Bloodlines is a series of player's option focused splatbooks for Vampire: The Requiem. As the title suggests, they largely focus on adding new bloodlines - the subrace option for vampires based on which clan you originally had. The original 1st edition run consist of three books, with the naming structure "Bloodlines: The X", as well as fourth book titled "Ancient Bloodlines". 2nd edition revived the series.
Each bloodline usually comes with its own specific bloodline discipline, or at least some unique devotions.
