“True ferocity comes at a cost. Think about it—humanity is always a little more distant when your very skin is just a choice of adaptation. At that point, the only thing really holding you back is a lack of imagination.”

– Garrett Prosper, Gangrel philosopher

The ability to shapeshift or alter part of their forms comes almost as easily to some vampire as to a werewolf. The savage animal forms that a vampire can assume allow her to become a better predator. The ability to sink into the ground or disperse into a cloud of mist allows her to evade capture.
