Nictuku

The Nictuku are the original childer of the Nosferatu Antediluvian.

History
According to Nosferatu lore, the Founder of their clan gave birth to two major bloodlines: his firstborn children, the Nictuku, who are all Blood bound to him; and a second bloodline, descended from a tribal priestess (possibly Baba Yaga) who escaped his will and gave origin to the entirety of the modern Nosferatu clan.

The Founder didn't take this disobedience lightly and considers that the modern clan is worth nothing more than extinction. The agents of this extinction are his firstborn children, the Nictuku, hideous creatures perpetually engaged in a crusade to wipe out the clan's strays.

The Nosferatu treat the Nictuku seriously; part of their fondness for sewers is because they build these underground havens into massive fortresses, complete with gun emplacements and embankments on the lower levels. The Nosferatu information exchange tools, up to and including ShreckNET, are intended to exchange Nictuku sightings.

The Nictukus were created by the founder of the Nosferatu clan to destroy his Childer. Some claim that the Antediluvian hopes that Caine will remove the curse upon him and that he will be as beautiful as he once was.

For the most part, the Nictukus remain asleep. But according to the Masquerade of the Red Death Trilogy Vampire cosmogony, their awakening can be interpreted as the first step of the Gehenna.

In Clanbook: Nosferatu Revised, Baba Yaga, the Witch, appears dead. The event is described in the book Nights of Prophecy, where we finally see a Nictuku in action (namely, Vasilisa).
