Family Trees

Visualize character lineages, family relationships, and genealogy trees across generations

Family Trees let you visualize character lineages, family relationships, and genealogy across generations. Whether you're mapping a sprawling dynasty for an epic fantasy or tracking relationships in a family saga, the family tree gives you a clear, visual overview of who's related to whom.

家系図の作成

プロジェクトの任意の場所に家系図を作成して、キャラクターの関係をマッピングできます。

    Name it

    Give your family tree a name, like "House Aldric Lineage" or "Main Character Family".

ヒント
Create separate family trees for different houses, factions, or branches of your story to keep things organized.

人物の追加

家系図の各ノードは人物を表します。キャラクターを追加して詳細を記入し、系譜を構築してください。

人物を追加

Click the add button in the toolbar or double-click an empty area to create a new person node. Enter their name, title, and a short description.

関係を定義

Connect persons by dragging from one node to another. Choose the relationship type: parent-child, spouse, sibling, or divorced. Lines are drawn automatically to show the connection.

関係のタイプ

家系図はいくつかの関係タイプに対応しており、物語の系譜を正確に表現できます。

  • Parent-child - the core of any family tree, shown as vertical connections
  • Spouse/partner - horizontal connections between partners at the same generation level
  • Sibling - automatically inferred from shared parents, or added manually
  • Divorced - a former spouse relationship, rendered distinctly from a current spouse link
ヒント
Color-code relationship lines to distinguish between blood relations, marriages, and adoptions at a glance.

レイアウトモード

家系図の構造に最も合うレイアウトを選択してください。

垂直

The classic top-down tree layout. Ancestors at the top, descendants below.

水平

A left-to-right layout. Useful when you have many generations and want to scan the tree like a timeline.

放射状

A central figure with family radiating outward. Great for highlighting one character's web of relationships.

キャラクターシートへのリンク

家系図の人物をプロジェクト内の他のコンテンツに接続すると、より豊かな執筆体験が得られます。

ドキュメントへのリンク

Link any person node to a character sheet, chapter, or note in your project. Click the link icon on a node to navigate directly to the associated content.
  • Link to character sheets for quick access to detailed backstories
  • Link to chapters where a character first appears
  • Link to notes with research or inspiration for the character

カスタムフィールドとカスタマイズ

カスタムフィールドとビジュアルオプションで、物語のニーズに合わせて家系図を調整できます。

カスタムフィールド

Add custom fields to person nodes - birth date and death date (free-form strings, so "1920", "March 15", or "Third Age 2931" all work), titles, allegiances, gender (Male / Female / Other / Unknown), or any metadata relevant to your story world.

Portrait Images

Attach a portrait image to any person node. Display settings let you toggle portraits Hidden, Small, or Large to balance detail against tree density.

Auto-Layout (Arrange)

The Arrange button in the toolbar runs auto-layout, repositioning every node to the chosen layout mode (vertical, horizontal, or radial). Useful after importing or after a large set of edits.

ビジュアルスタイリング

Color-code nodes by house, faction, or status. Adjust node sizes, line styles, and labels to create a tree that's both informative and visually appealing.
ヒント
Use different node colors for living, deceased, and missing characters to add an extra dimension of meaning to your tree.
