I mean, even Ketheric's wife didn't seem to care about their son either....
It's doubtful he's really his son and not calling him father in the Sharran tradition
No I think they are real Thorms, but not from Melodia. Probably conceived with a later mistress who was Sharran also. Chronology here is a knot that cannot be unraveled.
Malus is factually not his son, but has a different family connection, while there isn't anything that implies Gerringothe is his daughter that I can remember. I'm not sure who you mean with "they"?
Thisobald has 4 legs and a tail, he's a rather strange undead all around. Unlike the rest of the family, his position isn't prestigious, either. However, I have my doubts that Ketheric is the sort of man to take a mistress.
