Families
From Fantasy Novel
For information on cousin relationships - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cousin (could be useful)
I've always liked how the Harry Potter series dealt with families - very interesting the familial relationships that are there... how we are exposed to "pureblood" families, like the Malfoys, Weasley's, Potters, etc... and then we are introduced to another one, like the Black's who are a massive, expansive, powerful clan that we hadn't known about yet - and they are intermixed with the ones we had already known about (ie malfoys).
Really explore the structure of all these families and how they are dealt with - can be very interesting.
