SECTION III: REPRESENTATIVES
The Clan Council is a lesser division of Kaz’Ulrah government, that serves as a representative body for the Royal & Noble Clans. The objective of this conglomerate is to advise the King, to discuss matter of importance, and to draft and suggest legislation within the Kingdom. A majority vote is required for legislation to progress to the King and his Council. Despite not holding any executive authority, the Clan Council is an important function within the Kingdom, and is often how dwed might progress into politics and into courtier positions.

 

Clan Council

 

Royal Clan
The Royal Clan is the clan of the High King. This Clan is well respected within the Kingdom for providing one of its sons to be the leader of the Kingdom. As a result, the Royal Clan is allowed two representatives, and the tie breaking vote.

 

Noble Clans
Noble Clans are typically the largest and well regarded clans, anointed so by the King following service to their Kingdom. They are allowed two representatives, typically the Clan Father and an Elder.

 

Commoner Clans
Commoner Clans are the everyday citizenry of the Kingdom. They are a step above the vassal clans and are allowed a single representative in the Clan Council.

 

SECTION IV: CLAN STATUS
Clan status is something that is looked upon with great honor in the Kingdom of Kaz’Ulrah. Members feel great pride in their Clan and as a result strive to better it as a unit. Clans can gain status, but by the same token, can lose it if deemed appropriate by the High King and his Council. 

 

Royal Clan
The Royal Clan status is acquired when a member of that Clan becomes High King of Kaz’Ulrah. This clan is allowed two representatives and the tie breaker vote in the Clan Council, in addition to being given a Clan Hall, and being allowed to have two Vassal Clans.

 

Noble Clan
A Noble Clan is one that has spent much time within the Kingdom of Kaz’Ulrah and has proven itself time and time again loyal to the Kingdom. This status is granted by the High King and his Council to Clans that have been a part of the Kingdom for at least six stone months. Noble Clan’s are allowed two representatives in the Clan’s Council, a Clan Hall, and two Vassal Clans.

 

Commoner Clan
Commoner Clans are Clans that have spent at least one month within the Kingdom of Kaz’Ulrah and have displayed signs of great potential. They are given a Clan hall and one representative in the Clan Council, and can have one Vassal Clan.

 

Vassal Clan
Vassal Clans are the Clans which are striving to become Commoner Clans. In order to became a Vassal Clan, a group of four Dwed must approach the leader of a Clan and request that they be vassalized under their clan. Then over the period of a month they must gather supplies, their kin and prepare their papers. After the period of a month they are allowed to request Commoner Clan status from the High King and his Council. Vassal Clans have neither a Clan Hall nor a representative in the Clan Council.
