The Church of Caine
The Church of Caine is a quite new faction that only emerged in the Sword of Caine in the last decade. It emerged out of the Sabbat Inquisition and is closely allied with that faction, though it asserts its independence from the Purifiers, their founder, the Priscus Arnaud de Montpellier describing the difference in the following quote made to the Consistory at the Ecumenical Council of 2001.
“The Inquisition serves a necessary function within the Sword of Caine by cleaning up the corruption and the filth that infests our sect, and they do it well. But the methods they must employ to perform their duty unfortunately cause them to be rather universally reviled, thus preventing them from ever truly solving the problem at its core. I believe a sister organization working alongside our noble brothers of the Inquisition, one dedicated to safeguarding the Cainite Soul and encouraging devotion to our Holy Father Caine, can stem the flood of corruption and truly make us worthy of Father Caine’s return.”
The Consistory denied de Montpellier’s appeal for official sect recognition in 2001 and again in 2005 and 2010 despite the personal support from the Grand Inquisitor Vincent Pryce. The reason given each time was a lack of membership to truly count as a formal faction and thus gain a seat on the Consistory and earn Positional Status for its members. It is rumoured that de Montpellier plans to resubmit his request again at the next Ecumenical Council of 2014, showing greater numbers than ever and several permanent strongholds.
As it currently stands, the Church of Caine is not officially recognized as a faction and thus earns no Positional Status, nor does it bar its members from allegiance to another faction. Indeed, in order to maintain their current standing, most current members of the Church of Caine still claim membership in their original faction, though thus far only the Inquisition, the Ultra-Conservatives, and the Order of St. Blaise have come out in open support of the fledgling faction. Those vocally opposed to the establishment of the new faction at this point are the Black Hand, the Loyalists, the Pander Movement, and the Status Quo.
History
The problem of the Inquisition making itself too hated to truly prevent the rise of heresy by any means other than intimidation is one that has been a recognized problem within the sect since it was officially reformed under Grand Inquisitor Julian d’Avignon. Since then there have been multiple attempts to establish a softer branch of the Inquisition meant to work toward prevention rather than punishment, but none were successful. With each new attempt the problem was the same, namely that the Inquisition was simply too universally feared and reviled for most Sabbat to wish to deal with any part of them on a regular basis.
In 1983, High Inquisitor Arnaud de Montpellier, a Toreador Antitribu and former Theologian began another such attempt, focusing on the theology of Caine. He originally sought the support of the new Grand Inquisitor Vincent Pryce to establish a new branch of the Inquisition which he dubbed The Missionaries with the stated goal of saving the collective souls of the Sword of Caine, leading them away from heresy and damnation and thus serving to stop corruption at its source rather than dealing with the symptoms of Infernalism and other heresies. The initiative gained the support of the Grand Inquisitor, though he warned de Montpellier that such an initiative was unlikely to succeed. Nevertheless, the fervent Toreador set out on his course, determined to succeed where others had failed.
Over the next 10 years de Montpellier gathered a small number of supporters, mostly from among the Theologians and Judges and with his small circle wrote what would become the subsect’s holy text. He wove together all of the known passages from the Book of Nod and annotated the collection with his own insights and prophecies gathered from the most trusted seers of the Sabbat. Naming the book E Nomine Caine, he presented it in petition to the Consistory at the Ecumenical Council of 1993, but met with less than a favourable response. He was told in no uncertain terms that such a text was only a hair’s breadth away from heresy without the full support of the Consistory and the confirmation of the Regent and that even with the full support of the Grand Inquisitor, he was not to spread this volume or risk being declared a heretic himself. The Black Hand in particular seemed overtly offended at the very idea of this book and then First Seraph Izhim made a personal petition to have all copies of the book burned and their writer formally excommunicated and executed by Diablerie. Only the personal appeal of the Grand Inquisitor saved de Montpellier’s life that night, arguing that the Inquisitor had meant no harm and the book was nothing but idle fancies that of course would not be spread without the endorsement of the Consistory.
