Families

Since arriving at 'Souls, members of the Amaranthe family have interconnected with other prominent bloodlines. They are noted below.

• Volkov:
  • Semini and Nikita linked the Amaranthe and Volkov bloodlines with their children, Tiamat and Lotan in 2016. The Volkov family is an offshoot from the larger Russo bloodline.
• Revlis:
  • Akantha and Bacchus linked the Amaranthe and Revlis bloodlines with their children, Odalis, Lucian, and Solomon in 2016. Their Revlis line has traces of Lykoi, Rhiannon, and D'Angelo blood.
  • Semini and Lokr Revlis further entangled the Amaranthe/Revlis bloodlines with their litters in 2017 and 2019.
• Other Influences:
  • The Savoy and Amaranthe families, while not interconnected by blood, have a longstanding positive relationship originating with Semini and Mara Savoy, and later seen between Tiamat and Rahab de le Poer. Leander Sadira spent considerable time working with Calrian and Malik at La Estrella Roja.

Packs and Loner Bands

• Salsola: The Thistle Kingdom has been the subject of positive and negative attention for the Amaranthe family.
  • Semini and the former Lord Commander, Lokr Revlis, had a secret affair, which later resulted in conflicts for literally everyone.
  • Akantha had a one-night stand with Salsolan Bacchus Revlis that resulted in a litter.
  • Odalis was a long time servant of Boss Elphaba Revlis, more recently a secret 'intimate associate' of Erilaz O'Riley Eternity.
  • Tiamat has attacked several of its members, including Brocade Valentine, Lyra Salcedo, Casimir Soul, Grievous Eternity, and O'Riley Eternity. She was severely wounded by O'Riley Eternity in late summer 2021, who was then ambushed and thought to be killed by Lotan Amaranthe.
  • More positive relationships include those between Clementine Salcedo and Calrian Amaranthe.
• New Caledonia: In August 2021, Serafina and Tercero Robles joined the kingdom of New Caledonia.
• The Troupe: Amaranthe brothers Calrian and Malik were involved in the foundation of the Troupe, and later La Estrella Roja.

• Krokar: Krokar was the home of Semini for the duration of her time in Nova Scotia. She served as its Navigator and had two litters while there.
• Sapient: Akantha assisted in the founding of Sapient and served in a leadership role for a time.
• Cour des Miracles: Semini and Baroness Mara Savoy were close friends, and Odalis and Solomon were members of CdM for a time.
• Bête Noire: Solomon and his mate Alejandra Sanctus joined the Rest Stop in 2021 and began a family there. Solomon was later killed by O'Riley Eternity and Odalis when trespassing onto Salsola lands in late 2021; their daughter Marina Amaranthe was then taken from Alejandra Sanctus and brought into the Thistle Kingdom.

Court

Patron Families are the smaller families that make up the majority of Onuba. By offering support to an Inner Court Family, patrons are granted protection, services, and deals by that family. It is customary that Inner Court families select their spouses from one of their Patron families.

The following are the patron families who have pledged to the Amaranthe family: Durante, Puga, Secoya, Avellano.

Other influences of the Amaranthe bloodline now include Robles bloodlines, starting with Akantha and Isandro's litter.

Adoption

Adoption into the Amaranthe household is an infrequent occurrence that is sometimes used as incentive for servants. The only members of the family who can officially adopt are descendants of the main branch. A servant can petition to the Alta Baronesa for recognition if they have made a significant contribution to the Amaranthe family.

• Amber is the predominant eye color within the Amaranthe family, followed by cold blues.
  • Greens and warm blues are known to occur in descendants of the Winsor and Revlis bloodlines.

• Merle and tricolor are the predominant fur patterns in the Amaranthe family. Colors tend to be divided between blue-black, steel blue, and reds.
  • The introduction of more wild patterns, such as agouti, may be found in Revlis descendants.
  • While Amaranthes predominantly have folded ears, descendants of the Revlis and Volkov lines may have standing ears.
• Optime hair color tends to vary between whites, blacks, and golds depending on the dominant coat pattern.
