==History==
 
==History==
Kindraa Sainze was founded by a [[Draconis Combine]] citizen, and the tradition of ''[[seppuku]]'' survived for the entire history of the Clan. Any Sainze accepted as a bondsman by another Clan was never accepted back into the Kindraa, and so the captured warrior would commit ''seppuku'' to prevent the destruction of their genetic legacy.<ref name=fmcc43/>

Kindraa Sainze was mostly composed of MechWarrior Bloodnames, with the rest split evenly between Elementals and aerospace pilots.<ref name=fmcc43/> In [[3059]] the Kindraa had three front-line Clusters and two second line Clusters. In a change from normal Clan practices, freeborns could train as warriors if they could prove they had an acceptable trueborn warrior within three generations in their lineage (that is, a freeborn who had a trueborn great-grandparent, grandparent, or parent). Rumors suggested that the Sainze scientist caste would occasionally mix in genes from exceptional Sainze freeborn warriors, but nothing was ever proved.<ref name=FMCRC46/>

In [[3067]] a grievance between Kindraa Sainze and [[Kindraa Beyl-Grant]] exploded. The Sainzes sent three Clusters against Beyl-Grant and inflicted heavy losses. The Sainzes withdrew when [[Kindraa Faraday-Tanaga]] and [[Kindraa Payne]] joined forces to protect the Beyl-Grants. They then turned their fury on [[Kindraa Kline (Clan Fire Mandrill)|Kindraa Kline]], and inflicted so many losses that the Klines had to join [[Kindraa Mick-Kreese]].<ref name=fmu42/> These operations reduced their size, but they could still put three front-line Clusters into the field.<ref>''Field Manual: Updates'', p. 43</ref>

In late [[3068]] the Kindraa struck out against Clan Hell's Horses enclaves on [[Kirin]] and [[Niles (Clan System)|Niles]]. For the attack on Niles the Kindraa was joined by Kindraa Mick-Kreese-Kline. Both forces gained ''[[safcon]]'' and issued a ''batchall'' for the industrial facility of Industriplex Upsilon. This was defended by the Horses' Eta Galaxy who used the complex's heavy defenses to good use, only a surprise flanking maneuver breached the Horses' line to take the facility. Two weeks later in January [[3069]] the Horses' Beta Galaxy counterattacked and in a swift action defeated the defending Fire Mandrills, but not before they removed almost a Cluster's worth of captured ProtoMechs. The Kindraa's gains were quickly challenged for by other Mandrill Kindraa. The Khan called a council on [[Shadow]] to quell the growing hostility and in a surprise move Kindraa Mick-Kreese-Kline agreed to give up all its matériel gains as a token of goodwill.<ref name="WORp37">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 37: "Politics and Problems"</ref>

[[Garret Sainze]] was elected to ilKhan in February [[3071]], but did not handle the position well. Disgusted at the entire political circus taking place, Scorpion Khan [[Ariel Suvorov]] declared a Trial of Refusal against Sainze's election as ilKhan, declaring him an incompetent leader with delusions of glory.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 63–64</ref> With no choice but to accept or lose what little respect he had left, Sainze met Suvorov's forces on Shadow. In a three-day campaign four Clusters from his Kindraa battled a like number of Goliath Scorpions; by the end of the fighting Sainze had perished, along with most of his warriors.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 64, 191</ref>

The newly elected Khan, [[Amanda Carrol]], authorized Kindraa Mick-Kreese-Kline to absorb the shattered remnants of Kindraa Sainze in March 3071. She saw the Mandrills would need to unite as further challenges would result from Garret Sainze's death.<ref name="WORp65">''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 65: "Merges and Moves"</ref>

These challenges came quickly and by January 3072 [[Kindraa Mick-Kreese-Kline-Sainze (Clan Fire Mandrill)#Kindraa Mick-Kreese-Kline-Sainze|Kindraa Mick-Kreese-Kline-Sainze]] had ceased to exist.
