Clan Burrock

Background

          Clan Burrock was absorbed by Clan Star Adder in 3059. For many years, Clan Burrock conspired with the Dark Caste for its own purposes, a secret the Burrocks managed to keep from the other Clans until late 3058. When the Star Adders brought the matter to the Grand Council's attention, the Council declared a Trial of Absorption. The Burrock's long time enemies, Clan Blood Spirit, moved against them simultaneously with the official Star Adder absorption, prompting the Burocks and Star Adders to work in concert to defeat the interlopers.

          Many Clan Burrock units, appalled by their leaders collusion with the Dark Caste, staged pre-emptive batchalls against the Star Adders, putting up only token resistance before being incorporated by that Clan. With the exception of the battles against Clan Blood Spirit, this was the least violent Absorption in Clan history, the bulk of Clan Burrock remains intact as part of Clan Star Adder.
