The Man In Yellow Bloodline was one of the first three bloodlines to be created. Though this line did go evil for a significant portion of the Dark era, it turns out that "evil" for Man In Yellow meant not using the powers to defend Sodor, rather, the Man In Yellow decided to go into hiding for the time being, and only emerged after being blackmailed into fighting for evil by the Man In Black and Man In Green. The family line is:
1) Brigham Eskal
Born: 1072
Died: 1160

3) Carrick Eskal
