Howdy,
So Franciscus has been Revealed to be a !Salubri and Blooded by the Code, gaining Valeren (and +1 strength and cap 3).
Question 1: His sect changed with his clan, yes? He's now Sabbat?
He gets into combat and plays Armor of Caine's Fury and Trap before range. His opponent has no strike other than the default hand strike and no presses to end, but does have enough blood to survive long enough to hit Franciscus three times.
Question 2: Was it a mistake for Franciscus to play the Trap? Is he going to burn, despite all the damage done to him being prevented?
I think the answers are 1) Yes, he's Sabbat, and 2) Yes, he's going to burn.
Thanks,
Alex

Yes. When you change clan, you change your current sect to the default sect of the new clan.

"Prevented" damage isn't "taken". [LSJ 20021028]
(this needs to be made clearer, eiter by definition of the word "taken" or by a cardtext update)
So - I don't know if it was a mistake to play the Trap.
Franciscus won't burn in this combat if all the damage inflicted to him is prevented.
Well, Franciscus wouldn't burn whether he prevented the damage or not, if he can survive the combat (must've been a trick question).

Sorry for being a little off-topic, but this needs to be re-posted With cards like Derange and Clan Impersonation one's current sect also changes? For example a prince gets Deranged by a !Malkavian she loses her sect therefore her title?

Yes, if you change clan, you change sect along with it. If you don't belong to the correct sect, your title (if any) goes inert as long as you are that sect.

The title will be recovered when the sect (and sometimes clan) is changed to appropriate.

Camarilla: Franciscus is burned (without going into torpor) if he takes MORE THAN 3 damage during a single combat.
Yup, trick question
