Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 - Toreador Clan Reveal
What would a game in the vampire universe be without clan diversity? It wouldn't be a true sequel without choice and the upcoming sequel Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 will offer a number of playable clans. As an alternative to the stupid Brujah comes the Toreador. Publisher Paradox Interactive now presents them in a new trailer for Bloodlines 2, which you can watch here.
The Toreador are one of the more formidable factions of vampire, who not only have a craving for blood but also the finer things in life, such as art and music. They are an educated clan that are both intelligent and creative. It's not surprising that only the most renowned artists are accepted into the order. Toreador influence everything, from politics to social and cultural matters, pulling the strings from behind the curtains. Players will be able to use a number of skills at their disposal if they choose the Toreador as their faction, including an ability that can freeze all those in your presence for a short time.
Toreador Skills
Presence
- Awe: the first active Presence power, allows the vampire to strike a pose that freezes all before them into adoring wonder. For a short while after, these new admirers will be oblivious to anything but what they just saw.
- Entrance: the second active power, forms a group of admirers around the vampire. For an extended period, these hangers-on will follow wherever the object of their adulation may go, distracting nearby enemies along the way.
Celerity
- Unseen Storm: the first active, allows the vampire to dash in any direction at such a speed as to confound their audience. They can land attacks, dodge around enemies, or get away in a lazy dust cloud. Characters struck along the way of the dash get knocked down.
- Accelerate: the second active, opens up speeds so fast that everything else in the world appears to slow down to a virtual standstill. The crowds seem frozen in their steps, as the vampire dances between cars and bullet streaks. A more gauche clan might wish for a popular 80’s synth track in the background.
