Clan System
A clan is mainly a tight group of dustling dragons. They can have a central theme, or they can be a mixed bag. Serpents and foxes are both allowed into the clan at the leader's discretion, and both are treated differently than dustlings.
Clans have no limit to members once formed.
Forming a clan:
An elder male (one that is at least 5 months old-- 'special' dustlings excluded) may form a clan by rallying or forcing three females to agree to live under his leadership. This may be easy or hard depending on scarcity of unclaimed females. The male may breed in character or out of character with any female he wants, but usually, the male offspring will leave the clan once it's an adult. Clans are mostly comprised of females, the male leader, and male/female serpents or foxes. Some weak males may take shelter in a clan if the leader is feeling kind.
Females may also run a clan, but it is more rare. Twins may own a clan together, but it is only under special circumstances that two dusts other than twins will run a clan together. Normally this is done by two males in a coalition with one male still being the more dominant.
RP to form a clan is required. Anyone forming a clan will need to provide proof of members 'joining', and the upkeep of a clan will be two complete RP's by clan members per month. For a self-rp to count, it must be a complete page in Word.
--> New: Star Foxes and Comet Serpents may now form Packs (Foxes) and Crashes (Serpents). The five month rule still applies, with the exception of 'special' Serpents or Foxes. Aside from the difference in group names, they have the same benefits of Dustling Clans. These types of convergences are, however, less likely to occur because of the more solitary nature of foxes and serpents.
Forming a clan costs the price of the subforum, payable to the guild.

What are the benefits of forming a clan?
A male or female leader can breed additional times with any of the males or females in the clan. However, dusts still can grow old and be unable to successfully breed. So, in other words, the three-breeding-rule does not apply to females and the male leader in each clan-- but potions (IF available) are still needed for same-gender breeding. The three breeding rule still applies to all followers in the clan.
