Hi all. I'm looking into making a character who was raised in Islay, but I have a question:
1. I'm a bit confused about fosterage in the Clans. Is it just a "child A goes to family B" thing where they're raised in one household their entire life, just not necessarily their parents'? Or are the children often rotated among families (i.e. a few years in household A, a few months in household B, a few more years in household C, and so on)? From the way the wiki is phrased it seems like maybe both, and I could see how each would create a sense of extended family...
Surprisingly, that's actually the only thing I don't get. Uh. So far.

a bit of both. long-term fosterage is fairly uncommon, but it does occur, sometimes for political reasons, sometimes in cases where parents are unable to look after their offspring for one reason or another. hope this answers your question.
