What difference does the plebeian / equite / patrician distinction make in vampiric society?
Ok, this isn’t a frequently asked question… The answer is “not much.” Kindred care a great deal if someone was a citizen, slave or foreigner in life. Patrician status does not matter as much. Often it is necessary for a Kindred to claim Patrician status to enforce his or her godly will upon a mortal client. Some elder Kindred wear patrician togas to emphasis their status, even if they were born slaves. This is perfectly acceptable. Kindred society does, however, strongly condemn taking the status of a citizen, toga and tri-nomen, when it is not justified.
