Intro

Lucan Dux of VDK.
  • The Duchy Von Drachenklaue, or VDK, is a confederation of 37 separate households (or Hauses) that have united under the house of Duke Lucan and Duchess Yana Von Drachenklaue. Most (not all) of the Sub Hauses have adopted the green/white/black of the "tagma" as their field device, and fight as a formidable unit as part of the 1st Division of the EK's Northern Army . Members of VDK can be found from New Hampshire to California to Texas and Florida, though most are settled in the Kingdom of the East.
  • Von Drachenklaue literally translates as "the dragon's claws", as it was born from Master Feral's household: Silver Dragon.
