Council of Scrolls

A semi- Secret organization within the clan Assamite. The council Introduces and imagines new uses for technology by clan Assamite. Their duty is to keep up with and report on modern advances in the chosen field and report them back to Alamut. This information is shared frequently between members of the same "Seat." The Assamites have developed a wide range of specialized gadgets and combo disciplines from this research. However, the elders of clan Assasmite frown upon this information being spread throughout the entire clan without their proper vetting (which can take decades.) As a result, members of individual seats tend to be the only ones practicing and iterating upon new developments.

An Assamite can petition to join one of the Seats by demonstrating great work in the field or by fulfilling a request from an elder of the Seat. Hunting down the Elder in the secret society is considered part of the trial, as none of this information is stored publically. (Need to take Search for actions)

From Marduks Throat

This unassuming can is filled with a variety of tinctures and blood from the great blood well beneath Alamut. Each one is keyed to a different generation and the Assamite placing the order must specify when they receive their Can. An Assamite must gather blood from 10 different vampires of the same generation and then add them to the can. The Kindred that the blood came from must be alive when the blood is drained into the can. Upon drinking the completed can, the Assamite lowers one generation. Once used, the can is useless, but the Assamite can order another Can (though they must pay for it again.)

Taste of Ash

The Assamite gains a machine that produces a mixture of liquid gold and mercury. This mixture can be poured into ash and mixed into a slurry before being drunk, to ask one question as though the taste of blood was used on the Ashes. The Assamite gains one use of the mixture per month.

Spirit Head

The Assamite gains a Stone head that can be held up and offered to local spirits. The Spirit can possess the head and speak to the Assamite as though they were manifest. The Assamite can also summon a particular spirit with an occult check. ( Dif equal to spirits Rank)

Gyro-Jet rifle

This rifle fires large, half-inch-thick bullets with jet boosters in them. These guns were deemed impractical for the US Army, but the Assamites took the technology and have been making versions with wooden tips. The Gyrojet grants +4 traits and deals 3L. It can be used to stake with. However, rituals such as shafts of Belated Quiessence cannot be cast on the rounds as they are not large enough.(It's a staking Gun)

Purify the Flock

The Assamites tried everything to purify their blood from the curse of the Baali and later the Tremere. Though they never succeeded in doing so, their mastery of medicine became unequaled. This Poultice requires special reagents that can be ordered from Alamut, but overuse of it will cause the mountain to question the Aassamite's actions. The Poultice, once mixed, can remove any malady from a human or cure any blood plague from a kindred who drinks it. The seat of flesh tend to reserve its use for particularly important mortals.
