Multi-Cultural Examples
Mixed Clan Family
When individuals from different clans marry, children typically take one parent's clan affiliation but may reference both informally:
- Ravik kin-Moto Thornvale (father from kin-Hanga, mother from kin-Moto)
- "Ravik of Thornvale, born to the Wind but walks with Fire"
Clan Transition
Some individuals change clan affiliation due to life circumstances or professional specialization:
- Formerly: Kaelen kin-Hanga Rynthar
- Now: Kaelen kin-Kivuli Rynthar (moved to night-side caves)
- Referred to as: "Kaelen Windborn of the Shadow clan"
No Clan Affiliation
Some individuals, particularly those from isolated settlements or mixed backgrounds, may not claim a clan:
- Personal name + Surname only
- Example: Miren Velkara (no clan designation)
- Referred to with settlement name instead: "Miren of Deephollow"
