Khergit
The 'Roan Horses' - Valuable well Disciplined Warriors - Historically One of the Largest and Oldest Clans, now Shrunken Over Time With a Laundry List of Complaints over Injustices Dealt by Smaller Clans - Competing with Arkit - Brave but Nervous and Resentful
Tier 4
Mesui is leader of the Khergit. Once one of the largest clans in the Khuzait confederacy, they suffered many losses during Urkhun Khan's conquests and their lands were subsequently targeted by other tribes. Mesui has ruthlessly defended her clan's rights, and frequently complained about the injustices suffered by smaller clans that she says have shed blood for the khanate without reaping any rewards.
This clan is part of the Khuzait Khanate.
The Khergit, or Roan Horses, were one of the first peoples to be subjugated by Urkhun. Although assimilated into his confederacy by force, they proved themselves some of his most valuable warriors, and were rewarded with extensive lands in his new conquests. War however took a heavy toll of the clan's males, and ten years ago the Arkit made a bid for their territories. Mesui, sister of a slain noyan and part of a long tradition of steppe warrior-women, led the Khergit's counter-attack. She continues to rule a clan nervous about its brush with extinction, and resentful of the Urkhunait for doing little to help them.
Matriarch - female, widow, very conscious of her clan's brush with extinction
