The former king, Enoch, desired Caine's power once more and requested it as such. Caine was so heartbroken over the event that he forbade anyone to speak their names. In an act of despair, they both walked into the sunlight to their Final Death. However, after having been Embraced, the lovers discovered that they could not have children together. After having dwelt on his sin for an eon, Caine thought that maybe he could reconcile something in his nature by Embracing them with the gift of immortality, so that their love would live for all eternity. Seeing their love amplified his own loneliness and sin. Īccording to a Toreador legend, being amongst the mortals, Caine noticed a couple who were very much in love. Upon arrival to the city, Enoch relinquished his kingship, so that Caine may rule instead. The people of Ubar were aware of Caine's mark and both marveled and feared his power and thus came to worship him. It was inhabited by the "Children of Seth" and ruled by King Enoch. It was here, in this First City that he became the Dark Father.Ĭaine finally settled in a city, once known as Ubar. Finally, Caine settled in a small agricultural community, named Ubar. His powers and his mark were well known to mortal men and some even worshiped him. It was not for many ages until he decides to be amongst mortal men again. The memory of his sin drowned him in sorrow. Ĭaine continues to wander the Land of Nod in loneliness. And with all these powers, he breaks his bond with Lilith and leaves her. Caine then became aware of the Path of Blood, the Final Path from which all paths stem. After the experience, Caine becomes officially "Awakened", possessing the following Disciplines: Celerity, Potence, Fortitude, Obfuscate, Dominate, Presence, Protean, Animalism, and Auspex. A fourth angel, Gabriel, then appeared to offer the way of Golconda, the only way to "light", by the mercy of God. Uriel then cursed Caine and his childer to cling to Darkness, drink only blood, eat only ashes, and be frozen at the point of death, cursed so all they touch would crumble into nothing. Raphael cursed Caine and his childer to fear the dawn, as the sun's rays would burn like fire. Michael, when denied, cursed Caine and his childer to fear his living flame. Each angel offers Caine a chance to repent for the murder of Abel, but Caine rebuffed them out of pride.
Īfter Caine partakes of Lilith's blood, he is visited by three angels who are agents of God. The hesitant Lilith then prepares an Awakening ceremony by cutting herself with a knife, bleeding into a bowl, and giving it to him so that he may drink. He realizes that she has powers and magic that he too would like to possess, so he pleads her for these gifts. After staying with her for some time, the two become lovers. Lilith identifies herself as Adam's first wife, the original wife of Caine's father. Seeing that he is cold and hungry, she welcomes Caine into her warmth. She was amazed, for he bore no signs of godhood but wandered in the dust like a lesser beast. He possessed the power to kill higher beings - not to hunt as Adam had, but to kill as had Jehovah. She notices a swirling stain in the air around him, a mark of some dark unfathomed power: murder. Roaming the Land of Nod, Caine encounters Lilith. As punishment, Cain's "Father" cursed him with a mark, and cast him out to wander in darkness in the Land of Nod. The final result ended in Caine "sacrificing" Abel on an altar, his brother being the "finest" offering he could give. Either there was a dispute over whose offering was better, or God really favored Abel's over Caine's.
His brother Abel also prepared a sacrificial offering, it being of the finest animals that he had raised. The Gangrel scholar Beckett is also known for interpreting the Caine mythology as a conflict between farmer and hunter tribes.Ī farmer named Caine prepared a sacrificial offering to God, of his finest fruits and vegetables. He used this gift to make pride out of shame, which resulted in being outcast. Using this gift, he thought he killed Abel in an act of love when it was really an act of hate. The Luciferian describes how Caine gave himself a "gift," and the gift was delusion. These books conflict on Caine's motives, but all agree he killed his brother Abel. The bulk of Caine's history is covered in the Book of Nod, the Erciyes Fragments, the Lilithian, and the Luciferian.