Retreating to the Grand Cathedral of the Inquisition in Cádiz, de Montpellier was shocked at the outcry against his vision and his work. Grand Inquisitor Pryce made it clear that although he supported the idea of the Missionaries, it was clear that E Nomine Caine took things too far and the Consistory would not stand for it. De Montpellier gathered his cabal of would-be Missionaries to him in Cádiz where they spent the remainder of the year in prayer and discussion of their future. Eventually it was decided that they would need to bury the book for now and establish the Missionaries as a simple branch of the Inquisition with nothing controversial attached.
And so the sub-faction progressed. The Missionaries were never large in number, but they did some good for the sect. It was not what de Montpellier wanted but he was biding his time, perfecting his arguments until an opportunity would present itself. E Nomine Caine would be read by all one night. He knew it. He just had to wait.
His chance came in 1999 when visiting Montreal and seeking the council of the new Archbishop and Inquisition founder Alfred Benezri. The news came to Montreal of the great upheaval in the war for New York and the thing that rose from the sewers, striking the fear of Caine into Camarilla and Sabbat alike. Coupled with the attack by these Cathayans on the West Coast, the rise and subsequent destruction of the Ravnos Antediluvian in Bangladesh, and the Arrival of the Harbingers of Skulls coming from nowhere to join the Sabbat, this time of upheaval needed those who would guard the souls of Caine’s army more than ever. De Montpellier had not been idle these last 6 years either. He had spent them in detailed study of the Consistory and their politics to ensure that the next time he made a petition, he would not approach in vain. With the advice of Benezri, an old expert at Sabbat politics, he spent the next 2 years formulating the perfect petition and finally by the Council of 2001 he was ready once again.
This petition was different than before. He set his sights higher than simply a sub-faction of the Inquisition. Benezri had advised him that the only way he would truly have the power to see his great work published to the masses was to gain a seat on the Consistory itself. De Montpellier had dedicated his Unlife to the Inquisition, holding no real political clout anywhere else, so the odds of attaining a Cardinal’s seat or a position as a Priscus anytime soon was extremely unlikely. That left only one option. He would strike out on his own, establishing the Church of Caine with the purpose of cataloguing and maintaining the sacred religion of the Sabbat. Established as a new faction, he would earn his place on the Consistory, and from there E Nomine Caine could finally be distributed openly.
The preparation and work did not go amiss, and the strong recommendations in support of his petition from Cardinal Strathcona from whom Benezri called in an old favour, and the Grand Inquisitor went a long way to gaining De Montpellier the support he needed. The disappearance of the former First Seraph Izhim and 2 of the other Seraphs of the Black Hand also worked well in his favour as the only remaining Seraph Jalan Aajav did not raise a single objection, only watching him with cold eyes.
The proposal went to a full debate after the Ecumenical Council had closed its session, but was ultimately denied, though not for any reason of objection to its purpose. When de Montpellier was summoned back to receive his answer he was told that he was free to establish this faction, as all Sabbat were free. However the faction was not yet established to a sufficient size that representation on the Consistory or official endorsement from the Regent would be appropriate. He was told that should he gather enough followers to his cause to show that this Church of Caine truly represented a significant portion of the Sabbat, that he should then reapply and his petition would be granted.
The response also included a reminder from the Regent herself that E Nomine Caine was not to become part of the doctrine of this new faction, nor was it to be spread without endorsement, lest it become a heresy. He wasn’t sure, but de Montpellier could swear he saw a smile cross Jalan Aajav’s lips at this pronouncement.
De Montpellier wasted no time. He repaid his favor to Benezri while at the same time using the propaganda of choosing the city whose souls were most in need of saving and established the first church of his new faction within Montreal. From there he summoned all those who had originally flocked to his banner when he was establishing the Missionaries, granted them each the new title of Pontiff and dubbed himself to be the Vicar of Caine. He then taught to his Pontiffs a new ritus that would become the most important rite to the Church of Caine, the Baptism of Blood. This ritus purportedly came to him in a vision from the Dark Father himself and was to be used on all members of the new Church, for only by the blood of the pure could the sins of the blood be washed away and a new path begun. He then charged them with the holy duty to go forth and spread the word of the Church of Caine.
