The "Mother" (sometimes clan mother, "Matron" or "Matriarch") honorific was also applied to leaders of Dathomiri witches clans, including certain Nightsister covens. Such leaders included Gethzerion, the founder of the Nightsisters, Mother Talzin, a Nightsister Shaman during the Clone Wars, and Mother Rell, oldest member of the Singing Mountain Clan.
