"Like blossoms on slow water, the common funeral
Unrolled its swaddling band, Lapping, Tightening
Till we were braced and bound
Like brothers in a ring"
-- Seamus Heaney --
 The Fallen Angels maintain a separate set of traditions to the Camarilla (although they do not advertise this fact). The Traditions take the form of edicts passed down from the Phoenix to the rest of the Clan. They are:
*To destroy another of the blood is the greatest sin. * The Fallen angels hold diablerie as the greatest sin. They mercilessly hunt diablerists regardless of the local laws. No Angel would ever engage in this practice himself.
*Honour your leaders for they guide your path. An edict to strengthen the rank system of the clan.
*Honour each other's territory. Angels may travel freely through each others territory but they usually maintain the formality of asking first.
*Do not appear as a false god. Many Angels possess True Faith. Appearing as a god would both go against this and endanger the the clan.
*Honour those of the blood who deserve such honour. Angels judge other Kindred on their individual nature more than their clan.
*Teach your childe all the traditions and ways. It is important that these traditions are passed on due to the high growth rate of the clan.
*Do not create childe from the young, elderly, diseased, or insane. The Angels choose only healthy victoms to become Kindred.
*Drink not the blood of your brothers or cousins. Angels are forbidden from drinking the blood of other kindred, regardless of clan.
*Aid your brother, your ally, and your friends.
*Obey the Traditions of the clan.
*Do not traffic with demons or their children.
