Other Known Groups

We know that Master Vampire Auggie has a small pride in Chicago. There is mention of several other prides in North America in DM, but none of them are close to St. Louis. No details are given as to members, other than the two that Auggie brings with him. There is also mention of the locations of other prides during the discussions of where to look to find a suitable lion for Anita's beast.
