Kilrathi Clans

Kilrathi clans, just how many are there? I know that there are eight main clans, and many smaller offshoots, but does anybody have a compiled list of all the clans mentioned?
 
First, the easy part... the eight noble clans:

Caxki
Ki'ra
Kiranka
Kur'u'tak (^1)
Qarg
Ragitagha (^2)
Sihkag
Sutaghi

(^1) - Also spelled without the apostrophes, "Kurutak".
(^2) - All eight noble clans contain 'nar', except some instances of Ragitagha where no modifier is present (ie, Najji Ragitagha)

Then, those that are certainly clans because they have a 'nar':

Dhollas
Dhores
Ghorah Khar
Hhallas
Ja'targk
Khirg
Kulrag
N'Ryllis
Poghath
Som'mers
T'Agg A'Bren
Ta'hal
Tsahl
Val
Vharr
Volles

It's implied that each planet has a clan (nar Ghorah Khar, nar Hhallas), though -- so take that into account...

Then those that are probably clans despite being 'nameless' (like Ragitagha sometimes is):

Kaligara
Jhorrad

It's known that, at least in the case of Dawx Jhorrad, that the lack of a nar means that said Kilrathi is a commoner.

Then there's the 'other' modifiers from False Colors... which are a bit confusing.

We have 'lan', 'dai', 'ko', 'jaq' and 'lak' used in place of 'nar'.

Furthermore, we have 'dai' and 'lak' used together in the *same* name (Ukar dai Ragark lak Haka) meaning that they don't indicate clan. To confuse this further, Largka Cakg dai Nokhtak and Murragh Cakg dai Nokhtak both *lack* the 'lak' (try saying that three times fast).

Ragark was supposedly trying to start the 'Haka Dynasty', so it's reasonable to assume that his 'clan' is the Haka. You might referr to Largka and Murragh's family as "Cakg dai Nokhtak" or simply "Nokhtak".

Finally, we see these others:

lan Dorv
lan Mraal
ko Lannis
Jaq Rhang
 
LOAF is simply one big WC encyclopedia just waiting to be consulted... among other things of course. :)
 
indeed indicating that Loaf is either German of Austrian from the "von" rather than dutch with the "van". Both of the titles are used to demonstrate that one is of noble birth

LAN, not Ian. :)

On the other hand, what about Kirha when he became part of Hunter's clan:) You could probably use that as an excuse to slip ian in there :D

This person rules because:

1) He's one of the best soccer players that were ever born.
2) His first name is Marco, just like me. :D
 
Pah, if it hadn't been for his ankle, he'd still be around playing... :)

But say, the best player in the world ever, is not far from your description. Do you want to talk about him? He's Argentinean.. :p

Yeah! Let's talk about a soccer player! After all, that's what a Wing Commander Chat Zone is for, isn't it?


They could be talking about Zero-gravity soccer, and other Wing COmmander sports.