Their mission thus far has been nominally successful, though not with the speed that de Montpellier had once dreamed of. The Consistory gave him no firm number he had to reach, and yet each subsequent time he has petitioned them in 2005 and again in 2010 he has been denied for the same reason. His membership is simply too small. De Montpellier is beginning to wonder if this is merely a stalling tactic by the Consistory to occupy him and keep him too busy to cause any real trouble. But his faith is unmoved and his stubbornness will not allow him to quit. He plans to address the Consistory once more in 2014 and the Church is doing everything it can in these next few months to gain additional members.
Organization and Hierarchy
At present time, the Church of Caine claims approximately 500 members worldwide, a full 200 gathered in the last 3 years alone. With so many new devotees, de Montpellier is certain that this year his request must be granted.
The Church has a tripartite structure underneath a traditional upper leadership model. The specifics are detailed below:
Vicar of Caine
At the top is de Montpellier himself with the title of Vicar of Caine. His voice is absolute and the most devout of his followers believe him to speak for the Great Father Caine himself. The Church is very careful never to say this where outsiders can hear, as that could very well be seen as a threat to the Sabbat’s Regency. Nevertheless, within the Church his word is absolute. He is the source of the Divine Word and when he speaks Ex Cathedra carries the weight of scripture.
Pontiff
There are 12 Pontiffs making up the highest echelons of the Church. These 12 are the original Inquisitors who came to de Montpellier’s cause when he was establishing the Missionaries. Together with de Montpellier they make up the Collegia, who set the policy for the entire church. The number of Pontiffs, including the Vicar, must always equal 13 and if one of them should meet his final death it falls to the Vicar alone to name a replacement. 13 is a sacred number as it represents 13 loyal servants of Caine to match the 13 disobedient children who shall fall to the Dark Father’s judgment. The Pontiffs receive the Divine Word and in the absence of the Vicar may speak as scripture.
Below the Collegia the tripartite structure becomes more evident. There are 3 paths of the Church, each dedicated to the memory of one of the 3 loyal children of Caine treacherously betrayed and slain by their own children. These are the Path of Dedication for Irad, the Path of Grace for Zillah, and the Path of Insight for Enoch. Each of the Paths is headed by an Ephor who oversees all matters of the Church in relation to their Path. No one path supersedes any other and the Ephors are appointed by vote of the Collegia. Each member of the Church of Caine, when they are ready, goes through a ceremony where they choose their path.
Each Path also contains several Orders. These are not officially controlled at all but have risen naturally as like-minded adherents have found each other. Those Orders listed are not the only ones, but they are the most numerous and the best known.
The Path of Dedication
Those who choose the Path of Dedication follow the ideals of the Strength of Irad. As the Church of Caine is not a martial organization, this has come to mean metaphorical and internal strength as well as strength of faith rather than overt displays of physical prowess. Those of the Path of Dedication are often incredibly devout to the point of fanaticism, although they are the most diverse in how they express this faith. The Path of Dedication teaches that there is not one way to please Caine, but that whatever one’s calling, the adherent should pursue it utterly without distraction or faltering. They value intense dedication to a single purpose above all else. Creativity and diverging ideas are frowned upon as they distract from one’s chosen calling. What unifies all adherents to this path is finding Caine through seeking some form of perfection.
The Path of Dedication claims several orders of note. The Order of Virtue dedicates themselves to the understanding and mastery of the Paths of Enlightenment. dedicates themselves to the ideals of the vampiric state and seek to become the perfect vampire. The Order of the Pinnacle see vampires as gods among men and seek true divinity by absolute mastery of body, mind and skill.
The Path of Grace
Those who choose the Path of Grace follow the ideals of the Beauty of Zillah. Again, this is not literal Beauty for who could limit one such as Zillah to a mere physical trait? The Beauty of Zillah is manifest for the adherents of this path in the ideals of the social arts and drawing others to them. Those of the Path of Grace are perhaps the most visible members of the Church of Caine. They are active in the community of the Sabbat and seen to be so. The Path of Grace teaches that only through the eyes of those around you can you truly come to see yourself. The defining characteristic of the Path of Grace is an overwhelming care for the opinions of those around you. Adherents to this path make up most of the Church’s visible programs among the Sabbat and are also those most likely to hold position and influence outside of the Church.
