The Ancients sparsely recall when the Nyokans first came to the Dwarven Clanns, at first, kept as pets, though they quickly made themselves invaluable to the clans they served until they permeated throughout the Clanns before they sought to build their own clan, still dedicated in service to the Ancients, however holding much greater control over their fate. In this, they forged the Clann of Nyantov.

Warriors are the forefront of the Clanns, and those of Nyantov are no exception, having espoused the secrets of the Clanns' advanced technology, they are absolutely vital in protecting the Nyantov's claims across the galaxy. In this, the Nyantov Clann has become a massive force salvaging ancient drifting hulks and stripping worlds for mineral wealth while making a great deal of exceptional craft for the Dwarven Kin.
