Problem is that got used for the Seeker/Keeper break.
How so?
When you start the game and make a Miqote it asks you to choose your character's clan which would be Keeper and Seeker.
Oh, that's right. That's an unfortunate use of the word.
Yeah that sucks. They should have used the word "kin", or something like that, in character creator. I think clan is not the best word for that.
I am still going to use the word clan for my Keeper's two-family group (I'm not the only one). If I am forced to get technical because of the word used in character creator then I will use the word sub-clan.
