The Halunemni lineage traces its descent through Haluma Sopori, Nemnu's biological daughter with her husband Visku. (The lineage name draws from Haluma's name, but also from Ombesh haluli 'to purify'). The Sopori never forgot this claim, despite years apart from life at Nemnosti, during which they were mostly living in northern Khutu. Finally, in 638, Lovos Sopori, a son of the Sopori hengi at the time, declared himself to be the head of the Halunemni, and his descendants, as well as some of the Sopori who supported him, joined his new ifti. Members of the lineage almost always take and use udul nicknames among one another.

There have been only three hengge over the more than a century since the lineage was founded:

  • Lovos "Root" (609-688, r. 638-688)
  • Maigharinda "Huntress" (659-750, r. 688-750), granddaughter of Lovos
  • Kufun "Hazard" (717-, r. 750-), grandson of Maigharinda

During the reign of Maigharinda, she moved several of her clan members to Naftusa and built an iftibal there, and her grandson Kufun, the current hengi, makes his home there still. During Maigharinda's reign, tensions were very high between the Halunemni and the Nemni. During this time, they began to call Nemnu 'The Crone', Nemnosti 'The Crone's Gap' (which is as rude as it sounds), and Nemni lineage members 'ospers' (after the name taken by their hengge). Under Kufun, tensions between the Nemni and Halunemni have been lessened somewhat, and Kufun has some friends in Naftusa who are Nemnu's acolytes.
