From The Human Clans
Once the greatest of all Human Clans... no, the greatest of all clans... Ram Clan's glory days have long since faded. Once one of many others, Ram Clan existed millennia ago. There was nothing truly remarkable about it -- that is, until Akroeg was born. Akroeg became the Chieftain of the Clan, and it was Akroeg that made it something remarkable. Under the banner of the Ram, he proceeded to conquer other clans, masterfully winning battle after battle, in diplomacy as well as on the field.
The Ram Clan soon found itself centered upon the ideals of justice and unity. When Akroeg died, his son Verek became Chieftain, and later, founder of the Seven-Star Empire. But that was not the end of the Ram Clan. Its people remained part of the Empire, as virtually every clan did, for ages. But when the Empire began crumbling... when that hideous time known as the Kin Strife came about, the people of the Ram grew outraged. It was they who had originally struggled to bring about the Empire, and to see it decay so brought pain to their hearts, and the honor they had held. This was under the time of Kaegath the Chieftain. The Chieftains of the Ram Clan were always given a special place of honor within the Empire, due to the stature of Chieftain Verek -- they had special rights. So Kaegath marched directly into the hall of the Emperor within the Palace, unimpeded by soldiers, until he came face to face with the Emperor, the massive hulk of a man that was Grudish. Drawing his sword, Kaegath threw it down at Grudish's feet. Drawing off his ramshide mantle, he threw it at Grudish's feet. And then Kaegath swore before the startled assembly of the lords and the Emperor, quivering with rage, that the people of Ram Clan would no longer follow the Empire -- they were free, they were leaving.
And they did. The Ram Clan separated from the Empire, traveling deep into the impenetrable forests of southwest Therengia. They no longer have much in the way of glory, having been forgotten by most history texts. Except for some trade here and there, they interact little with the rest of the world. But in those woods, the people of Ram Clan still follow the old ways. They still hope to see those ways return.
