BECK Martin Beck är kriminalkommissarien som tillsammans med sin kollega, Gunvald Larsson, en svårhanterlig polis som oftast tar lagen i egna händer, undersöker och löser de mest märkliga mordfall. #beck #gunvald #martinbeck #gunvaldlarsson #geektowns http://geektowns.se/#!/beck?idea=5d2ecaf0e4474210293cc621 https://www.instagram.com/p/B6q8pYchLHx/?igshid=25k2xfv3a30t
I think, it might be done! Also small because there’s spoilers aplenty.
Started on the 6th of December, and finished on the 6th of June there are approximately 426 characters, its split almost perfectly between male and female. It follows the ruling lines of four royal families; Aylmer’s (light green), Ryder’s (red), Gunvald’s (indigo), and Ibarra’s (pink), but also one Fae branch (dark green), and the Mason’s (purple). Despite how much I wanted to, I held off from going into detail of sibling partners and offspring, or else this would never be finished. I might cave in later and add a few, but I’m trying very hard not to.
The Gunvalds actually have another dozen generations beyond those shown here, as they’ve been ruling for about 1,000 years, but this section of the tree only shows 500, or from when the Ryders split off from them.
I’ve got little stories and ideas for almost each generation, so my next task will be going through them one by one and making notes on what those stories are. Along with that I need to go through and add a little symbol to indicate unnatural deaths, and I’m debating on adding things for family crests, but those aren’t as important.
More information below the cut.
The Aylmers (light green) are based in Farrowsorn, and unfortunately don’t get much screen time, as they’re basically all killed off before the story gets going! Distinguishing features are bright green eyes and red hair, one of their princesses married into the Ryder family, which meant the Ryders hair took on a distinct red copper shine. They are matriarchal always having queens, and their current queen (before death) is Mona, with her husband Dery, and their three children Aisling, Ailill, and Madoc, along with a few cousins.
The Ryders (red) are based in Kardoon, and as you know are the main royal family featured in the story. Distinguishing features are bright blue eyes and golden blond hair, although now they have more copper colouring from their Aylmer heritage. Originally patriarchal, they eventually switched to the first born ruling regardless of gender. The current ruler is Cadeyrn, married to Tegan, with their three children Boudicca, Ivan, and Charon.
The Gunvalds (indigo) are based in Ilithya, and are the second featuring royal family, they used to control most of North Naria, before the Ryders broke away and sparked a huge war. These days it calmed down and they’re buddies again. Distinguishing features are dark brown eyes, and dark brown hair. Originally patriarchal, they took a long time to switch to the first born ruling regardless of gender, and have a background rife with tyrannical rulers. The current ruler is Aurel, with his wife Valeria, and their three children Valko, Arabella, and Abbe.
The Ibarras (pink) are based in Kiala, and barely feature in the story, so I’ve not go much on them. What I do know is that their cities are beautiful works of art, with glass and towers, colour and light. Distinguishing features will probably be along the lines of black hair and maybe blue eyes. They have an odd tradition of alternating genders of their rulers, their current ruler is Savio, with his wife Remei, and their three children, Ida, Isa, and Rias.
The Masons (purple) are not rulers, but are traditionally the Royal Guards to the Ryders, this tradition has landed them a nice house and large reputation that can be difficult to live up to. Unlike the royal families, the Masons have dwindled down rapidly, resulting in only two living members, Aaron and Willow, with Aarons wife Lilac having been killed pre-story.
The Fae (dark green) are the current Fae rulers, they don’t currently have a surname, but the Faevin (high queen) is Áine. Due to the Fae’s poly nature, they frequently have large families with numerous partners and dozens of siblings and offspring, resulting in wide family trees. An interesting feature of the Fae is their rulers are always born with golden eyes, usually this poses no problem, but every few generations two siblings are born with golden eyes, resulting in friction. Áine’s younger sister Aylín, was born with golden eyes, fanning the flames of jealousy in Áine, contributing to Áine’s regicide for the throne.
I think that’s all for now?? I could go one about every generations drama, but I’m going to save that for later, and also there’d be spoilers and I want to avoid posting them just yet.
I drew Gunvald from Summon Night Swordcraft Story 2 as a request on /v/
Mecha requests never get love in the drawthreads so i went ahead and did what i do best.
