Kin

Kin are part of the everyday population of the Bloody Flanks. They are the ones who do general labour, and do not participate in combat.
== Overview ==
Kin are essentially the backbone of the Bloody Flanks. They make up the general population, and all non-combat ranks fall into this. Many members of the Kin might take on many tasks, or focus on one job. It depends on how difficult a job is, and how experienced an equine might be. Without the Kin, the Bloody Flanks would not be able to function. They are equally as important, if not more so, than the Reavers and Sawbones. Their jobs may not seem as difficult or as exciting, but they matter all the same.  Kin help to provide food and resources to the clan. 
The most common careers for the Kin are weather witches and merchants. Weather witches are important in any capacity, and they help dictate if it is safe for patrols to go to certain areas. They do not work high on the mountains, but instead make do where they are and observe any weather patterns that appear. Merchants will go undercover into smaller towns to try and barter for various goods. This can be a tricky job for those who aren’t good at deception.
As the Flanks become more settled, they are able to start farming as well, and so some horses are setting up small farmsteads where they can. These plots of land are often small and scattered, to avoid detection from Raiders. The main bulk of food that the Flanks consume comes from trading, but they are hopeful they can start producing more of their own food. 
Many members of the Kin also help to gather various forest foods, such as mushrooms and plants, as well as herbs for the Sawbones. There are also members who are builders, and some crafters are also slowly popping up as resources become more plentiful.
