The permanent markings are the same for everyone within the same clan. The clans do not have names, they have patterns. There's 4 clans, so there are 4 types of markings. They're fairly basic, if they have markings on their arms it means they have tails. No markings on the arms means no tails. Though, you'd be able to tell if they had a tail or not just by looking, they're not really hidden. The Painted Markings however are much more complicated. You can pick between the colors Blue Red and White, and there's a 4th color that not many people choose and it's a Purple-ish Brown. They all mean something different, the colors and patterns are picked at the "wedding" of the volks. The Volks getting married choose together and paint the pattern on each other as their version of a wedding ring or vow. Their kids (if they choose to have some) also have that pattern until they create a new family on their own. White means you value power/strength, Red means you value leadership/loyalty, Blue means you value wit/intelligence and the brown means you value individuality/rebellion. Only those who have decided not to live among the clans wear this color.

The pattens and placement of the paint also has meaning! If there is paint on your eyelids, eye bags, inner corner, etc it means you are single, if there is no paint, you are taken or not looking at the moment. If you have paint on your lips you consider your family important, if you have paint on your nose it means you are peaceful and not looking to fight but you will defend yourself. If you have paint on your ears or upper cheek bones then you are a recognized warrior, it's like a rank, the more prominent the paint the higher up you are. If you have two lines or shapes (just stuff) on your chin it means you are an individual, if you have 1 line or shape on your chin it means you are 1 of many, or you have siblings. I must add that these paints are like last names and that the permanent ones are more like...... communities or like ethnicity.

Volk are very family oriented, they all live very close together and have a strong sense of loyalty. Of course, much like everything else in the world, there's outliers who don't necessarily think like the majority. They either form their own groups together, or find enjoyment and fulfillment elsewhere. Volk have different ways of categorizing themselves, they express this through the markings they paint on themselves and the permanent markings which they receive through different means depending on which "clan" they belong to. Each of the leaders has a different way of determining who's worthy and who's not. Those without the permanent markings have yet to prove themselves or have done something to not be accepted into the clan, for most it's embarrassing not to have these when they are mature adults. Others couldn't care less.

The 4 clans are led by Naal, Shakir, Carantok and Darko. Carantok has held this position for the longest amount of time but Naal is the most respected and leads the largest of the clans. Now, I have to make it clear, this is not an uchiha clan dilemma, the clan members are not all related. Like I mentioned before, it's more like a community which categorize themselves into clans. The clans are usually strict about who they let into their clans because they like to maintain a peaceful atmosphere with no problems at all. Some volk, do not fit into this mold so they are kicked out. These sorts of volk move out to another country where there is a small, unofficial clan of volks who, either got kicked out or are descendants of those who were kicked out. This clan is semi nomadic and lives in Varden, which is large golden plains with lots of roaming land.
