Time Of Thin Blood
In the role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade by White Wolf, Inc., The Time of Thin Blood is the time immediately preceding Gehenna, the vampires' prophesied armageddon.
Named in reference to a line of the Book of Nod, referring to one of the signs of the end times being The Time of Thin Blood - when the curse of Caine would no longer carry the strength to create new vampires, when the clanless would come to rule and Vitae would be as rare diamonds.
Most Cainite authorities agree that the current age is the Time of Thin Blood, and that judgement of the Cainites has come due.

Famous quotes containing the words time, thin and/or blood:
“Reality is not protected or defended by laws, proclamations, ukases, cannons and armadas. Reality is that which is sprouting all the time out of death and disintegration.”
—Henry Miller (18911980)
“Her little loose hands, and dropping Victorian shoulders.
And then her great weight below the waist, her vast pale belly
With a thin young yellow little paw hanging out, and straggle of a
long thin ear, like ribbon,
Like a funny trimming to the middle of her belly, thin little dangle
of an immature paw, and one thin ear.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”
—Bible: New Testament, Ephesians 6:11-12.
