Scourge
Scourge is a term used to describe a vampire directly subordinated to a Prince. He is one of the muscles that a given Prince may call upon to do his bidding.
Overview
As the nights grow more and more violent and the cities fill with unknown Kindred, some princes have resurrected this ancient position. Essentially, the Scourge patrols the borders of a princedom, seeking out and often destroying newcomers who have failed to present themselves to the Prince within a reasonable amount of time of arriving in a Domain. Caitiff, as well as fledglings of the 13th to the 15th generation, have much to fear from the Scourge. In some cases, even vampires who have followed protocol fall victim to the Scourge, as princes reflexively react to fears of overpopulation and espionage. The Scourges tend to be very unpopular and asocial Kindred. There isn't much possible room for promotion for a Scourge, but since they routinely destroy strange and secretive vampires, there is a chance that a Scourge scores a lucky kill on an Anathema and gets promoted to Alastor for that act.Appointment
