Paradox Interactive has unveiled the Toreador clan from Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2.

The Toreador is also known as the Rose Clan because its members are big fans of art and beauty. The history of the clan is closely connected with Seattle - the Emerald City, as it is often called. Vampires participated in the formation of the city from the first days of its foundation, giving it a noble look. But with the advent of modernity, those obsessed with beauty increasingly feel pressure from other clans. Some wonder if the power of the Toreador is weakening in a city where there are fewer unusual buildings from the middle of the century, and high-rise buildings appear. Today, members of the clan can often be found in art galleries in downtown Seattle or in a Pioneer Square nightclub. In addition, they have long secured influential connections in the social, political and cultural spheres.

Newly converted vampires who join the Toreador will receive the discipline "Presence", with which you can turn any crowd into the most devoted listeners, attract attention and make you adore. Also, such Kindred have "Swiftness" - they can develop high speed. Read more about the Toreador disciplines below:
«Presence
- ″Awe″ - take a spectacular pose, at the sight of which everyone will freeze in front of you in admiring adoration. After a short time, the newly-minted fans will not remember anything that was right in front of their eyes.
- ″Charming″ - gather around you a group of admirers who will follow you everywhere and distract enemies.
Using this discipline in front of mortals does not break the Masquerade.
Swiftness
- ″Invisible Storm″ - Acceleration in any direction, allowing you to instantly disappear from the field of view of the enemy. So you can attack from behind, dodge enemy attacks or slip away before the dust settles. Subsequent upgrades increase the effect of Invisible Storm.
- ″Acceleration″ - allows you to move so fast that it seems as if the whole world freezes around. Enemies freeze without completing the attack, cars barely noticeably crawl forward, bullets fly too lazily, and the vampire himself can do incredible tricks to the background of synthesizer music of the eighties playing in the background, as if in some spectacular action movie. Subsequent upgrades increase the effect of the Haste ability.
Using this discipline in front of mortals is fraught with breaking the Masquerade."

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 will be available in the first quarter of 2020 on PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
