The Followers of Set maintain a temple in Alexandria, the Court of Miracles.[1] The city was also the birthplace of the Cult of Typhon Trismegistus, and their abandoned temple (the Typhoeum) still houses ancient lore.[2] The Lost Tribe, forerunners of the Black Hand, also operated out of Alexandria for a time.[3]

During the Victorian Age, the Ventrue Prince of the city was threatened by the Assamites and Setites. Following the bombardment by the British in 1882, the Primogen ruled the city in the Prince's stead. The Autarkis silently destroyed several Kindred within its streets.[4]

The Alexandrite Ravnos are named after the city, which became the home of Ramessu after he left India during a period of war between his clan and the Kuei-Jin.

The Society of Leopold maintains a Cenaculum in Alexandria.

Mithras first met the Ventrue scholar Bindusara in Alexandria, who gifted him with a phrygian cap.[5]
