From the manual.

In King of Dragon Pass, you play generations in the life of a barbarian clan. Every decision you make in guiding your clan becomes part of your clan’s saga, and echoes in the clan’s future adventures. As in real life, some of your choices have immediate consequences, but others won’t come back to haunt you for years or decades of play.

In one crucial sense, King of Dragon Pass is a roleplaying game: your best chance to succeed is to get into the spirit of playing an Orlanthi clan. Cunning calculations of risk and gain will take you only so far. If you do not accompany such stratagems with a sense of what it means to be a fair and powerful monarch, like Orlanth himself, your clan will go down to defeat.

Your eventual goal is to become king of a tribe and then king of all Dragon Pass. Military might aids you in this quest, but military strength alone won’t suffice. You will need allies, magical blessings, the favor of the gods, and the courage to follow Orlanth’s least-understood example: the willingness to try a Big New Idea coupled with the power and charisma to make that idea work.

Roleplaying Your Clan: Although you can have a lot of fun playing KoDP in a variety of styles, you’re not likely to fully succeed until you get into the spirit of acting like the king of an Orlanthi tribe. 20th-century ethics and morality won’t take you to the end of the game. Neither will acting like Arnold Schwarzenegger in a fur loincloth.
