Generation

All Cainite's trace their ancestry according to how far removed they are from Caine, how many generations down their cursed line they are. When Caine sired in Enoch, he sired the second generation, who in turn sired the third and on and on until the present night. Cainites use generation to describe their heritage as Caine' children. Those of low generation, two or three times removed from Caine, are accorded more respect than those nine or ten times removed.
