Siren (Vampire: The Masquerade 5th Edition)
The Siren is a seductive predator who uses charm, allure, and seduction to feed, luring mortals into willingly offering their blood. Sirens are often charismatic vampires who use their supernatural appeal to feed safely and pleasurably. This predator type is perfect for characters who want to play seductive, charismatic vampires.
