Kindraa

The modern abbreviated version of "Kindred Associations", Kindraa is a Clan term used to define one of the groupings exclusively used within Clan Fire Mandrill.

Description

Originally condensed as Kindrasc, each of these groups acts/reacts as a 'mini' Clan within the overall Clan Fire Mandrill structure. Each Kindraa is centered/organized around one or two Bloodnames, a single powerful one supported by one or more lesser bloodnames to reduce (already ubiquitous) inbreeding. The majority of the other Clans find this division to be foolish and/or a sign of weakness. Each Kindraa acts independently of the others, occasionally even openly fighting amongst themselves, but all unite if a threat or insult is offered to the whole of the Clan.