The noteworthy Orders of the Path of Grace are as follows. The Order of Zeal are absolute fanatics to the Church of Caine and need others to see the rightness of the Church. They are the perhaps the truest products of the original Missionary ideals the Church was founded upon, seeking to recruit as many new novices as will listen to them. The Order of the Black Ladder are masters of the art of politics, dedicated to wielding as much temporal power as possible. They seek to have control and domination over others and believe that only through such skill will the Jyhad finally be won. The adherents to the Order of the Mirror are perhaps the purest form of this path, seeking simply to be loved. They count success and perfection by the number of allies and friends they can acquire, knowing that all must band together as one on the night of Gehenna. The Order of the Soul are the most avid toward the visible purpose of the Church, measuring success by helping those whose faith might falter and saving Cainite souls.
The Path of Insight
Those who choose the Path of Insight revere the ideal of Enoch’s Wisdom. They believe the path to Caine can be best gained through knowledge, understanding, and creative endeavors. This is interpreted in as many different ways as there are things to study. The unifying principle of this Path is the drive for understanding. Adherents to the Path of Insight are often careful planners, often seeking a secluded existence the better to pursue their own areas of study.
The noteworthy Orders of the Path of Insight are as follows. The Order of the Eye is a gathering for Seers of all kinds, from Malkavian prophets, to Oracles, to Blood Magician diviners. They seek to understand the grand design of the world through their arts. The Order of Ink are the master scholars and record keepers, seeking to preserve all knowledge in the world within their libraries. The Order of Whispers are the social branch of the Path of Insight, a society of spies dedicated to keeping the Church furnished with accurate information from a myriad of sources. The Order of Potential is dedicated to the understanding of the vampiric condition, in particular the arts of the blood. Their stated purpose is to catalogue all known powers of the blood and measure achievements by the number of new abilities they can create, whether discipline techniques or new paths and rituals of blood magic. The Order of Orthodoxy are the keepers of canon law. They are avid Noddists and see the proper path to Cainite existence as being found in the teachings of the Book of Nod.
Despite the divergent paths, the actual positions and ranks within the Church follow a more linear structure. The Ranks are the same in any Path and hold equivalent position whatever their chosen calling.
Ephor
The appointed leader and guide of one of the Paths of the Church. The Ephor is less a true leader and seen more as a guide. He is responsible for the spiritual growth of all those who have chosen his Path. The Ephors manage both the spiritual well-being of those who follow their Path and carry ultimate responsibility for arranging the practical needs of their adherents. They ensure that all of the offerings of their adherents are properly distributed. The Ephors are answerable only to the Collegia and to the Vicar of Caine in how they conduct themselves.
Eparch
An Eparch is in ultimate charge of practical affairs for a large geographic region (usually a European or South American country, a Canadian province, or a collection of states in America). They have less to do with the faith of the church. They maintain responsibility and authority over all secular dealings and manage the night to night needs of the Church as an organization and faction. Eparchs are appointed by vote of the Collegia. Eparchs are responsible for collecting tithes and organizing their region, putting their allocated and collected resources to good use for the benefit of the Church.
Exarch
The counterpart to an Eparch, the Exarch is ultimately responsible for the spiritual well-being of a large region. Most regions will have a paired Eparch and Exarch who administer both sides of the Church together, each in their own way. The Exarch is the ultimate authority of all questions of faith or doctrine within their region, their decisions only questionable by a Pontiff or the Vicar of Caine himself. Exarchs are appointed by vote of the Collegia. Exarchs receive the Divine Word from the Collegia and in the absence of a Pontiff may speak as scripture.
