About Us
BLACK ROSE SOCIETY was founded on the initiative of House Sauromatos in November 2017 as its first Protectorate-Partner.
Essentially independent of its patron in House Sauromatos,
BLACK ROSE SOCIETY has been taking on many of the functions marking a traditional outer court to a Vampyric Household:
Providing a safe haven to gather, to mingle, to exchange news and information, to enjoy hospitality, to befriend, to learn on a basis of personal knowing.
In this, BLACK ROSE SOCIETY is explicitly open to all interested parties who might be sympathetic to us, both Vampyres and Black Swans, whether they seek closer affiliation with our sponsor in House Sauromatos or not, and indeed, whether they are familiar with the customs of Vampyre Society or still seek to learn more.
Since 2019, BLACK ROSE SOCIETY has promoted and supported the global vampire subculture through weekly moderated discussions in two languages and regular regional meetings.
Our internationally oriented community organization offers vampires and black swans an uncomplicated and well-maintained network to exchange ideas with other members from Europe and abroad using the third-party platform Discord.
Our Mission
We are a Modern Living Vampyre Community Organization dedicated to education, outreach, international community networking and providing opportunities to gain personal experience about Vampyre Culture and its traditions and diversity.
Our Vision
We seek to provide a safe and familial atmosphere where interested self-identified Vampyres and Black swans might to get to know eachother and work together in an unconstrained and non-obligatory environment with Black Rose Society’s overseeing board and its sponsor in House Sauromatos for the preservation and strengthening of Vampyre Culture and a better Vampyre Community in our regions.
An Internationally Minded Community
Since our establishment BLACK ROSE SOCIETY has been an internationally-minded Vampyre Community Organization bridging global and regional levels of the Vampyre Community, reaching across languages and borders and finding common ground in celebrating the living diversity of Vampyre Culture worldwide.
Our Mentality
We in BLACK ROSE SOCIETY take great pride in the familial nature of our community as well as in the level of sophistication and honourable conduct of our active internal membership. Our community may not be the right fit for you, or it may indeed be the place you gladly call a haven.
BLACK ROSE SOCIETY inherits from our patron in House Sauromatos the values of dutiful service to Vampyre Society. We show passion and perseverance in living up the the ambitious standards we set for ourselves and in building a better community for us all.
BLACK ROSE SOCIETY expects your active participation. In our weekly discussions and regular events you are encouraged to bring your own ideas to the table, to grow as an individual and to pass on knowledge and personal experience to your peers.
In BLACK ROSE SOCIETY we dare to dream of the exceptional and work together to make it manifest reality.
Our Friends and Partners
The work we do is possible thanks to the ones who are working with us, alongside us and those who were there before our time.
Our Patron and Sponsor, House Sauromatos is a traditional Vampyric Household based in Germany.
