 Clans are a group of players following a common theme or goal and are a 
 very important part of Aardwolf.  Most clans provide for a limited means
 of player-killing (PK, see 'help pk'); some are for the community and do
 not take part in this aspect (see 'help nopk').

 Clans provide many benefits to members of that clan:

 * Their own area, complete with donation, jail, and recall rooms, as well
   as clan shortcut exits to far-away areas
 * Clan morgues, where corpses and players appear upon death
 * Clan-only skills, spells, and equipment, including armor and potions
 * Separate 'community' bank accounts and optional tax rates for gold and
   quest points that all members can donate to, used for clan purchases
 * Private clan-only communication via channels and notes/boards.

 A list of current clans and pseudo-clans (see 'help loner' and 'help
 outcast') can be found by typing 'clist'.

 You may find information on a clan in a few ways.  The most basic way is
 by typing 'clist' and then 'help <short>' (e.g., 'help boot').  Clans also
 often have more detailed/updated information on their web pages, which you
 can see by typing 'claninfo <short>'.

 Clans have their own requirements and their own application process in
 order for a player to join their ranks. If you are interested in joining a
 clan, you will likely need to visit their website or contact their members
 to find out what is required of you.

 Joining a clan is not something to be undertaken lightly; once in a clan, 
 the only way to leave is to become an outcast (see 'help outcast').

 Other clan-related commands include:

 * clandonate/clanqpdonate - Donate gold/quest points to the clan's account.
 * claninfo - Show rankings and leaders of a clan.
 * clanadmin - Various clanleader commands/settings.

 See the help files on each for more information.

 For a list of clan upgrade options, type 'contents clan', or check
 out the Clans section of the Builder's website, listed in 'help www'.
