Timmok Orgaal is the unmarked leader of the Orgaal clan, one of the smaller clans with close ties to the Velderans. While Daric d'Velderan wishes to see the house's business expand so it can help others, many of his associates have far fewer scruples and pursue business success to the exclusion of all other valus. Timmok's warriors work covertly to support the Velderan clan, not only against external threats to business but internal competition.
