That's pretty much what I figured. But it's not Baali, at least not
one of the ones listed. The name has two words, at least 5 characters
in length (compare to Black Annis). No Baali has more than 1 name
word, except Maureen, who has already been previewed. That leaves, up
to the current listed Vampires, eliminating already previewed, or
those who don't match the name criteria, to

Michael diCarlo Assamite
Vardar Vardarian Assamite
Count Germaine Brujah Adv
Jayne Jonestown (PAN) Brujah antitribu
Black Lotus Follower of Set
Sahira Siraj (PB) Follower of Set
Denette Stensen (PG) Gangrel antitribu
Doyle Fincher Gangrel antitribu
Janey Pickman Gangrel antitribu
Jeffrey Mullins (PG) Gangrel antitribu
Phillipe Rigaud Gangrel antitribu
Almodo Giovanni Giovanni
Ambrogino Giovanni Giovanni Adv
Carmine Giovanni Giovanni
Cristobal Ghiberti Giovanni
Raphaela Giovanni Giovanni
Black Wallace Lasombra
Alexis Sorokin Ravnos
Marion French Ravnos

Also, there are some unnamed Vampires after Valerius x2. Finally, note
that there are more than 50 vampires (52 at current count). So that
allegation was at least disproved. But my prediction, based on nothing
more than a hunch at this point, assuming it's not something new and
unique, is that it's Alexis Sorokin. He just looks like an Alexis. And
Ravnos also have a fairly dark clan signature.

While prefacing my statement with a disclaimer that I have
no idea and can't really back this up - I think Alexis is a female.
The KMW book has a Ravnos named Alexis or Danya who
uses both names and masquerades as a Toreador in order to
get close to artwork worth stealing. Naturally, the Toreador
put her on the Red List.
Plus, in the thread about the number of Ravnos, LSJ said
something to the effect of "must be something to do with the
theme of this expansion" as to why the Ravnos had more
base vampires than the other independent clans. To my
knowledge, there are no Giovanni or Setite Red List vampires,
and only one Assamite (Tariq, already printed and already
on the list as Advanced Tariq). So, that makes sense.

Kemintiri is the vampire for whom the Red List was created.
She's a Setite.

No Setite? Check spot number 6 on the spoiler page. *wry smile*

While Alexis tends to be a female dominant name in the Western world,
in Eastern Europe, depending on tradition, Alexi/Alexis is a not
uncommon male name. Granted, you might be right in this instance,
especially if there is an Alexis in the KMW book.

Ok, I'm stoopid.

Possibly stoopid squared.

Ok, I'm pretty sure the last preview is a Nec card.

Still, LSJ'd better stay alive a long time. Because when he croaks
