What Are Clans?

Clans (also called Lineages) are family bloodlines that give your character unique buffs and abilities. You're assigned a random clan when you create your character.

Special Clans (8 total)

  • • Provide stat buffs (+10 to +30)
  • • Some have devil contract synergies
  • • Rare to obtain randomly

Common Clans (55+ total)

  • • No stat buffs at all
  • • Purely cosmetic name
  • • Most players start with these

Purchase Clan Reroll

150 Robux for 1 reroll, or 399 Robux for 3x bundle (better value). Available in the shop.

3

Use the Reroll

The reroll gives you a random new clan. You could get any clan including Common ones.

4

Repeat if Needed

If you didn't get a Special clan, you'll need to purchase another reroll. RNG-based.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change my clan later?

Yes, you can use a Clan Reroll (150 Robux) to get a new random clan. However, you can't choose which clan you get - it's random.

Is it worth rerolling from a Common clan?

If you're planning to focus on contracts, yes. A Special clan can give you significant advantages. If you're casual, Common clans work fine.

What's the chance of getting a Special clan?

There are 8 Special clans out of 63+ total clans. Roughly ~12% chance to get a Special clan on any reroll.