Archdeacon
Serving under the Eparch, an Archdeacon is responsible for the practical affairs of the Church over a single Sabbat Diocese. They must maintain and run a church, provide a place for services, arrange travel if needed, and see to all of the mundane matters that the Church requires. They rarely do all of this themselves of course, usually appointing several Deacons to assist them. The Archdeacon is also usually the public face of the Church in a given region. Much as the Eparch commands his region, within the Diocese, the Archdeacon has final say on any secular matters in which the Church is involved. Archdeacons are appointed by their Eparchs.
Prelate
Just as the Archdeacon serves under the Eparch, so does the Prelate serve under his Exarch in the same manner. He is the arbiter and spiritual guide for all matters of doctrine and faith within the Diocese. He is responsible for overseeing Ritae, taking confession, and helping new acolytes to find their Path. Much as the Archdeacon will appoint Deacons under him to assist, the Prelate will appoint Curates. His word is only countermanded by the Exarch or higher. Prelates receive the Divine Word from their Exarch and in the absence of the Exarch may speak as scripture.
Deacon
Deacons are appointed by the Archdeacon for any number of specific tasks. There is no set number of Deacons. Each Diocese must evaluate its own needs and the Archdeacon has discretion to elevate as many as are required. The duties that might require a Deacon to be appointed could range from maintaining the Church, to managing the books, to overseeing the travel arrangements of pilgrims. Deacons speak with the voice and authority of the Archdeacon unless directly contradicted.
Curate
Curates, once they have passed their studies and been fully confirmed and ordained are officially appointed by a Prelate. Unlike Deacons they are not usually given specific tasks. The Curates are responsible in general for the Spiritual well-being of all those in the Diocese. This could take the form of giving sermons, taking confession, explaining doctrine, teaching Acolytes, or even simple counseling. Curates carry the Divine Word from their Prelate and in the absence of their Prelate may speak as scripture.
Acolyte
A full member of the Church who has already chosen his Path and been accepted by the Ephor.
Postulate
A full member of the Church who has yet to find his calling and still seeks his Path.
Novice
A recent convert to the Church who is still being taught the ways, but has taken his vows and been through the Baptism of Blood.
Initiate
One who has not yet fully joined the Church but is learning the preliminary lessons before taking vows or undergoing the Baptism of Blood.
Holy Sites
Each of the great sites of the Church of Caine are strategically chosen based on location and appearance of legitimacy. Each of the holy sites has an important landmark Cathedral that has been appropriated by the Church of Caine to grant more of an appearance of legitimacy.
The first Cathedral of the Church of Caine was established in Montreal. While still an important site, the corruption of that city proved too much of a stain on the reputation of the would-be faction and de Montpellier was forced to declare an alternative location for their official headquarters. Despite it no longer being their official headquarters, Montreal remains an important location for the Church, given the Archbishopric of Alfred Benezri and his unflinching support for the movement. In Montreal they have taken over the Basilica de Notre-Dame in the Place d’Armes square. It is still from here where the Church directs most of its Canadian operations.
The official headquarters of the Church of Caine was established in 2002 in Galicia, Spain. De Montpellier took the advice of Grand Inquisitor Pryce that the older and more conservative elements of the Sabbat would look more favourably on a faction based in Europe than one in America. Through Inquisition connections, most notably High Inquisitor Darius, the Church of Caine has taken the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in the main square of the Praza do Obradoiro. It is from here that the Church directs most of its European operations and it is here where the Collegia meets.
Seeking a modern touch as well as a center of operations in South America, the Church of Caine has established a strong base of operations in Brasilia, Brazil in 2005, taking the very modern Catedral Metropolitana Nossa Senhora Aparecida (Metropolitan Cathedral of Our Lady of Graces) in the capitol city. It is from here that the Church directs most of its South and Central American operations.
The most recent stronghold for the Church of Caine was established in 2008 in Washington D.C. where de Montpellier was quite surprised to find a sympathetic ear in Archbishop Vykos. The Archbishop supported the new faction, welcoming them with open arms and granting them domain over the Great Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. It is from here that the Church directs most of its United States operations.
The Church is notably still looking for a holy site on the West Coast of America.
