Genealogy of the Giovanni

Described in a clanbook.
- History
- Augustus Giovanni diablerised the Antediluvian Cappadocius.
Nearly all members of the clan are mortal descendants and progeny
of Augustus. They can be divided in families.
The main families are the Giovanni, the Dunsirn, the Milliners, the Rossellini,
the Ghiberti, the Pisanob and the Putanesca.
Other smaller families of Clan Giovanni (by marriage) are the St. John, the
Rothsteins, the Li Weng, the Koenig, the Hidalgo, and the Beryn.
They have specificities;
for example, the Ghiberti family made extensive contact with Africa
and the Laibon bloodline.
Those embraced before the diablerie
of Cappadocius are called The Premascines and are five to a dozen.
- The diablerie of Cappadocius was prepared by the "Conspiracy of Isaac",
prompted by Augustus Giovanni. The Cappadocians are supposed to have been
all destroyed, the last one by the Camarilla.
The Lamia bloodline was also destroyed.
- The True Vessel is the recipient containing the remainder of Cappadocius'
soul. The Samedi found it but lost it on their way to Venice, claiming
the Setites had intercepted them.

Augustus Giovanni
<4-3>
(945:1005)
Progeny of Ashur/Cappadocius.
Sire of Claudius Giovanni (1035).
He diablerised his Sire (1444), the founder of the Cappodocians. The Red Death Trilogy pretends it was caused by Lameth's manipulations, but the official setting says that he planned this himself, through the "conspiracy of Isaac". He also diablerised Lamia.

Progeny of Constancia.
Sire of Gillespi (1435).
Confident of Augustus. Ambrogino has been searching for the Sargon Fragment, an artifact that reveals the plans of Cappadocius to diablerise God and thus become Him. Ambrogino didn't think it was possible to slay an aspect of the Holy Trinity, but he did think that Cappadocius was close to a source of godlike power. It was rumoured destroyed, and thus he began searching the underworld for it.
