Book Reviews of Vampire Daeva Kiss of the Succubus (Vampire the Requiem)

Book Review: Incredible Read
Summary: 5 Stars

I'm starting to think that a lot of people have misconceptions of what the clan books are all about. They aren't rule books, they are a collection of writings and short stories that are all 'in character', even the index is written in character on this book.

As a source book the game fails. It only contains a few pages comparatively that actually pertains to game play. From rules to bloodlines to new disciplines and devotions. But these rules are just the icing on the cake. The appendix to the real valuable information.

This book is about the Daeva clan. Not in game rules. Not supplementary game play mechanics. But about the vampires of this clan. The writings in this book, the short stories, the collections of past history, are of the highest caliber of Pen & Paper 'fluff' as some would call it, I have ever seen.

What this book does is give an incredibly powerful and intimate view of the clans history, their current struggles and daily life. It's less a book the games ST would need for rules, and much more about how the Daeva 'live' and how they spend their nights. The information within can be invaluable to any player wishing to flesh out their Daeva character or getting some insight on the mood and feel of the Daeva clan.

Everyone knows, (or should know), that Mood and Theme are amongst the most important mechanics in any World of Darkness game. The Daeva 'clan book' exudes more Mood and sets such a dark and horrifying Theme I've ever seen in any World of Darkness book I own. The writing is simply amazing and can help you 'feel' your Daeva on a level you could never imagine.

When I first picked this up I had seen mixed reviews, and just simply after the first story, entitled Kevin, drew me into the world of the Daeva and wouldn't let me go. When I finally finished reading it, the sun was starting to rise. It set the mood for the entire book which lived up to that first story in an amazing way and gave me such an amazing insight into the Daeva that any characters of the Clan I make from now on will have a depth I simply couldn't have attained before buying and reading this 'clan book.'

So in the end, if your looking for a book of rules... of supliments, you won't find it here. However if your after finding an intimate, murderous, passionate and absolutely intense idea of the daily un-lives of the Daeva, their past and the over-arching Theme and Mood of the clan, you can find no better source than this book.
