Ashdelver Clan

Structure

The Ashdelver Clan is lead by a king, elected by and from the heads of the Noble families. The king has almost complete control over the clan, barring the ascension to and stripping of nobility, and their removal and successors, both of which are decided via vote amongst the heads of the noble families.
Members of the clan are divided into families, however families are often merged or split depending on the political and economic views and interests of the individual members, and adoption into another family is possible at any age.
There are ten noble families. Two of the six founding families remain (all of which were noble), with three others remaining of the great expansion families, defined as having been voted into the nobility prior to the discovery and subsequent monopoly over the adamantium deposits that caused the clan to rise to greatness (Three of the Great Expansion families were also founders, however one of those families was later wiped out in the Adamantium War). Four of the Noble families were founded between the Great Expansion and the Adamantium War, and call themselves the Hemian families, and one family has risen to the nobility since the Ashdelvers settled in Sethia.
