|'''Daf, Teacher. Dad.'''<br><hr>Dekas' Father. An equally excellent relationship with his father. But Daf is a very shy, introverted man in comparison to his mother. He does find it easier at times to be in the background, but once you get to know him, and he is comfortable with you, he's an extremely kind, laid-back person. He was the parent who was more likely to let little things slip under the radar. Always affectionate when someone needed comfort. Dekas does his best to emulate his father's patient compassion with new people and also has the same habit of occasionally getting very fluffy feathered in the face when people compliment him or show him affection, as that was a trait he inherited from Daf. (Note: You wouldn't necessarily think that Daf would be a perfect match for someone as confidently strong-willed as Zuka, but his parents are deeply in love with one another and constantly show it if they are in a room together. Besides... she pursued him first and thought the shy return of the feelings was extremely cute and still does. It works very well for them. After all, there is a reason they have 13 kids together.) | |'''Daf, Teacher. Dad.'''<br><hr>Dekas' Father. An equally excellent relationship with his father.

|'''Rha, Physicist'''<br><hr>Dekas' Eldest sister. She was already an adult by the time Dekas was hatched, so while they do know each other well, and get along just fine, they aren't as close as they could be due to the 20 year age difference. | |'''Rha, Physicist'''<br><hr>Dekas' Eldest sister. She was already an adult by the time Dekas was hatched, so while they do know each other well, and get along just fine, they aren't as close as they could be due to the 20 year age difference. She is also fairly serious in a lot of ways naturally. Has two bondmates and three children, all of which are only 4 years younger than Dekas is. Dekas is closer to his nephews simply because they are closer in age. | ||

|'''Ruri, Artist'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' eldest sisters. She's Rha's twin. And | |'''Ruri, Artist'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' eldest sisters. She's Rha's twin. And similarly, he's not as close to her as he could be because of that same 20 year age difference. However, he's slightly closer to Ruri than to Rha, if only because she jokes around a little easier. She has a bondmate and 4 children who are between 7, and 10 years younger than him. Again, he's closer to the kids than his sister due to closeness in age. | ||

|'''Irik, Biology Professor'''<br><hr>Dekas' eldest brother. Their age difference is 16 years. | |'''Irik, Biology Professor'''<br><hr>Dekas' eldest brother. Their age difference is 16 years. Another age gap large enough to not make them the closest siblings, but they do love each other. Irik likes to playfully rib Dekas for things as older brothers sometimes do. Dekas does his best to have good comebacks but isn't always successful. It's their form of friendship and they have fun with it. | ||

He's Irik's twin. 16 year age difference. Keso liked to go out a lot while Dekas was growing up, so they don't have the closest relationship based on lack of frequent interaction and age difference, This was true once Keso found a bondmate, and started having Fledglings of his own. (He has six kids and they're roughly 12 years younger than Dekas.) But they do get along when they're in a room together. | ||

|'''Sukki, Ecologist, and singer'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. 13 year age difference. Dekas and Sukki can be known to spend a significant amount of time together when Dekas is on Aurelia. They are good friends and like making up little songs together. They fly together as well. He has very fond memories of that with her. She is currently unbonded, but has been a surrogate for same-gender bondmates before and is thrilled to give those Aurelians that joy. However, her day job is as a notable ecologist, and on the side, she also sings because she loves it. | |'''Sukki, Ecologist, and singer'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. 13 year age difference. If not for his closeness with Koori growing up, it's likely that Dekas considers Sukki one of his favorite siblings.

