Named for a genetically engineered predator, Clan Jade Falcon has historically ranked among the most powerful and active Clans. Aggressive and tenacious, this Clan dominates above others in its ability to advance its own agenda without losing sight of Nicholas Kerensky's teachings. Staunch traditionalists, the Falcons were the driving force behind the development of the Crusader philosophy.

The jade falcon itself is a large bird that was genetically altered from a Terran peregrine to live in the jungles of Eden. It has a distinctive, shimmering, emerald-green plumage and an ear-piercing cry. Be wary lest you become its prey.
