A warrior caste, they have the strength of ten men and regenerate limbs lost in battle. This Cianteto Tribe is from Mexico, supposedly raised from the dead by the same witches that gave Montezuma his immense power. Ultra violet rays, sunlight, silver and garlic all have a stronger effect on these vampires. The Ashe Tribe are the most sensitive to those elements most traditionally used to combat vampires. The concept of eleven distinct tribes was later revised into the concept of twelve distinct houses in the series the Pallintine and Ligaroo glyphs were recycled as the Chthon and Leichen glyphs, respectively. Their origins and powers are briefly detailed in a special feature on the Blade DVD, but this information is not canonical. In a previous conception of the film, the eleven tribes of the House of Erebus were to be distinct socially and biologically, but in the final cut of the Blade film they were reduced to simple surnames to provide a mutlicultural flavor. Familiars: Officer Krieger (killed by Frost), throat ripped out.Unknown: Pearl (burnt by Karen using a UV Lamp, dies in explosion of vampire library), Sands (Experimented on with Aurora now unaffiliated).He presumably kills himself or dies from starvation of blood, since no one could feed him after Frost died at the hands of Blade. When Curtis (as a ghoul) attempts to attack her, Karen fights him off with a bone then escapes. Karen was later thrown into a pit with a decaying Webb. His flesh continued to decay as if he were dead. Curtis, after he and Karen Jenson were bitten by Quinn, did not complete his transformation as a vampire and was not brought back all the way, being brought back only with an instinct to feed on humans, rodents, corpses, other animals and even vampires, as Quinn worded it. Turnedbloods: Deacon Frost (killed by EDTA after becoming La Magra), Mercury (killed by Karen using Vampire Mace), Quinn (Ashed by Blade), Vanessa Brooks (Ashed by Blade), Curtis Webb (Most likely, as it appeared, a vampire decayed severely so that he was more of a zombie than a vampire in appearance.Purebloods: Gitano Dragonetti (exposed to sunrise by Frost), thirteen further elders (sacrificed in the ritual of La Magra, one elder killed by Mercury), Alex (exposed to Aurora virus).Location: unidentified major city in Europe.The house was planned to have a major role in the series' second season. In keeping with the depiction in the film, the house is described as "conservative". The House of Erebus reappears in the series as one of the twelve vampire houses, playing a minor role in the episode "Turn of the Screw". The transformation ritual in the Temple of Eternal Night allows the various powers of each vampire type to be transferred to Frost, conferring on him the powers of La Magra. In Blade, Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff) uses the vampire council as part of his plan to raise the Blood God. The purebloods on the council are divided into eleven "tribes," with a common name and tattoo design being particular to each. The house takes its name from Erebus, the ancient Greek god of darkness and shadow. It is ruled by a "Shadow Council" of 12 purebloods, and also treasures the book of Erebus (a vampire bible). This house first appears in the film Blade and is the house that the antagonizing vampires belong to. White Prince's Glyph (from the episode "Hunters") Erebus ( Blade)
