Hi there! I discovered Choices in late 2017, and have since then have my ups and downs with it. But what I got most fun of was around the summer in 2017 I became acquainted with the page of familyecho.com. It's a page for making a family-tree. I have been talking about it a bunch on the "Discuss", and I thought to post it out here. Firstly: the characters on this tree is from the books I enjoyed playing, so not all MCs are in it, neither the LIs – unless it's for fun or for stretching out the family ties.

Also worth noting is that I have at occasions cheered people to do the same, mostly because you can have a lot of fun with it. You can add little secrets and occupations in a sidebar, making secrets for yourselves, but the MCs don't know about. For example: Caroline's ex-fiancé was killed by a Cordonian mobster after he failed to trick him. Dortiana is nicknamed "Dotty" by Artie (the son of Savannah and Bertrand). Xiomara and Anselm is twins and had a secret bet they would benefit from the other if one of them won. I have all these fun facts and "Unknown" family memebers that's just there by name, so it's kinda irritating when PB decides to go the "lore bump"-way and messing up my tree XD

I have currently stopped adding characters on my original tree, much due to the lack of quality books. I don't want to ruin the family tree who have given me so much joy. I therefore have another tree with more of the new books (so that is one I don't like much because a lot of the new books isn't good lol)

I have a lot of spare time to work with this tree XD

Park-Menzel family
This was my first family, and the story of this family is that Sunday and Scott were married for a long time, but at some point Sunday was unfaithful to him in favor for Grayson Bonham. She divorced Scott, but still kept in touch with their children. After being married to Grayson, she gave birth to the twins Kayleigh and Ronnie. Later they adopted Terry in January 2017, who became Redfield in May 2018 (leading to his death).

Devin family
A large family from the ROE-series, these were some of the main reason I wanted to make a family tree. I started with the Park-Menzels, but I thought: "how can I connect these families?" The answer was making Adrian (the partner of Kayleigh Park) the father of the ROE MC's LI, finding the loophole. They aren't that interesting anyhow: everyone get their inheritance after their Grandma dies, and get along with their cousin. The MC marries Simon Sloan, and Party-Girl Sister get Carter. The cousin however is more interesting. Maddie is the child of a Willoughby, and gave birth to Hollywood-star Mat's daughter: Amelia.

Willoughby family
After being hooked by this family tree creating, I couldn't help myself. I dug in who the father of Maddie could be, and the only ginger I could find was Jefferson Willoughby III, but I decided to branch out on him. Therefore, Maddie became the illegitimate child of the Willoughby-heir Jonathan. Thus I created a more corrupt and interesting family. For a period

They are the founders of Willoughby Oil Company (WOC), Willoughby Models (WM) and Willoughby Technologies (WT). The head of the family, Jefferson Willoughby II, is the CEO of WOC; his wife is the head of WM, and their eldst son lead WT.

Palm Beach Club
This is a project I've been thinking of putting out there for a time now. I simply adore the new action-adventure semi-romanced Blades, but due to the enormous increase of the romance books, I have wanted to put out my idea: just to see if people think it would be a cool thing. It is adapted by a play I was in during the winter of 2018. We had positive reviews, the worldbuilding was intriguing and the characters were strange in a fascinating way. The book is heavily choice-based and follows a narrative based on your main choices and relationships with other characters in the game.

Book informationPalm Beach Club is the first book of The Beach series. It is followed by Miami Beach Union. You play as "Kerry", and have the opportunity to play as male or female.

Summary
''You only wanted a peaceful place to spend your spring break, but everything changed after the Ending. You are now trapped at the Palm Beach Hotel, but who can you trust?''

Characters

 * Writers – Tanner (leader, visitor), Mana (second-in-command, chambermaid), Ronnie (hotel director, LI), Ellen (maid), Helen (maid, LI), Elias (tennis player, visitor), Dylan (visitor). They are a group of teens that don't want to leave the hotel: they are convinced the world has nothing left to give them. Therefore they try to prevent their doom by realizing Utopia, an idea created by Tanner.
 * Tanner was the first one to come to the hotel, though only as a visitor. His brother Dylan came with him; their sister Mana was in the neighbor city on business for the hotel. After the Ending, Tanner lost his legs: they simply faded away due to the incident. Dylan was out swimming when it happened, and was cooped up on a coastal rock slop: being exposed to radioactive air and water, deforming him. He managed to return to the mainland however, though it is uncertain how. Mana is trying to keep the family together by manipulating Tanner's explosive nature towards the other Writers and Clubbers. Dylan is being kept in the basement due to the damage the radiation has done to him.
 * Ronnie and his twin Sheldon is completely opposite of each other. While Ronnie is on the very top, working as a the hotel director – being Tanner and Mana's eyes and ears – he is feared and hated, due to believing he is in full control. Albeit this is due to his bad relationship with Sheldon, who on his side is caring and excited. Despite their differences, Ronnie loves his brother. He don't want him to get into trouble and therefore act very protective of him.
 * Ellen have taken the role of maids. She come from a large family with many sisters: everyone like her. Upon arriving at the Palm Beach Hotel, she had the chance to save her family, but she kept the doors locked: leaving them to suffocate. She is haunted by this action however, and she have reserved a couple of rooms for them in case her sisters or parents would turn up safe on the doorstep. This have turned her to act indifferent and is a follower of the hotel's rules. She sees and hears everything, though she is a bit dull and is easy to manipulate.
 * Helen arrived at the hotel to enjoy herself: she and her friends were out shopping in the town when the Ending came upon her. Only having a picture to remember her friends, she slowly loose her memory of them. One day she threw it away: it meant nothing to her anymore. She began follow the steps of Ellen and became a maid. She does have touch of the finer things however, and keep up the facade of Palm Beach Hotel. She longs for the simple life before the Ending, however, and is not one of the most loyal Writers: she too believes it is nothing left for the group.
 * Elias and his girlfriend Indie are a pair of world famous tennis players.
