The Clans of Norland are the families or groups of associated individuals who identify themselves and are identifiable as a cohesive societal unit within the Kingdom of Norland. Clans are granted the right to bear heraldry and are considered by the Kingdom of Norland to be a single political entity. Many clans maintain their own traditions, rites of passage, and appointment or dismissal processes; provided their methods comply with the greater laws of Norland. In times of war clans often rally to themselves any willing bannermen to fight in their name and in the name of the Kingdom.

Clans of Norland are recorded in the Book of Clans, a tome maintained by order of the King of Norland, which details both extant and extinct clans of Norland.

Registered Clans of Norland

Clans of Norland are expected to meet a number of requirements in Norland to be officially recognized by the King of Norland and the High Keeper, and are all registered in the Book of Clans which is maintained by the High Keeper of the Red Faith.

Edvardsson

Clan Edvardsson is an ancient Norlandic clan which finds its roots as direct descendants of Edvard Thorsson Ruric, the eldest son of Thoromir I Ruricsson Armahnk. It is currently the primary branch of the Ruric family, holding the title of King of Norland, though in the past has been considered the Black Sheep of the Ruric Clans, due to the actions of their founder.

Eiriksson

Clan Eiriksson is an ancient Norlandic clan which finds its roots as direct descendants of Eirik Thorsson Ruric, the secondborn son of Thoromir I Ruric. They brag a number of Kings in their history, though recently have fallen into the shadows of history.

Freysson

Clan Freysson is an ancient Norlandic clan which finds its roots as direct descendants of Frey Thorsson Ruric, the thirdborn son of Thoromir I Ruric. They are likely the wealthiest of the three clans, having a history of running the Norlandic treasury as well as the prolific Vykk Co. While there have been few Freysson Kings of Norland, they fondly remember King Donovan, and his defence of The Krag

Camian

Clan Camian is a clan which rose to prominence during the reign of Caedric I, their first Chieftain being High Keeper Alisa Camian. They are know for producing a staple Norlandic brew, Ashwood Spirits, as well as a number of Camian brand drinks.

Nyre

Kvitravn

Clan Kvitravn is a recent clan which rose to prominence during the reign of Halvar I Edvardsson, their first Chieftain being the Warrior and Bounty Hunter Einar Kvitravn. The Kvitravns are known for their straightforwardness and prominence in battle. Many of the Kvitravns serve in the Northguard to this day as Einar himself did.

Unclanned Families of Norland

Any notable families or groups of associated individuals who have not met the requirements to attain Clan status and are not officially recognized by the King of Norland and the High Keeper are classified as Unclanned Families.
