Who are the four Antediluvians hidden in the Shadowland's image of Nod?
If they are truly Antediluvians and not "something else"...
Their chambers, which reside within a labyrinth, are said to have many names inscribed on the walls and seals. Three of the names used are Nergal, Ninmug, and Loz. Some members of the True Black Hand believe them to be the Toreador, Ventrue, and Nosferatu Antediluvians. The fourth is unknown, but is rumored to be Malkav, others have made the assumption that it is Caine himself.
Other members of the True Black Hand claim they appear in dreams:
- Loz, coming in nightmares as a fierce warrior, the dreamer fearing his presence.
- Ninmug, causing prophesies to appear written in blood in the books of the Library of Brujah.
- Nergal, said to be a beautiful woman, tells how to save the world from destruction.
Some players have speculated that these beings may be dead Antediluvians, or the members of 2nd generation. The Black Hand does call these beings the 'Aralu', a Babylonian word for the dead. And the descriptions of them as they appear in the dreams, do seem to match those of Irad the Strong, Enoch the Wise, and Zillah the Beautiful.
