Covenant

In the Malverse, western vampires organize themselves into organizations of varying sizes, which are termed covenants. Coexistence between these is possible, but rarely a given. In most cities, one would find a single dominant covenant with a number of smaller rivals and allies. The largest cities, however, often hold multiple powerful covenants with varying relations between them. And in some cases, even an ongoing covert war is not out of the question.

There are five major covenants, each elevated to this position by their global reach and large membership. These are:

- The Prima Invicta (sometimes shortened to Invictus)

- The Covenant of Thebes

- The Mother's Army

- The Commonwealth

- The Devil's Eye

Besides these, several smaller groups also exist. These tend to be either too disorganized to be considered a major covenant, or are too limited in reach to be counted amongst them. These are:

- The Circle of the Crone

- The Nemites

- The Holy Engineers

- The Society of Accord

- The Brethren of the Hundred Faces

- The Harbingers

- The Brood of Belial
