Powerful blood
[M] Tzimisce <3> (:~ -8000) Progeny of Ynosh. Sire of Kartarirya , Gallod , Andeleon , Byelobog , Yorak , Dracon and Demdemeh. Maybe Tzimisce is the one named Mekhet.
According to CbR-Tz, always "possessed a fluid nature and controlled flesh like living clay". Tzimisce cursed Nosferatu with a hideous countenance, not Caine. He also gave Toreador her legendary beauty. He ordered for Kupala to be released from the Carpathians. It is said that Samiel "killed" him but that the Antediluvian survived by re-emerging in the blood he had planted in Dracon, and back into the world as an embryo that was later put into the care of Yorak.
He faked his diablerie by Lugoj during the Anarch Revolt in 1413 and went to torpor. He Tzimisce is not in torpor and is manipulating the Sabbat from New York, guarded by the ghoul family of the Zantosa. [CotI,p44] [NoP] [CbR-Tz]
[-] Kartarirya <4> Progeny of Tzimisce. Sire of Ratti-Ben. First childe. Multi-armed Methuselah, considers all of India to be it's personal stalking grounds. Fought a Nosferatu Methuselah and now dwells in its domicile on the isle of Sri Lanka.
Might be a Kuei-jin Bodhisattva instead of Tzimisce. [Cb-Tz] [CbR-Tz]
[M] Gallod <4> (+ ) Progeny of Tzimisce. Second childe. A tribal chieftain sent by Tzimisce to monitor events in the city of Enoch. In a curse caused by Tzimisce when he frenzied from Hunger, Gallod was consumed inside out from a distance. [CbR-Tz]
[M] Andeleon <4> (+ ) Progeny of Tzimisce. Also named Andeleun. He was member of True Hand. Quite adept at explorations of the Deep Umbra. In 489BC, his last expedition ended with a frenzy after a bit from a strange creature of the Deep Umbra. It was then that Vicissitude first passed into the blood of a vampire, for Andeleon swallowed some of the spirit's vile ichor. He had spread the disease among the Tzimisce, leading some to claim that even their torporous Antediluvian was not safe from infection. Only a select group of elders managed to hide away in their castles, safe from their fellow clan members. Killed by some members of True Hand, the Shadow Crusaders. [DSBH]

CbR-Tz says that Tzimisce is protecting Lambach, and ensuring he is the last one to fall, so the vampire can survive to record the Antediluvian's history.
