijinks.
Fantastic thank you
