Paltiel Family

The Paltiel family is an old, old Manta Carlos family. The original Paltiel's were purely human, and landed in the 1600s. Somewhere down the line, someone married a dinosaur shifter, and the entire family has been since then. Dino-shifter DNA tends to be prominent, so marrying a human is no issue--the children still almost always come out dinosaur shifters. The Paltiel's are both very old and very rich, especially when you're more closely related to the main family.

The main family is, at this point, simply Ignatius and his parents. He has no siblings (although he does have quite a few second cousins), and all signs indicate that the main family itself is going to be a thing of the past when Ignatius finally bites it. Ignatius--and just Ignatius--lives on the large Paltiel estate. The estate is generally open for family visitors and has a guest house which frequently has a family or two visiting in.

The closer someone is to the main house, the more likely they are to be a large carnivorous dinosaur. This doesn't always hold true, but cousins of the main family tend to be either large or carnivorous (if not both), while more distant members of the family tend to be herbivores or smaller species (if not both).

Paltiel's can only turn into one other form, and sometimes display physical traits of their dinosaur form while in human form. Ignatius has sharp teeth and several markings, for example, as well as his extremely large size. Shifters are born human and shift for the first time in childhood.
