Yiling Mo Clan (Reverance of the Gods)

The **Yiling Mo Clan** (夷陵莫氏, *Yílíng Mò Shì*) is a cultivation clan based in Central Yiling, Northern Burial Mounds. The current leader is Mo Xuanyu.

## Uniform

The clan uniform consist of glacier-silver and white robes with incantations stitched into the threads of the outer jacket to add speed and agility to the physical attributes of the user along with protecting them from low-level spiritual attacks.

Members of the direct Yiling Mo bloodline are permitted to wield swords with glacier-silver and white jade green-coloured tassels with the Yiling Mo's official Fleur-de-lis motif sewn onto them.

Guest disciples and other associated parties carry and wield swords with ordinary glacier silver and white jade green-coloured tassels without any ornamental decorations on them. The sword tassel has two meanings; to "uphold duties", and to "declare one's intentions". As such, very few are permitted by the owner to touch, remove or examine the sword tassel, unless they are either family, cultivation partners, and or more rarely sworn siblings with the sword tassel's owner.

## Practices

* Like many clans, Yiling Mo teaches a unique sword style, described as "graceful, yet stern".
* It's members have extensive training in medical procedures and most are highly trained medics, due to forced necessity due to the proximity of the clan to the Burial Mounds' center.
* All members of the Yiling Mo dedicate their lives to serving the wishes of the common good and are highly respected by the people of Yiling for their willingness to commit to Night Hunts for multiple months (at the time) or even years in order to exterminate monsters, and supernatural creatures whom hunt the common people.
* Punishments for breaking the rules include closed door cultivation, seclusion, rigerous re-training, amongst other things, and teaching new disciples the rules.
* The Yiling Mo are healers by nature and as a result, their food is extremely medicinal in taste and strictly vegetarian, allowing them to stay lean and extremely fit.
* They have an abnormal sleeping schedule and most of the Yiling Mo are still awake by five in the morning, due to their abnormal working hours.
* Female and male cultivators are trained together, sleep in the same rooms together, and have meals together. This is to avoid discrimination between the male and the females, allowing for better intregration and teamwork.
* The sword tassel is a sacred object to the Yiling Mo Clan, with the concept of their sword tassels being a means of not only "declaring one's intentions" to their "fated person" (命定之人, *mìngdìng zhīrén*) but also of a solemn confirmation of their duties towards the common people.
