(Considers) I'm not really sure. He's said to look related to the Sturmvoraus, which would suggest that he's related to Aaronev. And he appears to be a Knight of Jove, which also looks suggestive of the Sturmvoraus.

Tarvek says that the Sturmvoraus have been protecting the lineage of Valois for ten generations. That would suggest that the Valois bloodline has been at the very least guarded by the Sturmvoraus, and possibly propagated through marriages. If Tarvek's line is anything like many European royal families, the interconnections and back-breeding could be rather intense.
