Clans are groups of humanoids united by actual or perceived family descent. They typically number between 20 and 50 members. In primitive regions, these are hunter-gatherers, but are more familiar as cottagers who collect to form an agricultural hamlet. The clan exists as a smaller, integral part of a larger society, such as a tribe, chiefdom or kingdom. As important part of the clan's integrity, marriages between members of one clan usually involve an exchange with other clans. With some humanoids, matrilineal, the male surrenders their former clan and indentifies as a member of the new clan. In patrilineal societies, it is the female who surrenders her former clan.
