As an established and respected Clan member, you can rely on certain benefits that clan members are provided. Your fellow Clan members will provide you with lodging and food if necessary, and pay for your funeral if needed. In some cities and towns, a clan hall offers a central place to meet other members of your clan , which can be a good place to meet potential patrons, allies, or hirelings.

Guilds often wield tremendous political power. If you are accused of a crime, your Clan will support you if a good case can be made for your innocence or the crime is justifiable. You can also gain access to powerful political figures through the Clan if you are a member in good standing. Such connections might require the donation of money or magic items to the guild’s coffers.
