Do you guys plan on your family having some sorta dark secret that’s paranormal? Like vampirism or some shit

We have inklings. I was thinking I witnessed that and it changed me. I didn’t see the culprit, but it was a winged humanoid feasting.

The adults know, like the higher ups i guess you can say, our father didn't wanna use THAT for power but our Uncle was like LOL FUCK IT DUDE! We have sus people in the surrounding towns and homes fearing us and me and him are like.. Is it cause we are ugly?? Lol a brand, a mark of the beast, Berserk reference

Was your grandpappy a vampire too? I was thinking we leave that up to you Shawn. We don’t know how long the legacy of this secret has been going on.

Ramie: I was thinking that while I was living with mom after we left, she told me. And when you and I met later on, I tell you. About them having some kind of dark power.

Were there people part of the family that sided with your uncle wanting to fight with the King?

How long ago was that?

The war ended 3 years ago, the royal family just died about half a year-a year ago, and with this death the realm was splintered

Uncle Maliken obviously with his wife encouraging it.

Maybe your uncle, the head of the house, saw an opportunity in whatever outcome (being occupation or independence) to expand his power, so he did not raise his bannermen. But there maybe is some sorta schism in the house because of this decision? And because of this, people are killing eachother? I guess it depends on how big your family is

How long was the war going on for?   15 years

Enlisted?
I could've went awol and ran away. Took my armor off and faked my death? Completely up to you dude. I’d have no idea what happened after I left with mama. After the time I broke my blade and killed a man with my hands I was like whoa.. This changed my outlook on life. Back to the thought of mortality i had as a teen after the forest incident. And then I was like ya im out this army dude, I need peace in my life monk time 8-)
That’s when you went and joined a monastery??

How big would the family be besides just your dad and your uncle?

Thinking about it.

Depending on the size, could impact on the possibility of many members siding with your dad, little inter-dynasty conflict or some shit, and with this your uncle would cull the unwanted, your dad being one of em

Again, we have inklings. Rumors from townsfolk, people often going missing, a lot of folks up late at night in the keep, stuff like that.
Maybe the birthmark or w.e it is on your hands you guys have is some sorta curse? Related to having a vampire bloodline or just a mark i dunno

Valentin wasn’t the same after that incident, he came home shaken up and quiet as the sun started to rise. A small discreet search party went out looking for him under torchlight.
