While taking place in the dark ages, the information on the Salubri is far better than what you'll find in any of the other Vampire books. Most of the information explains the attitudes of the Salubri towards their fellow (and rival) clans as well as exactly what goes into the background of one of these enigmatic vampires. Also, the clan's history and possible ties to the (literally) demonic Baali clan are presented as well. I found it to be a great source for even modern characters, as the attitude of defending and healing the weak hasn't really gone out of style. Now, if they'd only come out with a modern-day clanbook.

This is a great book.
It is very creative, and adds great depth to this misunderstood Bloodline.

My only gripe, and it's a big one, is that this book is only for Vampire: Dark Ages. While the concept is interesting, I think it would have been much more interesting to set the book in modern times so that we know what the Bloodline is up to as Gehenna approaches. Specifically, it would be great to know what the Salubri antitribu and the hidden Salubri Healers were doing.

Besides the setting, I highly recommend this book.

These are one of the most powerful clans in vampire the Masquerade. But they have been small in numbers for so long that you have to go back to the dark ages to be one. This book has a very good background story for the salubri. Lets you in a few sercrets never before heard of until this was released.

Something that explains the how and why behind the Childer of Saulot. Most interesting. The explination of the split of Valeren into the warrior aspect (antitribu's Valeren) and it's healing aspect (main-not considering numbers-power Obeah) The mystery about the Baali intrueges me. I can only say that Saulot must have been closer to Malkav, not just in the physical sense, but in the MENTAL sense. The clan was splitting before the Tremere ever came along, much like Saulot's mind........

As an avid fan and player of the mysterious Salubri clan, I'm very anxious for the release of this clanbook. So many clans are wrapped in the history of the Salubri, and I hope some of our questions will be soon clarified. How many Salubri ARE there out there? What about the Salubri antitribu? May the wisdom of this clan be written and read by all Vampire players.

I am a White Wolf fan and among other things I would love this book to be everything I need for the game that I am running right now. Three Salubri characters who are trying to stay alive through the darkest of Ages. I sure do hope to see more Disciplnes and perhaps some more background on Saulot and Samiel. This book would be agreat asset in my collection.

I'm gonna have to get this book sometime. I have always been intrested in the smaller clans; salubri, cappadocian, and kiasyd are all real cool.

By the old rules there are only 8 salubri alive at a time but now since they are part of the sabbat I'm not sure. I have read through the Book of Nod and I don't remember the passage from the previous reviewer but it did talk about saulot being baal's brother and betraying him to Cain when he started his demon worshipping.

Ohh well I hope they come out with a revised Salubri book.

Long are the nights, and full of death and hatred. But there is a clan that rather engages in healing and helping than murder and destruction. This clan, whose members are rarely seen, is Salubri, the clan of Saulot's childer. Saulot, gentle Saulot, first vampire to achieve Golconda. Saulot, merciful Saulot, who was murdered through betrayal and treachery. Saulot, angellike Saulot, who will be the fate of the Ba'ali.
