 ====== Punla (Family) ======
 The smallest social group within the [[faction:hidden_sun_clan]] is a Punla (Pūn-lă), or //family//. The plural form of the word is Punlai (Pūn-lăē), meaning families.
+===== Creation =====
+A new family is made through the [[faction:hidden_sun_clan:rituals:sumanapa_punla]] ritual.
 ===== Membership =====
-A Punla consists of retired elders, married spouses, unmarried adult individuals, children, and [[WP>Retainer|retainers]]. By tradition, the head of a family is the eldest member regardless of gender. Bear in mind that a person does not have to be a blood relation to join a family. Families can adopt new members freely, even without the bonds of marriage, though unmarried adult individuals are encouraged by the culture to marry and form a family of their own.

+==== Family Leadership Roles ====
+A family is led by the Punla-Ta'a, or the Speaker for the Family. By tradition, this role is filled by the eldest member of the family regardless of their gender. The family democratically elects a Punla-To'â, or Assistant for the Family, who assists the Speaker and fills in for them in the event of their absence. These leadership roles are considered [[faction:hidden_sun_clan:rank_position#fabota|Fabota]], or positions, and they are respected and culturally important.
+=== Voting ===
+Every family in the Clan, whether they are part of a Greater or Lesser [[faction:hidden_sun_clan:house]], has a single vote as part of the [[faction:hidden_sun_clan:government#vonai_jodau_tajo|Vonai Jodau'tajo (Thoughts of the People)]] system. How each family votes depends on their own traditions and preferences.
