Ok, not everyone's party member is an orphan, abandoned on a doorstep at the local tavern or monastery. If you are familiar with using portrait frames, why not go a step further? Old World Style set 17: Ancestral Ties has numerous motifs to design lineages, or other ideas. Want to explain how cults arose from existing religions? Show the splits in political powers? Maybe you want to illustrate to your players why one kingdom's quest to eliminate another could be demonstrated through a nifty li'l flow chart, detailing past offenses and discrepancies. Or maybe the ever popular gnomish technical explanations of 'If I push this button'..? Several samples are included for ideas, but really the designs are all in your hands of how the trees look. Hope you enjoy!
