Strong men in black riot gear and helmets bearing transparent shields and submachine guns.

Storytelling Hints

Unwavering loyal to Cesare through viniculum and blood addiction. They will do anything he asks, convinced that they are battling monsters who threaten the world because of their intense conditioning through Dominate. Each has a manufactured memory of a horrible incident that "convinced" them to join the crusade. None is aware their chief is a vampire or remember feeding from him.
