Enigma

General Info

Enigma's Primogen is Magnita with BruXinha as Primarch. A complete list of their members can be found here Their official site can be found here

Enigma clan is one of the original clans and was founded by Astley and RogueShawn. The clan is founded in the principles of family, unity, and honor.

Enigma is one of the largest clans in the kingdoms, yet has one of the most rigorous admission processes. There are no applications for Enigma. One must either be sponsored into the clan by two established members or admitted through the guide process.

History

In the early days of King Yuri, long before the Great Shift, two honorable kindred of Heavens Clan approached their Primogen Wasse to make a request. These kindred, Astley and RogueShawn sought to form a new clan based on family, honor and unity. From this ideal was born the Clan of Enigma. Astley served as first Primogen and saw the clan through its early development. Unfortunately, his thirst for knowledge called him away to study in a foreign land. Wolfen, a trusted council-member was named the new Primogen of Enigma. Astley then left to seek his fortune, though he still remembers his home and comes to visit. Wolfen led Enigma through a stage of growth and change. As the clan grew, new rules and policies were made. In general, the clan prospered. Wolfen also felt the pull of adventure and far away lands, and would often go exploring for moons at a time. During these absences, Troll, Wolfen's General and right-hand man would oversee the clan. It was only a matter of time until the Sacred clan sword and Emblem were handed down to Troll, along with the powers of the office. Troll spent much of his time as Primogen reorganizing the clan government and keeping the ever-growing clan running smoothly as possible. Unfortunately, Troll's primogency was cut short. The Gods decided that Troll had abused a subpath spell and Troll was arrested. Although the Clan protested, Troll stepped down as Primogen. His anger at the Gods for this injustice caused him and his family to leave the Kingdom. Before leaving, Troll left the Primogency to me, Omi. I was very inexperienced, and still quite young. Frequent leadership changes had left many members skeptical, and to be sure, I have made many mistakes. I feel that now, however, Enigma is being ushered into a new age. The membership is solid, and is working as one to see Enigma succeed. Astley and RogueShawn would be proud of what Enigma is today.

Enigma Anthem

Enigma, steadfast as the mountains,

Ageless as the sea,

Will lead the way and stand as one,

Our strength in unity!

The Mighty Oak grows strong,

And cries Enigma's name.

With great emotion, proud devotion,

Praises we proclaim!

Our kindred, true, will stand by you

Through ev'ry endeavour,

With honour, truth, and bravery.

Enigma forever!

Music composed by David Federman (Sailortaurus)

Clan Motto: Unity

Our clan motto for a long time has been Strength in Unity. But what does that mean really? Obviously, it means that by acting as one, our clan will be stronger... but what does it mean to you and I individually as kindred? Well, our clan is made of many, many diverse people. We obviously don't all think alike, look alike, or do the same things. How then can we have unity?

The answer to that comes back to one of our main clan principles: Respect. By having respect for one another, and respect for our clan as a whole, we can present a united front to the kingdom; we then have unity. It also means standing behind our leader, and those that work hard to make the clan function.

I'm not saying we shouldn't or won't have disagreements. Diverse opinions and intelligent minds make this clan great! We don't all have to love or even like one another; in a clan of our size, it's difficult if not impossible. But we should always grant each other the gift of respect; after all, every one of you kindred *do* have one thing in common with you... a love for this clan.

I have loved this clan for many, many years. In some ways it is a very different clan than the one I first joined, but this is also a very different kingdom from when I first moved here. It is still the greatest clan in the kingdom, and my family. And I know everyone feels the same.

Get involved with your clan, with your family! This clan truly becomes great when all of its kindred pitch in to make it so!
