Online:Clannfear
Clannfear are aggressive, quick, and dangerous bestial Daedra. They have a small frill, plated spikes on their spines, and a deadly tri-tipped tail. They are flock inclined—they will work together to bring down enemies—but they are still deadly individually. They have bird-like movements, but retain an almost brutish quality to their attacks.
They have a chance to drop the Clannfear Leather Strapping antiquity lead for the Spaulder of Ruin.
