Kan Gurihm

"Thjundvar Kjanthr" The Twelve Clans

There were twelve clans that settled Kan Gurihm. They have expanded to become the most powerful clans of the city and surrounding region.

History

When Kan Gurihm was initially formed, it was controlled by a council composed of the Elders of each of these twelve clans. However, about five centuries ago, a fierce civil war broke out and the city was greatly fragmented. During the civil war, the Drongrund clan took control of the city. The Drongrund family has ruled as the Karak-Varrik [Mountain-King] ever since, imposing some executive orders and controlling the local military. There is still a council of elders who advises the Karak-Varrik and presides of much of the law-making. Many of the old clans still hold much power, such as the Mrokklad clan who controls much of the mining and prospecting in the city’s mines, and the Lanndgoruz who controls vast trade networks. However, some of the original clans have lost much station over the years, such as the Lingrimdug clan whose name carries little weight these days.
