The Lines. Some long-lived founders are building dynasties: dozens of living descendants so far, on course for thousands. These Lines behave like clans or small nations and own whole habitats. Their votes are still too few to matter; for now they count through their wealth. Their founders are still alive and still in charge, among the first renewed, and the richest bought their way past every ration.
