1) Arthur Blackson the Warrior
Lived: 1070-1163
Held Title: 1096-1163
The first Man In Black, Arthur was best known for making the original Colorfolk artifacts, using a secret method still unknown. He also is the one who struck down the Great Horned Beast in 1135 (before VEC confirmed the story, it was believed to be in 1110, if it happened at all). He was killed by a "vengeful spirit" in 1163. What this means is unknown.
2) Sir Cyril Blackson the Ruler
Lived: 1100-1179
Held Title: 1163-1179
Briefly held the title of acting King of Sodor when the current king was captured by Vikings. After his rescue, the Blacksons were given a lordship over what is now the Suddery Peninsula.
3) Sir Brendan Blackson the Traveller
Lived: 1140-1200
Held Title: 1179-1200
Was often away from his lands helping the Colorfolk, however when at home he was loved by his subjects. Brendam is named after a dam he built to create a harbor (it translates to Brendan's Dam in Sudric), though some say otherwise.
4) Sir Lancelot Blackson the Mysterious
Lived: 1178-1239
Held Title: 1200-1239
Like Brendan, was rarely at home. Many scholars say that if there was a King Arthur, he was Sir Lancelot, but few Colormen take these people seriously.
5) Leroy Blackson the Unfortunate
Lived: 1200-1245
Held Title: 1239-1245
Lost his lands after Viking raids devastated Brendam and the citizens overthrew him. He soon was stripped of his knighthood and died 6 months later.
6) Willis Blackson the Romantic
Lived 1220-1280
Held Title: 1245-1280
Not much is known about Willis, except his love life; he really got around. He married young, and multiple times. No less then 37 poems were written by people madly in love with him. He was killed by his really pissed first wife, who, unknown to him, was the Woman In Booger Buster of the time.
7) Noel Blackson the Supreme
Lived: 1236-1333
Held Title: 1280-1333
As a result of being the child of two Colorfolk, Noel was exceptionally powerful. He singlehandedly faught a small war at the age of 84 (don't even ask).
8) Michael Blackson the Godlike
Lived: 1260-1340
Held Title: 1333-1340
Also really powerful. After his wife Annie was struck down by Billie Jean, the notorious "Smooth Criminal", he set out to avenge her, ending in a duel that bystanders called a "thriller".
9) Robin Blackson the Rock
Lived: 1282-1353
Held Title: 1340-1341

He died strangely, getting trapped in a marsh and drowning.
11) Shelley Blackson the Feminine
Lived: 1325-1390
Held Title: 1355-1382
One of the most controversial Colormen, Shelley was in fact Benton's only surviving child, a daughter. She had 3 daughters before finally giving birth to a male heir. However, she was a very powerful Colorperson in her own right, singlehandedly stopping an assassination attempt on the King of England.
12) Shawn Blackson the Young
Lived: 1360-1423
Held Title: 1382-1410
Decided that the Men In Black would henceforth give up their powers at the age of fifty, rather than letting the Lineage stagnate again.
13) Simon Blackson the Ironically Unlucky
Lived: 1385-1469
Held Title: 1410-1454
Simon's only son, Zachary, died 3 months before Simon turned 50, so Simon had to wait until Zachary's son came of age go pass on his powers, already breaking Shawn's Law.
14) Sterling Blackson the Punisher
Lived: 1432-1500
Held Title: 1454-1482
He was put in charge of torturing Colorman Prisoners for information, but was deemed "too damned bloodthirsty" (Man In Dogwood Rose's own words!). He was downright tame compared to what was to come.
15) Shamus Blackson the Lenient
Lived: 1450-1501
Held Title: 1482-1500
Known for his forgiving nature, which later got him killed by a petty criminal who broke into his house.
16) Halden Blackson the Long-Lived
Lived: 1470-1572
Held Title: 1500-1572
Though he broke Shawn's Law, he was a great warrior, and seemingly couldn't be killed. His actual death is shrouded in mystery. They say he was strangled in his sleep by a red ghostly being, and his last words were "It's Back!"
17) Ward Blackson the Shadowed
Lived: 1543-1603
Held Title: 1572-1600
By this point, no one cared about Shawn's Law, they were too busy dealing with the dreams of doom coming by the end of the year 1700. Ward had these visions particularly badly, believing that Revelation was coming and Satan might be powerful enough to win.
18) Wallace Blackson the Paranoid
Lived: 1570-1630
Held Title: 1600-1625

20) Unwin Blackson the Deadly
Lived: 1635-1700
Held Title: 1678-1700
Even worse than Zebidiah. It just gets worse from here.
21) Aeron Blackson the Defiler
Lived:1670-1724
Held Title: 1700-1724
I'm not even going to tell you why he's famous. It's horrific.
22) Adrienne Blackson the Jaywalker
Lived: 1703-1747
Held Title: 1724-1747
Blah blah blah, murder arson blah. He was nasty.
23) Seth Blackson the Murderous
Lived: 1726-1794
Held Title: 1747-1794
By this time, the Blacksons were being hunted, so he went into hiding on the most desolate island he could find and cast a spell on it that created a thick covering of mist that has yet to disappate. When he wasn't killing people, he planted imported trees from Japan on the island.
24) Corbin Blackson the Snake

26) Douglas Blackson the Cannibal

27) Mal Blackson the Innovator
Lived: 1835-1902
Held Title: 1866-1902
Believing that the island the evil Colorfolk were living on should be modernized, he arranged for 3 engines to be built based on American prototypes. They were named after local outlaw hero Ferdinand "Bash-Dash" Miller. Unfortunately, good colorfolk took control of the island, and his railway became a logging camp.
28) Thorn Blackson the Unsung Hero
Lived: 1855-1914
Held Title: 1902-1914
Before he gained his powers, the anchor curse did not affect him, so he smuggled his eldest son Draco through the Misty Island Tunnel to freedom, hoping he would be free of the evil in his blood. He screwed up.
29) Draco Blackson the Murderer
Lived: 1879-1947
Held Title: 1914-1947
When he turned evil, he immediately joined the most evil powers around, fighting England in both World Wars.
30) Jack Blackson the Attorney
Lived: 1900-1969
Held Title: 1947-1969
Not as evil as his predessesors, he decided to become a lawyer instead of killing. He was a very sadistic lawyer, though, not to mentioned the illegal substances he smuggled into court.
31) Damian Blackson the Killer
Lived: 1940-1999
Held Title: 1969-1999
More than made up for his father's lack of evil. That's all I'll say.
32) William Blackson the Atoner
Lived: 1979-
Held Title: 1999-
Was the most bloodthirsty, murderous Man In Black... until the Anchor Curse was removed from him and he became a slightly nervous, very guilty hero who the good colormen are slowly growing to accept them. He is unmarried, and has no heir.
