But Setites embraced from within their cults so...
Look, the bloodline is fine; Weakness to light Obfuscate, Presence and... I'd say Protean for anyone who wants to play someone not initiated in a cult (Serpentis, is in my view, Protean filtered through a lense of faith, and you just wouldn't learn it without having that faith) It's a great deal for any vampire, cult or not. The issue is when you don't call these folks social-caitiff or sectless setites and start calling them the Ministry. You just don't have a thousand different religions spring up after millenia of a relatively mainstream orthadoxy and it's parrallel relatives; Indian and Egyptian Setites gave us different ensembles but ultimately they gave us the same play; that simply isn't true for the Ministry, who believe in anything, You can have Fred the Settite start his own cult, with blackjack and hookers, but half the clan isn't going to decide to also make their own cults with a variety of alternatives and also band together to fight off some ultra-orthadox (hetradox, really) radical (reactionaries but first?) tea-party/black hand/puritan/SS setites.
The ministry are so loose an organization that they shouldn't be an organization.
