What a fantasy family tree is.
A fantasy family tree is a relationship map for fictional characters. It uses generations and family branches to show who belongs to a house, who has married into it, and which descendants may inherit a role, title or claim.
Use the drawing for family structure and keep lore such as powers, territories and motives in notes. That separation helps you catch relationship contradictions while keeping the tree easy to read.
