To create a tree, click the green "New Family Tree" button in the top right of the main Family Trees screen. To edit an existing one, use the green "Edit" button on a tree card, or the "Edit Tree" button at the top of any tree's page.

Main Settings

Give your tree a Family Tree Name in the first field — something like The Noble Line of House Black. If you're a Game Master, you'll also see a Family Tree Folder dropdown to file the tree into a folder, and a Secret? toggle. Setting Secret? to "Yes" hides the entire tree from your players.

Description

Use the Description editor to write up any extra detail or lore about the tree. When a description is present, a message icon button appears at the top of the tree's page that opens it in a pop-up, so it stays out of the way until someone wants to read it.

Card Display Fields

Every leaf card can show up to three extra detail lines beneath the character's title: Faction, Race, and Class. The Show Faction?, Show Race?, and Show Class? toggles here decide which of those lines appear on the cards across this whole tree. You'll still set or override the actual values on each individual leaf — these toggles just control whether they're displayed. This keeps your cards clean when you only want names, or richer when you want a full snapshot.

Image Settings

Upload your own image to represent the tree, or pick one from the Image Library if you're on the Knight, Monarch, or Deity tier. Images should be no more than 3MB; square images around 500x500px look best. An uploaded image overrides a library selection.

Deleting a Family Tree

You can delete a tree from the bottom of its edit form using the red "Delete Family Tree" button. Be careful: this deletes the entire tree and every leaf inside it, and it cannot be undone.
