Using Presence powers is not a Masquerade Violation. For an extended period, these hangers-on will follow wherever the object of their adulation may go, distracting nearby enemies along the way.
Toreador relish in their ability to turn a crowd into an audience, distraction into rapt attention, and aggression into adoration, by just entering the room. The Divas know this, and the shrewd among them manage to turn it to their advantage. Among it all, new ideas and trends constantly wash through the Clan, and other Kindred often look to the Toreador to guide them. Others fight grimly to retain the shreds of their humanity, whether by immersing or withdrawing themselves from the mortal world. Ever seeking the next surprise, the next experience, the next chance to feel, some Toreador descend into depravity. All of them are cursed to spend eternity between the short-lived bliss of true beauty… And the ever-increasing spans of ennui in between. There are true visionaries among the Clan of the Rose, but it also contains its share of one-hit wonders and posers embraced in a moment of fleeting passion. Obsessed with beauty in all forms, there are those Toreador who would claim that their Clan only chooses the most accomplished artists of each generation – whether they wielded the brush, the pen, their voice, body or mind.
No, they are a rabble in the dirt compared to the beauty and grace of a Toreador. Not scuttling vermin in the sewers, but not high-class people either. These factions of the vampire world lick their lips in the darkest depths of the world of VTM: Bloodlines 2.
