Lasombra
|
The Lasombra are a fictional clan of vampires, associated with the Sabbat, from White Wolf Game Studio's Vampire: The Masquerade books and role-playing games. The Lasombra are the Sabbat's degenerate counterpart to the Ventrue. The Lasombra have the ability to create and control shadows. Unlike most other vampires, the Lasombra do not cast reflections; they are also more susceptible to solar radiation.
The Lasombra clan discipline is Obtenebration, which allows them to manipulate shadows. Effects range from causing flittering shadows, forming a shadow cloak to withstand sunlight, creating a shadowy assasin called the Dark Hunter, or even temporarily blocking out the sun completely.
