Clan description/background: The Hsiung are a people of the frontier, having lived there since the empire's founding. A particularly widely traveled family, the homeland or origin of their clan has been lost to time. Though some elders claim an origin from dragons the lack of a mystical bloodlines puts much doubt to the claim. Nonetheless, this family is one that had made its wealth via its connections in the frontier and in the barbarian held lands along with a willingness to undertake risks to make new contacts within such dangerous lands.
While widely spread across the frontier they were rarely interested in the central provinces where they quite often found scorn as "bumpkins' or half-barbarians due to their connections. But even with that treatment, when the idea of a sect being created in the region was announced they were interested, investing in the project when it was originally founded and thus finding a stable position in the organization for their younger generations to be something greater than before.
