Barntar would be the obvious candidate, just to add a little fuel to the fire; they share one known "role-reversal" myth (though maybe just known by title, I can't recall offhand). I can just about imagine a clan set up along those lines, though it'd be a little Weird and Wacky, all right. Maybe more credible would be a large bloodline (or "sub-clan" as I'm tempted to start saying, given the on-going damage being done to the former
term).
