Cults of the Blood Gods is further expanded upon in this supplement: This book opens with new SPC Characters and one or two older ones. These work to provide flavour for any chronicle/story, but also tie-in with other entries, such as Trails of Ash and Bone.

Some Ready-Made Characters for anyone wanting to leap straight into the action.

New Cult-based Merits and Flaws, to better you or your adversaries for your involvement in cults featured in Cults of the Blood Gods.

Bloodlines, adding what appears to be the last (for now at least) of the more notable Hecata families.

And cult Loresheets, offering awesome new choices for the many kindred you’ll no doubt be making.

--

I was going to rate this book a 4, for the sole reason that I would have liked to have seen more, but for the price it's offered I think it's spot on. I still certainly wish we had more, but as it is, it's a fine addition. I’m now left wondering when and where we might see some names crop up in later entries (Forbidden Religions).

I’m giving Onyx Path Publishing a 5. A great start to the Supplements.

The book is a good supplement for GMs looking for ideas and players in the cult-making business. The book provides a rich set of new and old characters who can serve as good allies or antagonists for a campaign. The merits and flaws are generally only applicable if your character is in a cult. The same goes for the loresheets (Except the Hecata bloodlines) but, it is the book´s subject matter so, take it or leave it.

Another solid addition to the V5 game line. In particular really like that these Storyteller Player characters are focused on vampire religions and cults; the addition of new loresheets is always a seller for me as this book introduces some new bloodlines. Honestly, I think Matthew Dawkins and his writing team are really defining V5 in a creatively thematic direction. Beautifully illustrated and needs must be printed and added to my ever expanding 5th edition shelf.

Great V5 supplement adds in some returning characters and all new ones. New Merits and Lorsheets to expand on Cultsof the Blood Gods are all very well done. Owned it for two days and my players already have things they want to incorporate into our session

A very good companion for Cults of the Blood Gods. New inspiring SPC characters and Bloodlines. More V5 Lore is always welcome! Money well spent :)

A very strong entry to the 5th Edition VtM gameline, providing a wealth of vivid characters that can fit into any Chronicle, long-awaited expansions to the game's list of Merits and Flaws, new Loresheets to capture the imagination and represent groups introduced in the larger Cults of the Blood Gods, and both the Milliner and Rosselini Giovanni families as Hecata Bloodlines. With this book, Onyx Path fills out the world of VtM in the little places, almost every single character writeup containing a loving reference to the past or a celebration of the little things that make Vampire: the Masquerade so compelling. Not to mention at least half a dozen interesting plot hooks that will make you want to incorporate them into your games.

The loresheets are a mechanical highlight, perhaps the best yet released in the game line, showcasing the familiarity that Onyx Path's writers and developers have earned with the V5 ruleset. Beautiful art, droves of ideas and inspiration, very solid. Some of the Merits and Flaws feel slightly awkward, lacking the wide range or specific categories Merits from the corebook posess, but mechanically they work well, and indeed Onyx Path has simply met overwhelming fan demand for more Merits and Flaws to choose from. As somebody who helped fund this book through Kickstarter, I find my money and support well spent and freely given. I dearly hope to see more V5 products from Onyx Path Publishing in future!

Interesting book, for those who want to create plots for your players about mistery cults and dark faiths. I got curious about the Osebo mention and I wanto to read more about them and the other Legacies. I'm neutral about the art (but I think it's better tham much of first edition). My favorite thing about this book is that I can change any group's integrante to better fit my chronicles. Nothing here is dull or locked.

I was a backer on Kickstarter for Cults of the Blood Gods, which came with the Children of the Blood supplement. I've absolutely not been disappointed. The characters and Coteries in this book are very well written and fit into almost any city with little effort. They show a big range in how believers of these cults operate and the variety within them. The Loresheets at the end are sublime (by the high standard that OPP has set). We receive some more Hecata Bloodlines (the Milliners and Rosselini that I as an older fan was certainly missing) and some new cult sheets.

The art in this book is top quality as usual. I am always happy to use OPP's character art for my games and they make the books so visually appealing. The only reason I've given this a 4 instead of a 5 is because of the Merits and Flaws. I realise why they had to do it as people have kept clamouring for them, but I feel most of them are either reskins of existing ones, ones that set a dangeorus precedent (get +2 dice to things your concept is already good at) and ones that are so good you'd wonder why not every character is in a cult.

All in all I'm very happy with this supplement and would certainly recommend it to people looking to dive more into Kindred religion or who want more flavour for the Hecata.

Children of the Blood is a great resource, and exactly the sort of content that I enjoy. The range of characters on offer can be easily dropped into any story, and they're loaded with hooks, and plot elements that you can draw on and bounce off your players. It not only advances the setting and adds in great hints at what else lurks out there, but importanly shows how religion, faith and the cult structure works in universe. Not every adherent is fully dedicated, and each of them come at it from thier own angles - everyone has their own questions to answer and reason to do it. Overall, i love this book, and it works very well for me. On top of the top quality writing, the book looks amazing as well, and the art style is really evocative of the setup. Whether your an ST that wants to have some pre made story hooks, a player that wants to see some great examples of how cultists can be displayed, or just a person who loves the lore of VtM, this book is well worth picking up.

As one of the KickStarter backers, I was able to see the book in its first, pre-errata version. And I must say, that said version could get confusing at times, making me think that OPP is not telling us some vital information. But thankfully, said errors got fixed in the errata, and since the errata'ed version is the one you can buy, that's the thing I'll give a splendid reveiw.

The main selling point of Children of the Blood, are its NPCs [or SPCs as OPP likes to call them], and most people would probably took their money and walk away, since they are "just" NPCs, but I'd urge these people to reconsider, because CotB NPCs are one of the best written characters I've encountered through every V5 book. They greatly expand on various cults, various locations, and in general, they are just an amazing source for chronicle inspiration.

The other part of the book, describes various coteries, which aims to show, how different groups of vampires can band together under one banner to achieve different goals, which expands on the whole cult thing, introduced in Cults of the Blood Gods. That chapter also includes new coterie types, which give various useful merits, as well as gives Character Sheets, ready to be played, which can be really useful for quick Con-Game, or just as an introduction into the cults mysteries.

The next chapter, offers to the reader a variety of different Cult-dependant merits and flaws, which are all really fun, giving player who've chosen certain cult at character creation, an opportunity to express their role in the cult. There are also few Domain and Haven specific merits, which are really useful as a "little cult leader" tools.

This relativly short book ends on a very high note, giving us some really good Loresheets [something OPP really excels at], offering probably the most fun Hecata Bloodlines I've seen, some really good cults Loresheet, and a really great Malkavian-only one, which could be turned into one chilling chronicle, I'd be eager to play.

All in all, a fantastic book, with some really funny in-jokes about the lore, fantastic characters to introduce into your chronicles, and once again, a big-ass proof that OPP just knows what VTM is about, and for that, I can only thank them with this review.
