The feel of it

Why it lands at the table

Shadows & Shrouds is a 2022 expansion for Vampire: The Masquerade – Rivals. It needs the core set.

It adds two ready-to-play 49-card clan decks. The Lasombra risk their agenda to win; the Hecata are necromancers who turn dead mortals into wraiths.

A 30-card crypt pack is included for deck customisation. The two clans can face each other or join the core set clans.
