The Venetians are desperately trying to increase their presence within London, already having spread to most of the rest of the Empire. While the embrace of the Dunsirn clan have been a start, too much of their former financial power is being hurt as London increasing becomes the banking center of the world for them to sit idly back. Reinforcing their interests in port cities and constantly looking for new ventures to increase their holdings, they have become a fixture in the British business world.
Generally, there is little reason for a member of this clan to be anywhere near the core of the British Empire, except when hired for a specific task. In the rest of the Empire, however, they are much more common. Many of the older Ventrue wonder at their involvement in the Indian Rebellion while attacks on Kindred in Egypt and the Middle East are always attributed to them. The number of neonates lost while seeking their fortune in these Muslim lands is almost as great as those disappearing into the Orient.
The Setites have had an increasingly large presence in Britain, particularly London, and are even said to have had an interest in, if not helping to incite, the Opium War. Generally keeping to the port cities, they have a considerably large stake in the drug trade with the Orient and artifact trade with Egypt. Of course, their presence in the latter gives them quite the advantage, so that they have managed to keep even the Giovanni from cutting in considerably.
Very rare just about anywhere in the Empire except for India, the gypsy clan is almost legendary among most neonates, who have never seen one.
While there may be a Daughter of Cacophony in London, odds are that she is mistaken for a Toreador. The Samedi are unknown within the Empire, the only contact had with them was during the short possession of Mississippi. As for the Salubri, they are just as mythical as they have always been, with only the eldest in the city even aware of their existence.
They are there, that much is known. There is a Monitor in London, but any hint of his identity that the elders may have is unknown, though those close to the Prince of London have been heard to whisper that it is a point of constant irritation to the Methuselah, who sees the presence of another of his age as an affront to his possession of the city.
Insofar as they are known to exist, they are feared and hated by the Kindred of the British Empire. More know of them than might, were it not for the stake of the Crown in the Orient and the continued flow of disgruntled neonates to cities like Hong Kong and Beijing, looking to find a niche in virgin soil. Only a few have returned to tell of the horrific powers of the Eastern vampires, but the disappearance of the rest is enough cooberation to convince most of the truth of their tales.
