Ripped straight outta bwpedia! But it's here now.

Thoughtcatcher

This race originates from Italy where they, thanks to abilities to rig the world of politics and business, created an empire obliterated during the Third World War.

Arcana specialization: Manipulations Racial trait: Underworld: Luck +10 Necropolis: Luck +10, +10% dodge against all weapons
Beastmaster

The most primitive and savage of all bloodlines. These vampires have never been a threat due to lack of manpower and inhabitation of unattractive regions of Siberia. This marginal importance let them survive through war.

Arcana specialization: Beast Lore Racial trait: HP +20%
Cultist

Bloodline that originates from African prairies, where not so long ago shamans used to summon rain or bring famine upon neighbouring tribes using their rituals.

Arcana specialization: Rituals Racial traits: Underworld: Luck +5, BP +10% Necropolis: Luck +5, BP +10%, +5% critical strike chance
Absorber

Little is known about origin of this bloodline. Maybe except for one thing: they're new to the world of vampires. They appeared on territory of former China, when the war was almost over. Many suspect, that they're product of Chinese experiments.

Arcana specialization: Bloodmagic Racial traits: Underworld: HP +10% BP +10% easiness +5% Necropolis: HP +10% BP +10% easiness +5%, all weapons damage +5
Cursed one

A race of vampires that originates from the Carpathian Mountains. Legend has it that the founder of this bloodline was Vlad Drakos, a croatian reeve, who wanted to hide his hideous appearance by living in the wilderness where he was changed by one of the ancient vampires. Every one of his offspring inherited the strange changes that transform them into abominable beasts.

You can't choose this race at the beginning. You'll be able to change into Cursed One after completing all the pilgrimages in Act II.

Arcana specialization: Curses Racial traits: Underworld: BP +10%, hit with all weapons +30

I couldn't have put that better myself Wink
