Editing Golconda (section)

==So, what ''is'' Golconda?==
In two words: Vampire Enlightenment. (No, not [[Path of Enlightenment|''that'' kind of Enlightenment]].)

Essentially, it's a mystical state of being where a vampire either learns to perfectly balance their Humanity with the Beast, or simply isn't affected by the Beast at all. The basic benefits involve the vampire lacking Frenzy at all, their blood consumption dropping to a point per week, and the ability to learn Disciplines without Generation limits; ones dependent on the [[GM|Storyteller]] include losing your clan's weakness or even becoming human again.

Supposedly, Archangel Gabriel originally showed Caine the concept of Golconda while he was still moping around in the Land of Nod; while Caine never succeeded in reaching this goal, [[Saulot]] allegedly did after taking a trip to [[Kindred Of The East|the far East to study certain teachings]] and other mystical shit; this seems to be where he got his third eye and a lot of his signature tricks. (Though the Kuei-Jin would certainly disagree, as their tales about "Zao-Lat" show.) He eventually came back and taught [[Salubri|his clan]] about it, basically turning them into [[Awesome|a whole clan of enlightened super-zen vampires]] (until [[Tremere]] decided to ruin it all.)

Sounds great, right? Well, there's a few catches.