Holy Rites
The Church of Caine has several unique ritae that have been developed over the last few years that it uses to better carry out its function of protecting the Cainite Soul. In addition to the unique Ritae, the faction pays particular heed to the Sermons of Caine, the Vaulderie, and The Blood Feast.
Baptism of Blood
This Ritus is taught to all those of the Church of Caine who take on the position of a Curate or higher along the spiritual route. The subject must first fast for 3 full nights before the ritus is performed. The subject is led into the ritual chamber naked to signify rebirth, then is placed into a copper bathing vessel. The vessel is then slowly filled with human blood while the Priest offers prayers to Caine that as this sinner was born of mortal blood so shall he be born again. The subject then cuts his own throat with a silver knife in the same place that his sire embraced him, allowing every drop of his own blood to drain into the vessel while the priest prays for forgiveness on his behalf for the sins he has committed, profaning the sacred blood that was granted to him. Finally the Priest takes the same knife and slashes his own wrist, spilling 5 full points of his own blood into the vessel as well, while praying that Caine accept his sacrifice to purify the sinner’s blood. As the subject then enters a Blood Frenzy on the contents of the vessel, the Priest offers praise to Caine that he instilled his children with the instinctual desire for salvation and pronounces the subject cleansed of all his past sins and transgressions.
The effect on the subject carries the same effects as a Vaulderie with the Priest who performed the Ritus. In addition, if the subject already walks the Path of Caine, he may automatically gain an additional level of either Path Rating or Conviction without spending experience points. Should the subject not walk the Path of Caine but be at Path Rating 3 or lower on his current Path of Enlightenment, he may immediately undergo full Catharsis and convert to the Path of Caine with a Path Rating of 3 with no Catharsis roll required. There is no additional effect for those who do not currently walk the Path of Caine nor seek to do so. Each subject may only benefit from this Ritus once.
Communion of Caine
This bastardization of the Holy Communion involves petitioners lining up to accept the holiness of Caine into themselves. The Priest offers a prayer to Caine to bless his children with his sacred blood and keep them from sin. He speaks of the blessings of the blood and how Caine has granted his children this bounty in lieu of bread, ritually taking a handful of traditional communion wafers and scattering them on the floor before the supplicants who proceed to stamp them into powder. The Priest then prays that by the blood of Caine, all his children shall be saved and pours his own blood into a sacred chalice, going down the line of supplicants and asking each to drink of the blood of Caine and accept this holy sacrament.
This ritus is extremely controversial for those who see it from the outside. After all it appears as though the Priest is simply blood-binding his congregation. However, this rite does not invoke a true blood bond as anyone who has been through the rite can affirm. The priests claim that by the blessed sacrament of transubstantiation, the blood of the priest is transformed into the sacred blood of Caine himself. No one is entirely sure what is happening to this blood, but it has been confirmed by Inquisition inspectors that there are no true blood bonds being created by this rite, and as such it is not heresy.
After partaking of the Communion of Caine, for the next week, all Degeneration rolls are made at -1 Difficulty.
E Nomine Caine
Although officially forbidden from disseminating this book, de Montpellier has secretly continued to do so among the faithful of his Church. Gaining access to this document is full justification to by the Noddism specialty of Occult. This is a detailed compilation of all formally acknowledged fragments of the Book of Nod as used by the Sabbat, as well as many passages of Apocrypha.
Most notable in the Apocrypha is the declaration establishing a Sainthood of Cainites who most exemplified the ideals of Caine himself. Those elevated to this sainthood include Lugoj Bond-Breaker, Gratiano de Veronese, Lambach Ruthven, Julian d’Avignon, Joseph Pander, and Sascha Vykos, officially certifying its self-proclaimed title of Caine’s Angel. This is one of the most controversial pieces of the book, as it places certain members of the Sabbat in the appearance of positions that outstrip that of the Regent and the Consistory, elevating them to a position of holiness. De Montpellier continues to claim that these individual’s names were given him in sacred vision by Caine himself and they deserve the reverence his followers will show them. There have been allegations made that the inclusion of Joseph Pander and Sascha Vykos are a clear example of nepotism in an attempt to gain support on the Consistory, though these have been flatly denied by de Montpellier.
