In other news, I’ve gone ahead and made a Gorov family tree, and after running it by Winter I’ve decided to publish it here :goo: lemme know what you all think :goo: :goo: :goo:


350 Years Ago

Everard the Gorini
Born to an unknown couple in the Dominion of Life to the West, Everard is shrouded in mystery. Who he married - or if he married - is completely unknown, as well as what The Gorini referred to - some theorize it meant gourmand, but these theories are fairly baseless.

Tamerland Gorini

Tamerlan Gorini, Sintija Riguard, Valenti Tamblyn
Claiming to be the grandson of Everard the Gorini, Tamerlan married and then divorced, married again almost immediately, and divorced again almost a month later. An orphan bearing his name may have come from Sintija Riguard, or Valenti Tamblyn, but historians not only cannot tell, but tend to have better things to do with their time.

Athanaric Teodomiro Gorini

Athanaric Teodomiro Gorini, Ottoline Tathacott
Known for being a brewer of all kinds of alcohol and for his loud, extremely bubbly personality, Athanaric had many lavish parties and became a societal figurehead. His enemies were few, really only consisting of his very jealous father and those affiliated with him. He only outlived his father by eight months, however, and left a multitude of children behind, all of which chose different trades.

Rozabela Gorini, Leonora Gorini, Rodrigo Gorini, Caspian Gorini

Rodrigo Gorini, Lerato Facchini
While many of the Gorini family loved parties like their father did, Rodrigo was intensely antisocial and gloomy. Lerato was incredibly cold as well, and the pair managed to sour every party they went to until they were no longer invited. Both died during a house fire when their son was 22.

Chadvar Gorini

Chadvar Gorini - Mavzuna Nurcombe
A tanner by trade, Chadvar immigrated to the Summer Isles with little goal outside of getting away from his family in the West once his parents had passed. He met Mavzuna shortly after arriving, and found plenty of work opportunities, eventually founding his own leatherworking company.

Dilovar Gorini, Davlat Gorini, Gorica Gorini

Davlat Gorini - Kalina Haldane
Davlat was the real visionary among his siblings. Whereas his brother went off into the wine trade and his sister died at four, Davlat leveraged the tense relationships between the Summer Armada and the rest of the world to become head of the leather trade, making him incredibly powerful.

Blagoje Gorini, Milenko Gorini

Blagoje Govini - Meliora Emptage
It was here the rotten seed of the Gorovs began. Blagoje altered his last name to help his wife pronounce it easier, which triggered a short series of name changes in the future. Blagoje slowly rid the Govini name of any association with leather, having cornered the market for finance trade, and in his later years grew from being generally kind-hearted to callous and cruel.

Blago Govini

Blago Govini, Reyhangül Niesegen
Blago picked up instantly on his father’s financial wit, coupling with it an unbelievable cunning his fairly moral mother inherited to produce one of the greatest actors the world had ever known. With his devious nature he became an incredibly powerful banker, statesman, friend of the crown, and power player in world relations. It was not until long after his assassination that many of the damaging crimes he had committed came to light.

Domagoj Govini, Blagun Govini

Domagoj Gorovi, Arijana Domenicone
Blagun was chosen as the family heir early on, and with intense cruelty he tortured his older brother over the fact. Inheriting the family fortune and position, Blagun cast his older brother and his family out on the street, but less than a decade later died mysteriously to a parasitic worm so foreign to those parts of the world that many historians believed it was shipped in by his brother, who after Blagun’s demise disinherited his two children, Ranka and Rohit, and once again changed the family name to distance association with the pair.

Charo Gorovi, Liudevit Gorovi, Polina Gorovi

Liudevit Gorov, Thalia Bourtomieux
Liudevit instituted the final name change, and for good reason: while being a very dour-faced fellow, he used the brilliance of his mental genes to reshape the now thoroughly tarnished reputation of his family name into a charitable and politically-interested one, all while remaining as heartless and greedy as his father had been. Less was accomplished to satisfy those desires, however, in return for the Gorov name not totally going under.

Goronwy Gorov

Goronwy Gorov, Sidonia Echalie
The only Gorov noted for his kindness, Goronwy was far from saintly, but was much less greedy and ambitious than his forefathers. Most of his drive revolved around the further beautification of the Summer Isles and devotion to the crown, doing his best to ensure a strong form of support for his offspring. Sidonia was extremely feminine as well, greatly contributing to the idea that the Gorovs were just as royal as the royals themselves, if not more so. Potentially due to this, a rumor abounds that Goronwy’s murder was ordered by the crown in fear that he might ascend to the throne himself.

Aloysius Gorov, Sigilina Gorov

Dederick Riordan, Sigilina Gorov
Aloysius took over the family enterprise at an old age, being born early on compared to his sister, and after his ineptitude with handling finances almost cost the Gorov family everything, he suffered a debilitating stroke, and on what would become his deathbed he humbly apologized for his actions and handed over responsibility of everything to his sister. She patiently waited for her alcoholic husband to eventually waste away, and finally changed her name back to Gorov. Her brother’s humility did little to inspire her, however; by her teachings, she raised one of the most wicked Gorovs of them all.

Meraud Gorov

Boyko Taffurelli, Meraud Gorov
The second Gorov matron, Meraud thoroughly destroyed the upbeat and chipper Boyko over many years, living in lavish luxury while completely disassociating him from her affairs. The poor Boyko eventually died alone, while the comparatively younger Meraud went on to raise her three children in all things cruel and manipulative.

Gregor Gorov, Yaromil Gorov, Pyotr Gorov

Gregor Gorov, Galina Dolipus
The last of the Gorov lineage. Gregor was the culmination of all wickedness that ever came before, able to make up for any loss in his act or cunning with his wickedness and wit, successfully outmaneuvering his frail mother and using his brother Yaromil’s untimely death as instigation to corner even more control. While the Summer Isles rotten under Meraud, they positively festered under Gregor.
Galina earned her name from her adoptive father Darshan Dolipus, the son of a northerner escaped from prison living under a false identity. Unlike her husband Galina was almost too compassionate, but not so much as to make her gullible; Gregor’s control was significantly limited by her constant interference in his plans, always curtailing his wicked ambitions and forcing him to go well beyond his normal intent to suffice his desire to destroy.
Together they had one son, and not long after, Galina died from unknown causes. He was named Dolphus, after Galina’s maiden name, and what path this final Gorov walks on is yet to be determined.

Dolphus Gorov
