I could have sworn I knew the answer to this but the local
prince here in Phoenix swears up and down that Scott answered
the question exactly opposite of the way I thought was correct.
So, for the record, do Raven and Camille Devereux contest (are
treated as the same unique vampire) in VEKN tournament rules?

Raven and Camille do not contest. They are distinct vampires
who happen to have the same stats.

When playing Jyhad Online, the cards were subsumed into
one vampire, Camille the Raven. (This is no longer in use.)
The cards have never officially contested anywhere else
at any period in time.
The only way to decide if a pair of cards contest is by
card title. The titles are not the same, so they cannot
contest one another.

Just like Cristofero and Mario Giovanni, eh?

The old school rules were they do contest ie you can only have one or
the other in your deck.....I think it was recommended that you use
Raven due to the copyright issues connected with Camille....

I bet Camille & Raven are a lot more sexier....

You're probably right on that point. But with two sets of identical vampires,
I'm sure we could arrange some interesting and fun double-dates.

Or, better yet, Donal and Constanza.
The problem, of course, is that Raven is a reprint with a new picture,
since the model it's stolen from (Stephanie Seymour, I think?) didn't ever
approve of her likeness being used. No discredit to the artist (L. A.
Williams, one of my favorites), especially since he did the art for Raven,
which "replaced" Camille.
The whole mess would have been easier if they had reprinted Camille with
her old name and a new picture; as it is, the Gangrel got an extra vampire
due to some legal wrangling. It really *is* the same vampire, since a 5-cap
Gangrel with FOR PRO ani went missing, and a new one with the exact same
stats showed up. I *seriously*, seriously doubt that the designers decided
the Gangrel needed a new PRO FOR ani vamp, but also simultaneously decided
not to reprint Camille.
I mean, what really makes her different isn't as much the title as the
picture. Many of the cards reprinted in V:TES have slight alterations to
the name, and so are "technically" different. But, I don't play with both
"Dre, Leader of the Cold Dawn" and "Dre - Leader of the Cold Dawn."
Actually, I don't play with Camille and Raven in a deck, either. It
seems so obvious to me that the Gangrel weren't *intended* to "gain" an
extra vamp, but it was just a legalistic side-effect, that it just too
cheesy for me to play it. I don't insist anyone else not play both in a
deck (I just make fun of them), and don't expect any change in tournaments,
ever. But, just to stick by my guns, I never put both vamps in a deck.

While Donal and Constanza have the same disciplines, they are Princes of
different cities and have different specials.
The thing with Camille/Raven and Cristofero/Mario is that, except for the name,
picture, and minor stuff (artist, expansion/edition, copyright year, etc.) they
are identical. Same stats AND nothing else. (No titles, no specials, so there's
nowhere for them to diverge).

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Wow, I never noticed that. LSJ, a legalistic question: do "Dre,
Leader of the Cold Dawn" and "Dre - Leader of the Cold Dawn"
contest? I could really use three non-contesting pot/cel 3-caps
in my rush deck. ;-)

but maybe punctuation isn't enough of a title difference to
matter

Yes, they contest. As do
Luccia Paciola and Lucia Pacciola
Ecoterrorists and Eco Terrorists
Ricki Van Demsy and Ricki Van Demsi
etc.
and you cannot play a Spirit's Touch
after playing a The Spirit's Touch nor
a Cat's Guidance after playing a Cats'
Guidance, etc.
The idea there is that the two cards
are the "same" card if it obvious
that they are. ;-)

Damn! I guess I won't even ask about whether my two "Beast - Leatherface
of Detroit" with and without the gravy spot I spilled on one of them
contest each other.
