The Great Clans
Kigani society is based on a clan structure, with seven families descended from the Kami ruling over other families descended from those who swore fealty. Over the centuries, each family has gravitated toward a certain role or duty within the clan, although it’s common for families to trade promising students who show talent in an area that differs from that of their ancestors. The Great Clans of Kiga are diverse and powerful, dividing huge swaths of the Empire between them and commanding many thousands of samurai from families great and small.
