The "Anti-Tribe" are those vampires who have gone against the grain of the mainline clan. Collectively known as the Antitribu, they consist of the iconoclasts within their own clans and banded together to make sure that they aren't picked off by their annoyed kin. The Antitribu include:

* Brujah, Gangrel, Malkavian, Nosferatu, Toreador, and Ventrue who think the Camarilla ain't shit and joined the Sabbat. The Brujah are by far the most common of these Antitribu.
* Tremere who chafe under the yoke of the Pyramid and went to do their own thing under the leadership of Tremere's former right-hand man Goratrix back in the 18th century. This did not sit well with the Tremere, who cursed their renegade kin so that all Tremere who had undergone the Vaulderie were marked with a symbol of treason upon their foreheads, only visible to Tremere. This was followed by an event in 1998 where a great curse turned all those Tremere to dust, but the ones who hadn't undergone the Vaulderie escaped this fate, one of them being Heinrich Himmler himself. In 1999 Saulot won his centuries-long battle with Tremere, kicking the guy out of his body and into Goratrix's. Tremere then destroyed his upstart disciple, and is indicated to have bodyjacked him.
** Another split in the Tremere happens sometime in the 2010s when a small-time primogen out of Milwaukee named Carna gets ahold of a tome of blood magic called '' Book of the Grave-War'', which gives her the ability to break Blood Bonds, like the ones tieing her to the Tremere Pyramid. Having been given the rawest deal by the Pyramid since the 1410s, she books it for the Anarch Free State in California with the Book and a crew of followers, creating House Carna. By 2018 she's amassed a decent power base and is slowly reworking the Tremere's traditions, using neo-paganism and [[SJW|witchcraft as a foundation with a distinct progressive-feminist bent]]. She's also ''terrified'' that the Pyramid will finally try to track her down for her defection. Then the Second Inquisition practically nukes the Inner Council in Vienna and the Camarilla start pulling all of their higher-ups into a conflict with the Sabat in the Middle East. So, bullet dodged! And now we don't have to justify rolling up Anarch Tremere anymore! Woo!
* Assamites who consider their own clan to be compromised but are still dedicated to their mission to fucking up the Antediluvians. The mainline clan is surprisingly cool about this, and the two groups never draw swords against one another. The Assamite Antitribu do a lot of the behind-the-scenes heavy lifting for the Sabbat, being both the principal scholars of their Noddist sects and principal operatives of the Black Hand.
* Ravnos who reject the culture of the mainline clan and went to do their own thing. There is still a great degree of honor between thieves, and the Ravnos consider giving their word sacred, so they're at least roughly neutral to one another.
* Setites who reject the snake fetishism and worship of their parent clan. They set up shop in the Caribbean and replaced all the Egyptian iconography of their clan with a Voudoun-inspired style and started to call themselves the Serpents of the Light. They are still all about the vice.
* Tzimisce who don't feel like joining the Sabbat and just want to do their own thing. This is the Old Clan Tzimisce and stick to their castles in eastern Europe outside of the affairs of Kindred society. They consider Vicissitude an abomination and instead practice Koldunic Sorcery, which grants them all sorts of magical powers, although a few of their elders secretly use Vicissitude as well. Because of their insular nature the Camarilla, Sabbat and the Tzimisce as a whole are fine with leaving them alone.
* Lasombra has a small number of European elders who believe that the Camarilla have a better shot at defeating the Antediluvians than the Sabbat does. These individuals are rare, and those who live long are rarer still. The most notable example of such a Lasombra to pull off his stunt is Giangaleazzo, the Archbishop-turned-Prince of Milan, whose spectacular defection (burning all the sick fucks in a mansion while shit-talking them how they are monstrous idiots) earned him the respect of the Camarilla and a high spot on the shit list of the Sabbat. Then there is the Ashirra (Islamic Kindred) housing considerable Lasombra in Mecca and Medina, Suleiman ibn Abdullah, who met Mohammad himself, saw his True Faith and dedicated himself to protect Humanity and Islamic lands. Pretty cool guy, good luck taking him on in a True Faith 10 burning city.
* Giovanni Antitribu don't exist. Sure, there's always a couple of troublemakers and upstarts who need to cool their heads, but vitae is thicker than even blood and such hotheads are kept in check by the family, and at worst made to sit down for a talk to clear the air. After such talks there will be no more trouble, but the books are vague on if this is because of the interpersonal skills of the family leaders, the use of large amounts of the Dominate discipline or because the troublemaker is...
