In the east, in India and surrounding areas, the Ravnos continued to exist. Believing themselves to be put on the earth as divine avengers, destined to exterminate demons -- the ''asuratziyya''. Divided into a caste (''jati'') system, the Ravnos of India have lived separate existences from the Western Ravnos, living as tempters of the unrighteous and pilgrims seeking their divine purpose against the ''asuratziyya''. These Ravnos were just as effected by the Week of Nightmares as their cousins, and the destruction wrought within the Western Ravnos also afflicted the Eastern Ravnos. Unlike their Western cousins, however, the ''jati'' had support systems in place, as the Kindred rulers of the region. And while many died, many more were subdued and kept in torpor until the madness had passed.
Afterwards, some were dispatched into the World, beginning to reintegrate slowly into Cainite society, learning of what had happened and all the changes that came after. And events have brought two of their eldest together, in search of a third, their sister, in order to combat the coming ''asuratziyya'' and the fallen ancient, Ravanna. In the past decade, the Eastern Ravnos have begun to organize in a manner unprecedented because of this, and are slowly becoming a more common sight in Cainite society, as their pilgrims and warriors venture out into the world looking for the Lost Sister.
|archetype1name=Wandering Priest
|archetype1text=This Ravnos, a member of the ''Brahmin jati,'' is one of the first out into the world after the Eastern Ravnos began their recovery. A wanderer who is often a new arrival in a given Domain, this Ravnos is relearning Cainite society under the new nights. The Beckoning, the Second Inquisition, the Fall of the Sabbat...the extent of much of this is unknown to her, and she is taking it in stride. In addition to learning, she is slowly attempting to 'advise' other Kindred of the Eastern Ravnos in order to make her brethren's transition into Cainite society much smoother. And though she doesn't talk about it to many, if any, she is searching for information on their wayward ancient, the 'sister' of Hazimel and Chandraputa, Marizhavashti.
