Who were some of the other possible Antediluvians?
There are some whose generations are unknown (or at least unconfirmed.) They are believed to be of very low Generation, perhaps even 3rd.
Osiris: Sired by Typhon, killed by Set. A source who worked on early WW books claimed Osiris was to have been one of the original 13 3rds. Orisis's revised history in Mummy 2nd ed., does not cover his Generation. In the real world, some believe Typhon was the Greek name for Set, whether the WOD also has Set and Typhon being the same is unknown.
Ashur: While many vampires believe Ashur was just another name for Cappadocius, some Cappadocians believed Ashur and Cappadocius were two different vampires. They still believe Cappadocius to be 3rd generation, but also believe Ashur to be a 2nd generation vampire who sired Cappadocius. They cite the claims of the Assamites as possible evidence that there were more than three 2nds.
The 3rd Generation Lhiannan: The Lhiannan bloodline claims descendence from the Crone. If true, and if the Crone was embraced by Caine, then there would have to be a 3rd in their bloodline. However the Crone is also rumored to be the "third" Baali Progenitor. This would make her 4th, which would explain how she could bloodbond Caine without having to be a mage. (Her command to Caine to be embraced, may have meant a lover's embracement and not a vampire' Embrace.) However, even if she began as 4th, she could have lowered her Generation by diablerizing the childer given to her by Caine.
The 3rd Generation Ravnos: There is the origin story inwhich Ravnos was embraced directly by Caine, and Ravnos embraced Ennoia (who sired the Gangrel.) If true... who was the 3rd generation childe of Ravnos that started the "Ravnos" Clan, and sired all of the Clan's 4ths?
