Diver Clan

The Diver Clan (not to be confused with the Otter Tribe) is a group of otters living in a pond of CHI in the land below Chima, and a member of the Pond Clans. They are one of the primary clans in the fan season Beyond Chima: Tales from the Pond.

Physiology
The Diver Clan is based primarily on river otters. They have sleek fur in shades of brown or gray, short whiskers, and strong tails. They are naturally athletic and skilled swimmers, and they can hold their breath for half an hour. They eat mainly fish, with shellfish being considered a delicacy.

Culture
The Diver Clan is seen as the unofficial leaders of the Pond Clans, as they are strong and quick to defend the other tribes. However, they have a rather lax attitude and sense of fun as well. Young otters engage in a variety of sports and games, and even the adults will sometimes settle disputes through contests of skill.

The leader of the Diver Clan is known as the Grand Diver. The Grand Diver can be either male or female, but their partner often acts as an advisor if they have one. After the previous Grand Diver passes or retires, a new leader is chosen through a series of contests including swimming, fighting, fishing, and working with the other clans.

Technology
The main colors of the Diver Clan are dark brown and tan, with standard blue CHI-lights.

Common Diver Clan weapons are really just reinforced versions of their fishing gear, and include nets and spears. They are also known to create large and overly complex apparatuses out of stone to crack shellfish, though these are too bulky to be used in combat (some otters will try anyway).

None of the Pond Clans have much need for transportation, but the otters have the most advanced vehicles out of all of the clans due to their love for sports and racing. The most common is a CHI-powered hovercraft sled built for two otters (or one otter and a large barrel of fish) that can run over both land and water.
