Archaeologist (Archie) Baines was the firstborn son of Curator and Cartographer Baines, and the older-by-three-years brother of Palaeontologist (Pal) Baines. Their father, Curator, was the owner of a large natural history museum in Yorkshire, England, where the boys grew up with a constant source of artefacts, minerals and bones to observe and learn about. It was through their parents and their childhood at the museum that the boys both discovered a mutual but separate love for history, with Archie wanting to know more about human civilisations and Pal being interested in prehistoric creatures.

Their mother, Cartographer (totally not inspired by king of seas …) had been quite the traveller in her younger days and had become accustomed to making her own maps as she went. Having retired to Yorkshire to raise her sons, she made a habit of creating treasure maps and hiding little things around the yard and in sandboxes to encourage both of her children’s passions as well as her own.

Archie attended a local Yorkshire university to gain his archaeology degree, which is where he meets Miner MacCarrick on campus, who had been pressured into academics by his family despite not wanting to attend. Miner did admit to enjoying digging, something he shared with archaeologists, and the two went from best friends to a relationship. And it was good for a while … their personalities genuinely clicked, they had shared interests, and when Archie got his first overseas assignment to work in the field in Belgium, both his brother and Miner followed. All three ended up enjoying the area so much they looked to stay, eventually moving into a small town village. Here, things start to break down for Miner and Archie. Archie is loving the place, so many cool European artefacts to uncover, so many new people, he’s started an archaeology blog and is going to meetings with others across Europe to discuss their finds. Miner is working bringing coal and metals back for the village and is happy where he is. He approaches Archie with the confession of wanting to start a family. Archie’s like ‘woah buddy I’m way too young for this I can’t be lugging a baby around excavation sites now can I and I’m not mean enough to let you to everything”. Miner puts up with it for a little while but after a couple more years Archie admits he REALLY isn’t sure the two are in the same place in life, despite being totally compatible in every other way. They decide with heavy hearts to break up and pursue their own things.

Miner and Archie continued to be best friends, but Miner went on to date German newcomer Blacksmith Schmidt for a short time before running into the same problem. Miner can’t pick em and that'll come back to haunt Blacksmith when Zinc arrives lmao. After that, Miner dated Canadian born Timber Boyce, the local bear- I mean lumberjack. Who, to his relief, was on the same page as him. The two soon have a daughter, Lapidary MacCarrick, and Miner anoints his bestie Archie as her godfather / fave non-relative uncle. Archie is happy to only babysit every once in a while and is kind of relieved both he and Miner are where they want to be in life.

Pal Baines and Clover Xun, and their daughter Onyx Baines. Unsure if they're gonna get married yet. Also despite being Humanverse, Onyx was probably made with whatever sorcery has been making all the other kids for reasons, dw about it.

Archie meanwhile stuck to carbon dating, something Skelly discovers he shares with his father the first time the Baines’ parents come over to visit their son's new home village. You should be flattered Skelly, they think you’re fascinating after all.
