Clan Chief
The term given to the highest ranking member of dwarven clans. The Clan Chief has the power of full autonomy over the ruling of the clan but historically many Clan Chiefs had at least a couple of advisors to aid them with the various aspects of ruling. The Clan Chief is akin to a king but whereas a king has a line of succession, a Clan Chief can be challenged by a member of their clan for their right to rule by traditional contest, which vary for each dwarven clan.
