This was asked elsewhere and I cannot find the answer. Here is the question.
I've always been a little confused about how to differentiate between clans and certain keywords. I know that any personality with "Ratling", "Naga", "Ninja", ect. listed as a keyword would be considered part of the Ratling, Naga, or Ninja clan respectively for stronghold purposes. But it gets a little confusing when certain cards ask for a "Ratling", "Naga", etc. target. For example, I'm playing a Ratling stronghold with Lady of the Forest Sensei. Would my Fox personalities also be considered a "Ratling" or "Ratling Personality" when using things like Ratling Archers or Ratling Hordes?

Yes, they would.
