The Night Doctors
Secretive even by Kindred standards, the Night Doctors began as a small Michigan faction but have spread erratically through the United States and beyond. Much as the Ku Klux Klan, when operating before others the Night Doctors conceal their identities, wearing full surgical gear with masks and referring to each other by the title “doctor” and an initial.
Position: Understanding the physiology of the Kindred is the key to alleviating the burdens of the condition without recourse to other occult energies, which inevitably come with their own complications.

Public Agenda
Meeting in hospitals and med school classrooms, referring to one another by monikers such as “Dr. F” and “Dr. N,” the Night Doctors contain a high percentage of actual MDs. Other members are Embraced nurses, physical therapists and biologists. A meaningful percentage of Night Doctors had no medical training as mortals, but commenced studies during their Requiem.
Mission: Unlock the secrets of Kindred biology (which some Night Doctor cells refer to as “thanatology” or even “demi-thanatology” to differentiate between studies on the living) through experiments with Vitae, Kindred, ghouls and, occasionally, mortals as well. Some Night Doctor coteries maintain mortal medical ethics, which forbid experimentation without informed consent from the test subject. For most coteries, however, the value of the knowledge outweighs the importance of one Requiem. Particularly if it’s the Requiem of someone from a rival covenant.
