Legacy Clarifications

Lesser Legacy Clans: 

A Legacy clan refers to a prominent family or group of Awakened with deep historical roots, typically established by powerful First-Generation survivors of the Nightmare spell. While they often share common traits, such as ruling a Citadel or possessing a Legacy heirloom, these characteristics are not universal

It is also a large, self-sufficient institution or a tribe. It consists of immediate family members and hundreds of other people who are professionals who manage properties, craftsmen, mundane soldiers, Awakened retainers, and their dependents

Often having Supplementary Knight Orders within their clan Banner

Great Legacy Clans: 

Once 7, the now 5 great legacy clans are a Cut above the rest, Founded by the top 7 awakened of the First Generation.

The Legacy Clans, particularly the 5 Great Clans, were authorities in terms of personal power and combat prowess, surpassing the ancient Awakened in many aspects. They were harsher, more extreme, and better tempered than their ancient counterparts due to their rise in a hellish world. They had risen to resist the Nightmare Spell, being shaped into a formidable force under its harsh pressure.

Most of the human territories in the Dream Realm fall under the purview of the Great Legacy Clans. Each of them spreads its influence and rules over separate unconnected human enclaves in the Dream Realm. 

The Great Legacy Clans have multiple Citadels in their Territories run by Vassel Clans and Knight Orders

Knight Orders: 

Knight orders are similar to the lesser clans However often without Territories or the hundreds of other people who manage properties, craftsmen, and mundane soldiers needed to run an official legacy clan

This means the Knight orders have less members, often just a Small family, usually Part of a larger Legacy clan.
