===The Politics of Blood===
As part of the early [[Crusader Clans|Crusader]] movement, saKhan Carson Graves of the Star Adders was searching for a way to tip the balance of power in the [[Grand Council]] in favor of the Crusaders.  He would find an ideal target in the divided [[Clan Coyote]].  With its warriors split almost evenly between the two camps, saKhan Graves would find in their ranks a powerful but dissatisfied Crusader seeking to topple the [[Warden]]-dominated leadership of her [[Clan]].  This warrior had gathered backing of eight Coyote [[Bloodname]] Houses.  Promising to aid her when the time was right, Graves would take note of the situation for later use in the Grand Council, in a plan to ultimately gain Clan Star Adder the rights to [[Trial of Absorption|Absorb]] Clan Coyote.<ref name=FM:WCp42,43/><ref name=FM:CCp113>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 113 - "Change in the Wind"</ref>

Carson Graves is an infamous figure in Clan lore, remembered for his role in this low point in Clan political history.  The Graves [[Bloodname]] House would escape the fate of the eight rebellious Coyote Bloodlines, but only at the cost of a near-perpetual state of vendetta between the Star Adders and Clan Coyote.<ref name=TC:WOKp73,74/>

The eight Coyote Bloodname Houses Reaved for their involvement of the plot were left inactive for just over a century. Following the Wars of Reaving, the Coyotes reactivated these un[[List_of_Bloodnames#Bloodnames_of_the_Inner_Sphere_Clans|tainted]] bloodlines as part of their rebuilding project. By this point, large numbers of Coyotes had been discovered to have been covert supporters of the Society, a decades-long plot by members of the Scientist caste to subvert and take over Clan society. Meanwhile, the Star Adders had become the dominant surviving Clan in the Clan Homeworlds.
