#albrand

Basically, living with Gunter and Violeta as your psuedo-parental figures, as well as having your father who is still very sane really goes a long way to make you better adjusted, I would think.

Marius made fun of Lockie all the time for being a bit of a scaredy cat like Xander when they were kids and consequently got in trouble for it. Meanwhile, Diantha and Lockie were cooking buddies with Peri. To be honest, the Albrands were a bit of their own little mini-family before half of them died.

For economical purposes, the Albrand just live in Windmire. Most noble houses own some place to stay in for when they have to visit the capital.

Highly likely. He probably ended up fighting a lot of his own family, which is probably why he’s so difficult with Xander and the rest of the kids. He used to be a lot nicer when his two daughters (Katerina and Violeta) were still alive. Now he’s all about that tough love. Still a big asshole tho.

A large noble family like Albrand has multiple branches as well as vassal houses to contend with amongst themselves, so that’s a bunch of lesser factions capable of banding together and causing absolute havoc on each other. So think lots of cousins fighting each other because their parents say so, or they just don’t like whoever’s sitting on the throne.

I also think it'd be equally fun and tragic that their father Augustine had a twin, and killed him during the civil war. And the drama if said brother was the father of Odelia. Who married the only Durand to defect from his own family. Who is also the most eligible person to be the head of the Albrands. Haha. Ahahaha.

Yes, more or less.
