Clanbook: Tzimisce

Rating:
Summary: Tzimisce, anachronistic or just damn lazy your choice.
Review: This is by far one of the most excellent clan books that white wolf has written. It gives full detail as to the Tzimisce rising up and participating in the vaulderie for the first time, the destruction of their antedelluvian(even though he ain't gone)and the sadistic trappings of their homes and unlives. If you want to make a really fleshed out charachter with an interesting hobby/discipline then the tzimisce are perfect. The book also had some very interesting artwork. Even though some would call it revolting I found it pleasing that they didn't hold back from what the Tzimisce do, they're not kine or kindred but something darker and even more twisted than you can imagine.

Summary: Great Book, Bad Art
Review: This is by far one of the most interesting WW books i've ever read. The characters are great and what the tzimisce powers allow you to do is excellent when you flesh out a character. The only flaw that I saw was the artist was terrible. The drawings were nothing but monsters, while many of the Tzimisce listed were intended to be strikingly beautiful. Where the Tzimisce are artists of the flesh as Toreador are artists of canvas, they are unfortunately portrayed as monsters throught the series. THe only things it needed was a real artist :(

Summary: Definitely worth the money.
Review: Thus far I've read the Giovanni, Lasombra, Nosferatu, Setite and Tzimisce Clanbooks, I am eagerly anticipating the Baali book (if amazon ever sends the thing), and I think that this one has been the best yet. The only one that compares is MAYBE the Nosferatu. This thing is packed with useful info. Everything you wanted (or didn't want to know) about the Tzimisce is in here, from the szlachta (guardian ghouls) to thier living rooms and gardens of flesh to thier 20-foot monsters (vozhd). The thing that gets me is that the Tzimisce say they started the Sabbat, and the Lasombra say the Tzimisce started the Sabbat (sort of), but the Lasombra still think they run it! Herein are the truths to alot of rumors about just who the Sabbat answers to. Great reading for the whole family!

Summary: This clanbook is full of information . . .
Review: While being one of the shortest World of Darkness books at a whopping 68 pages (72 if you count the character sheet), this book gives you every bit of knowledge you ever need about the Tzimisce. They are not so much evil as they are ammoral. Rather than bloodthirsty savages like others, the Tzi are like scientitists studying how Vampires are far different from humans and maybe the next evolutionary step. The pictures and illustrations were rather lame, as if the entire Tzimisce clan were designed by Clive Barker. Truthfully however, it is pretty cheap too ($10?). For those Storytellers looking for great villians, or players looking to release steam and be evil for once. This book is cool.
