In Vampire: The Masquerade vampires create other vampires by draining all the victim's blood and providing a drop of the progenitor's vitae. Because of this, the childe shares many attributes of the sire. In Vampire: The Masquerade the childe of a vampire who belongs to a bloodline will always belong to the same bloodline as her sire, and there's no set way to change one's lineage. Bloodlines in Masquerade are generally the product of unique supernatural events, and are functionally just smaller clans.
