===== 1 - Word from the editors desk =====
Welcome,
its been a while since a fresh Samedi newsletter hit the digital
shelves so here is my creation. Hopefully you'll find something worth
the read within this little newsletter.
Enjoy!

===== 2 - Keepers of Traditions wish list =====
The samedi clan is a heart warming addition to the Vtes universe and
its my hope they get fitted in a little better than they normaly have.
Let me expand on that a bit before continuing onto the wish list
itself:
The bloodline is quite unique in that it got 4 disciplines, which also
turns out to be a bit of a bane because of how the discipline spread
needs to be balanced. The Obfuscate + Fortitude combo is the most
common one within the clan, but since they do not share this
discipline spread with any of the regular clans its hard to fill a
crypt with a splash of Samedi.
So, on to my wish list for the Keepers of Traditions featuring Samedi:
1 - An incentive to play fighting Samedi.
The clan got a contract and some fight cards, they also got vampires
sporting specials that leads to belive they should be out slapping
stuff. But there is something missing that pushes them over to be
excellent at fighting sadly.
2 - A new Thanatosis card.
Yes, far fetched and a bit off side but this point connects with the
one above - What if the card that fronted Samedi as a fighting clan
was in the form of a Thanatosis card? I have no real suggestion for a
card that would make them viable brawlers, but perhaps something to do
with equipment to follow the Jack Dawson/Reg Driscoll/Hag's Wrinkle
trifecta.
3 - A new Samedi vampire.
Perhaps not so far fetched as number 3 on the list. Group 2 Samedi got
7 vampires, group 4 only got 4 and group 3 sits with a lonely vampire
so there is some space to fill out. Lithrac is Cock Robins Archon,
maby a new Samedi archon will come in the upcoming set? Something
entirely different will come, like Toy (the dude inside Toy's chest)?
All in all, i hope that if there is a vampire from the Samedi
bloodline represented he or she will have a lot of friends to play
with :)
===== 3 - Murder Firm - The Deck =====
So, this issues deck isnt competetive at all but instead something you
can bring to the pub game and play when someone gets loud and cocky.
The plan is simple: Genina gets something to shoot or stab with and
then goes on a wild amaranth-hunt around the table.
