In lightless depths were we spawned. In lightless depths do we drink the gift. Come into the deep and enter the ages-old realm of the Mara.
The Mara are the drowned Kindred, the witch-kin of a Goddess both tragic and merciless. The true origins of these dark, deeply faithful vampires is hard to discern. It seems that their litany is a mish-mash of ancient Greco-Roman, Celtic and Germanic myths, and it's almost impossible to determine whether those elements precede the more accessible legends or if they're drawn from them. In most territories of the world, the Mara prefer to be left alone and are suspicious of the land-dwelling vampires, believing them to be either enemies of the Sunken Mother or have forgotten their loyalties to her.
