For the lineup part:

I'm a big fan of the hc ever since the first Harpy Express stream of The Marquise being Scott's sire. Like yeah that would explain why Scott Goldsmith is Like That™.

And then I like combining Luanne's lore of Louis' sire being his mother Vedette and Owen's lore of Louis possibly being a Goldsmith (but unaffiliated with the coven itself).

But that leaves an empty spot between Vedette and Scott, so I decided to go with Lizzie cause that felt fun and fitting! It was between her, Tango, Mumbo, and Impulse but Lizzie felt like she fit the best :D

Going based on the approximate years we know for Scott and Owen I basically just spaced everybody out every 100 years. Technically Vedette and Louis would both be from the 1400s, but given Vedette kind of disappears from the picture by Owen's time I just labeled Louis as 1500s so each fledgling is a nice even 100 years apart.

The outfits are regionally inspired! For the most part - Louis and Owen's are mostly just their canon outfits, with Louis' having a lil touch of 1500-1600s Polish mostly in the overcoat. Oakhurst is described as "Vaguely Eastern European" but in my research I found a town that works exceptionally well in fitting the lore and geography of Oakhurst in Poland (Olkusz! It was a royal town in the 1200s and mostly populated by nobles. It's also on a river and next to a desert and the town is known for its silver mines! Including apparently a legend that the devil created the desert to bury the silver. I'm adding that as a legend to my personal Oakhurst hcs). So I mostly researched Polish fashion across the middle ages into the 1700s. And then the Marquise and Scott are more Western Europe because presumably they come before Oakhurst was founded. I say historically-inspired because I was absolutely hodge-podge-ing things together while also trying to keep adjacent to canon and usual outfits as much as possible to keep them recognizable. I do medieval reenactment as a hobby so this kind of research and throwing things together is typical for me lmao. That's why I did the outfits as well. But I will not claim any sort of accuracy. Vedette also only has like half an official appearance so her's was also very fun to hash out.
