The McCullough Chronicles

To start a war between humans and the Society/Kingdom, wipe out all life, and restart the world with Cyril and Melissa as the father and mother of a race of hive minded magical embodimants.

Where would Baldur fit in in this new world?

He'd be the God.

...Someone didn't read the Evil Overlord List.

How's the covert incest going to work out?

Well Mel's eventaully abandoned by him, he never see's her again really. So it does sorta stop.

Does she attempt to find another father figure?

As in a healthy father figure or another fucked up one?

Either.

Granddad does come to serve the role of a (healthy) father, Granny basically serves as their mother.

Hooray!

Also, how high a kill rate does the school have, roughly?

About three students a year.

And how many students go there?

About four hundred and fifty.

Ah. So they avoid getting caught by having a ~.6% success rate?

Are the clockwork robots technological, magical, or both?

Both. Cyril would describe them as a steampunk wetdream.

<*immediately wonders what all the other characters would call them*

Which tends to creep fellow Members out more, the lack of personal space or the lack of fingernails?

They have finger nails, it's toe nails they lack. So yeah lack of personal space.

Whoops. I wrote "nails", and then decided to be specific...

Do Members regard either of those oddities any differently than we mortals might?

Well no toe nails is a standard selkie thing so they just see it as evidence of interesting breeding.

Why are they insulted by the term witches? Just the association with Black Magic?

They asociate witches with cackling old crones.

So what could the Society/Kingdom govermant be called?

Hmph. Left out two-thirds.

Any particular reason they take the mother's name, or is it just traditional?

I've been trying to think of a reason.

Matrilineal inheritance?
