Via Caeli (Road of Heaven)
Nickname: the Faithful
While many of the Damned curse God, the Faithful accept the burden the Lord has placed upon them and find purpose within it. To the Faithful, everything is part of God’s Plan, even Cainites, and they devote themselves to understanding that purpose. As whole, this road was built upon the belief that God is testing the Faithful for their ability to shut out the ‘voice of Satan’, the Beast, and to strengthen their faith.
Paths
Path of Divinity - You are among the chosen of God and should be worshipped as such.
Path of Retribution - You are God's angel of vengeance and scourge of the wicked and sinful.
Path of Penitence - Your damned existence is punishment for your sins.
Path of Galconda - A rare path once preached by Saulot, which focuses on overcoming the curses of vampirism and becoming enlightened. There is a version that finds Galconda through the children of Seth (humans) or through salvation from God. Some consider it heretical, or worse.
