BONUS: LINES Note Cjaalan is NOT smiling. He has to do that all the time for work. His face hurts.

BONUS: INDIVIDUAL IMAGES

BONUS: Mark actually looks like this Post-Ending, but I wanted to draw him like all his other art for the chart to prevent confusion

Gets some of his melanin back. Only some because he spends a lot of time in the Undercity. BONUS: DARKMODE Ehehehehehe

BONUS: YAPPING

The Corvid Parents Their parents are Kiléans born in Kilé, but unbeknownst to the two of them only half-Kiléan by blood. It's unknown what the other halves are. Due to dire circumstances, they have to give Marksman and Jackdaw (not their birth names) up for adoption. Some ten years later, when they're better off, they have Cjaalan. They never learn what happened to their first two sons, and never see them again.

Marksman Marksman is unaware he's only half-Kiléan, assuming himself fully so. In his "main" Eventuality, he returns (with Tharael in tow) to Kilé to 'deal with' his remaining Family (the cult that raised him and Jackdaw).

Jackdaw Jackdaw is also unaware he's only half-Kiléan. In the Marksman's "main" Eventuality, and indeed most others, he's quite dead. Usually by the Marksman's hand. In the Eventuality where Knives exists, however, he did not leave the cult until the wars/Cleansing had been resolved. He killed the rest of their Family, travelled to Enderal on the off-chance that's where his brother fled to, and eventually they reunite. He lives in Duneville, finding Ark far too cold and the guards far too nosy. He's forced into the role of reluctantly indulgent rich uncle - he assumed that when he said he would be so delighted to see his niece, he was only being polite... Knives, having an ex-Rhalaim and an ex-assassin for fathers, is extremely good at getting her way with people who are usually extremely good at getting their own. Tharael and the Marksman accidentally raise a master manipulator, and Jackdaw doesn't stand a chance. "Uncle, you're taking me shopping. I want a new tunic from the Qyranese merchants. Of course, if your schedule doesn't allow, I can always tell my father that you tried to poison me. Who will he believe?"

"Cousin" Cjaalan It was never kept a secret from Cjaalan that he had/has two older brothers. When he's of age, he apprentices in the art of jocularity and becomes a jester. After his parents pass away, he leaves Kilé to seek his fortune. He meets the Marksman in Ark, and thereafter (as Cjaalan moves on to find work in Nehrim) they write to each other. He introduces himself as his "Cousin", as some deep animal instinct tells him not to call himself "brother" in front of the Marksman and his terrifying Aeterna husband (?). For some reason. In the Eventuality where Knives exists, he knows of her existence through the Marksman's letter, but never manages to return to Enderal to see her (not for any reason other than being very busy/not having the coin). He sends her cards on her birthdays.

Tharael I know Tharael's page on the wiki states he's half-Aeterna. I'm under the impression that that's due to the game not having a separate distinction between Aeterna NPCs and the half-Aeterna the player can be. I consider him to be fully Aeterna. Please don't correct me if I'm wrong, I don't want to redo the chart 🥺