She was a lot like their father in her gentle compassion, and like their mother in her specific passion for history. | |'''Mars, Historian'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. She's one of the triplets along with Sukki, 13 year age difference. She was a lot like their father in her gentle compassion, and like their mother in her specific passion for history. His relationship with her is fairly close, but got closer as they both grew up, and it's only slower going now because Dekas is in Starfleet. it's always nice to see her. | ||

|'''Ehk, Painter'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. She's one of the triplets along with Sukki, and Mars, 13 year age difference. She was always a little quieter, but he enjoys spending those quiet moments with her. However, when she wasn't being quiet, she was the one daring him to do mischievous things here and there. | |'''Ehk, Painter'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters.

|'''Eris, Astrophysicist'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. She's Gura's twin. 11 year age difference. She and Gura were nearly inseparable growing up, so they both went into similar fields and often work closely together. As such, Dekas enjoys hearing her talk about her science career as well. He doesn't see her around as often, as she chose to move in closer to her bondmate's family in a different flock of Aurelians with blue and gold feathers after becoming official. She is also the mother of Dekas' favorite niece. | |'''Eris, Astrophysicist'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. She's Gura's twin. 11 year age difference.

They're decently close because of the closeness in ages, and it shows when they're around one another. But, growing up, at least, he did have a clear preference for Koori, so it wasn't as immediately obvious. These days they're a little closer now. | ||
|- | |||
|'''Ura, Crystal sculptor'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. Triplets with Daffa and Koori. 5 year age difference to Dekas. They were fairly close given their closer age range, but again because of his closeness to Koori, it wasn't quite as close as it could have been. Neither party is bitter because it's not like it's unusual to have favorites, and they have found time to become closer with age and experience. She and Daffa are there for him especially about issues with Koori. | |||

|'''Koori, Spiritual, and Intuitive Energy Healer'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. Triplets with Daffa and Ura. 5 year age difference to Dekas. The sibling that Dekas feels closest to. When Dekas hit about 6 years old, and Koori was 11, they realized they had very similar personalities, and feelings on many things, and it made for an easy in to become extremely close, as siblings go. Koori was his confidant and best friend within the family. They did, however, have a distinct and unexpected point of disagreement when Dekas started getting older. Dekas wanted to join Starfleet. Koori didn't think that it was right for him, worried that he'd become a self-fulfilling tragedy like his namesake. When he told her that he'd been accepted into the academy on Earth, they got into their first real fight. The disagreement didn't get solved before he left because the only way she was going to be happy with any of it was if Dekas stayed where it was safest, and the only way Dekas was going to be happy was if she'd just be happy with him. She didn't see him off when he left. For a while, this led to rather awkward communications over long distances since both of them considered it a conversation to have in person. They had a few chances to talk it out when Dekas took his Leave of Absence in mid-2398, but neither of them wanted to get into another fight. Dekas' rare Aurelian medical diagnosis ended up postponing it again since he had to deal with that first, and then he planned to leave again. Something they already knew would be the case. She seemed to understand a little better since she did say goodbye the second time. But given the time that has passed, and the way their lives have changed... it's not anywhere close to what it was. It's hard to say that it ever will be. | |'''Koori, Spiritual, and Intuitive Energy Healer'''<br><hr>One of Dekas' older sisters. Triplets with Daffa and Ura. 5 year age difference to Dekas.

|'''Zhia-Qi, Niece, Newly an adult'''<br><hr>Zhia-Qi, "Zhia"(pronounced like "Zjaw", Full name is: "Zjaw-key". Sometimes visiting humanoids call her Jockey in their accent and she is also okay with that) is Dekas' favorite niece. They get along swimmingly and relate to each other on how much they each stand out. And while they are different personalities, they do have a similar sense of humor, and surprisingly similar life goals. She's the daughter of Eris and Eris' bondmate Khess-Qi. She stands out with a very different color of feathers to both of her parents as she is a mixed bird from two differently feathered flocks. She is 20 years old now, newly an adult by Aurelian standards. She can sort of be considered a student as she is picking up fluency in Federation Standard. But she isn't in official university classes yet otherwise as she's considering a Starfleet career, potentially. A lot like Dekas, but in her case, she would prefer to know which college she's attending rather than attending both Aurelian and Starfleet colleges. (Her attention span is such that she wouldn't enjoy going to college twice as Dekas did. Just one is fine, thanks.) | |'''Zhia-Qi, Niece, Newly an adult'''<br><hr>Zhia-Qi, "Zhia"(pronounced like "Zjaw", Full name is: "Zjaw-key".
