Everything

The Xibalan no longer exist — they died out with the rest of the Camazotz. No evidence contradicts their research. No stories tell of the Xibalan past the final fall of Bat. The fallen werebats are dead and gone, never to trouble Gaia’s children again.

What everyone knows so often has an exception. Storytellers wanting to put the lie to this received wisdom should use the rules for Camazotz in W20 Changing Breeds for Xibalan characters.

who would escape and restart the infection no matter how thorough the Camazotz were or how carefully they planned — almost as if Bat himself helped ensure some of his fallen children always existed, just in case.

The number of Xibalan seemed to ebb and flow with the state of Bat’s mind and his dedication to Gaia. When Bat’s faith in the Celestine wavered, the Xibalan population thrived. When he regained confidence and committed himself to her cause, the Camazotz seemed better able to find and destroy Xibalan nests.

When the Garou destroyed the South American Camazotz, Bat’s most pure and uncorrupted children, the spirit’s identity fractured. The Xibalan flew from their earthly hiding places to be by his side and fight the loyal-ist Gaian Camazotz who would keep him divided. They helped convince Bat of the futility of the struggle. When the Australian Camazotz lost hope — as the Garou nation slaughtered the Bunyip — the Xibalan flew ahead of the fallen Bat into the depths of the Wyrm’s strongholds in the Umbra, never to be heard from again. Whether they’re truly gone, or just masters of killing everyone who discovers their existence remains to be seen.
