Clan Dravak

Clan Dravak is the Black-Tooth Line, a dominant gate-clan that has made harshness into inheritance. Its chiefs collect tribute, design siege traps, remember insults, and call cruelty realism before softer voices can object. Their halls glitter with oiled iron, black teeth, old victory plates, and weapons taken from people who paid late. Defenders say Dravak survives because someone is willing to be hated. Enemies answer that the clan has mistaken survival for permission. Its beauty is discipline under impossible pressure; its dread is discipline without shame.
