Thanks for all the feedback and the additional info guys!
Tempest - I just read your Revealing Shades story. That was such an awesome recap of all your characters and a perfect way to bridge the continuity between them all. I have to admit, trying to weed through all the old threads and figure out just who was who was a nightmare for someone who wasn't on LW at the time. With that single story, I feel I finally have a clear picture. For the genogram, what I'll do then is add Tempest in (along with her parents) and indicate through some sort of new connection line which other folks in the tree were her shades. I feel like, at a bare minimum, Viviane has too many hooks into other characters to eliminate her from the diagram altogether, but I'll indicate the she, Morgause and Divine Opal Janell are "aspects' of Tempest.
Dev/Sharky - Truth or Consequences... whoa! I did not see that coming at all, but that is such a cool twist. It really gives a whole new nuance to the long standing Shark Lad/Furball animosity. It will take a little bit of readjusting of the chart (I have to figure out a better placement to tie you two together, while still keeping Lon in proximity to the Hrykos family and now realizing that Icefyre is Semi's brother, but I'll make it work).
Kent - Great! I'll totally add both of those... I was really bummed about not finding connections for some of the major players.
Lardy - I'll add in the additional Mordra/Dru info, and the Hugh Taylor clone, but a quick question about the XXXauron/Pornis stuff. So are they both sort of ancient beings or is Pornis a more contemporary offspring?
Cobie - While I don't really anticipate the return of Numf and Sonnie, I will add them as brothers even with the continuity mishmash. Is it fair to say, though, that Numf was this "son" of these heroes, but that his "ghost" was the offspring of Golden Girl... or was he originally Golden Girl's kid and then just came back as a ghost after he died?

During the "Thyme Crime" when Phineas was adjusting the timelines of various LMBers, he temporarily adjusted that of Lolita such that she was replaced by the meek librarian, Mary Hatch. I had written that Mary was the child of "Niles and Esther Hatch" and the granddaughter of a "Dr. Ezra J. Hatch".
The question is - Is this still a valid lineage still for Lolita after her timeline was restored, or was "Mary" not an alternate timeline version of Lolita at all, but rather a different person altogether that the universe "subbed in" for her once she was out of the picture.

I had to look something up to make sure. According to "Pyngwyn's Progress" Rockhopper Lad's origin story, Rocky's grandfather was actually Emperor Chrysochome XXXIV. I don't think I ever established what his father's (Rocky's great-grandfather's)name was. "Chrysochome" is Rocky's middle name, "Eudyptes Chrysochome", of course, being the taxonomic classification of the rockhopper penguin.
This makes this project no less a-mah-zing.

In order to show Chrysochome and Kestor as brothers, though, I have to include the parental pair. Should I just list the great grandfather as "unknown"?

It's never been established, but why don't why decide right here and now that his dad was Eudyptes XXVII!

I'm sure if every LMBer who had a crush on Peebs was pointing to him, he'd have more arrows than Oliver Queen.

They're all pretty ancient beings. As revealed in LotO, Pornis was actually a minor god in Greek mythology called "Priapus" (look him up in WikiPedia! ). His history is not necessarily the same as Pornis', but I feel they are one and the same, nonetheless. So Pornis' folks are even ancient-er!

And kudos to you for cataloging the many love affairs of Cobie
I'm super-impressed that you included Rocky's cousin Makarona!

I'm surprised there's room for any of us on the list given all of Cobies "relations."
