Independent Vampires

New York City isn't home just Sabbat Vampires. While they are the controlling majority in the city; vampires of the independent clans also call the city home. The Giovanni in particular have an agreement with Cardinal Polonia to operate in the city itself and even control certain portions of it. In exchange, the Sabbat gains information from the Giovanni that they collect in their territory. In particular it is known the Giovanni have large sway and control over JFK Airport. In addition to this, the Giovanni are limited to no more then five members of the clan in the city in any given time. The Followers of Set in the city though have no such agreement. The Setites do often keep a low profile in the city; they are known to sell and trade with members of the Sabbat for rare blood and weapons on occasion. Lastly, there is also a delegation of Bahari that call New York City home. These vampires mostly keep to themselves and are currently petitioning the Sabbat as a whole for membership. These Bahari are quick to offer aid and support to any Sabbat member who asks.

Anarch Vampires

The Anarch Vampires of New York have always had an understanding with the Sabbat. They largely leave each other alone. In exchange for not aiding the Camarilla within the city, the Anarchs have been granted control and territory of Cony Island. As a result the Anarchs of New York mostly keep to themselves and out of the way of the Sabbat. Though the vampires of both sects have been known to work together from time to time.
