This information is as imparted to Artemis Ma'Forr by the Sorceress Hu San. The Sorcerer Clans of the far east are dominated by Sorcerer Bloodlines, with pedigree being placed at a high premium. Each Clan can trace its ancestry back to specific Dragon Progenitors. It is known that Hu San belonged to the Blue Cloud Dragon Clan, which is a bloodline of Blue Dragon heritage. Pure bloodlines apparently from the Nobility of these Clans, adn Hu San often superior attitude (not to say disregard of ordinary people) adds some credence to this. It is interesting that she regards many oof the Treegum Sorcerers as 'mongrels', and seems appalled by the fact that they cannot trace their bloodlines and heritage.
As Hu San tells it, each Clan controls their own territories and resources: the Blue Cloud Dragon Clan apparently exists in a cold mountainous area with rich mineral deposits, though whether the other Clans exist in a similar environment is unknown. Assassination of siblings, treachery are all common within the Clan Nobility as they vie for power and influence, as it is with the Clans who vie with one another. Hu San was allegedly a refugee from one such fallout; at the age of 16 (having already killed one brother, one sister and a cousin)she was connected to a skirmishing unit in a Clan Battle in which The Blue Cloud Dragons were battling a rival Clan. The Clan was allegedly betrayed by her cousin, who turned his cavalry against the rear of their own troops: the scheme apparently being one whereby he betrayed his own Clan in order to gain control of it...Hu San and a sibling are thought to have fled. Her (unnamed) sister fled to the Southern Kingdoms (the nature of these is unknown, but Jack Lee is thought to originate from them), while Hu San and her Bodyguard fled west for 18 months, faking their own deaths (with appropriate corpses) several times. The current status of the Clan is unknown, as Hu Sans information is now several years old. The Sorceress however seems well versed in the lore of Assassins and Diplomacy, and always shows a ruthless interest in visitors from the Far East, possibly for purposes of self preservation.
