It is believed the clan only came to be as the original Vendkazs had believed the Kllozin deal to be easy to deal with. Thinking his first born would not be cursed, but rather his bastard that was due a month prior to his proper heir. However, as cruel as fate was the kllozin himself did not fancy being tricked, upon the bastards birth he kept his word. Taking the boy but cursing the next child of Vendkazs to be born "Mors Touched". And thus the first Kili of Clan Coksgrumst was born with his red skin, bronze beard and blue firey eyes. Almost immediately ousted by the nobility in favor of another branch of the Vendkazs, Kili found himself being trained in secret for his fathers love of his first born son. Once grown, the young boy now a full grown man would go on to slay the Grand Blue Dandy a remorharz apex monster that was said to bite through adamantine with its chilling venom.
