I have a little 'theory' that as soon as people stop being useful to Ruth, she gets rid of them.

This means that if Colonel, Puppeteer and Gambler (Ethan, Nathan and Theodore respectively) become useless for Ruth's plans, she will not hesitate to get rid of them if she feels they are getting in her way.

Mainly because their family was probably involved in her first death (as a witch), and she swore revenge on the descendants of those who killed her, so she is probably using them as pieces of her plan on a big revenge.

Or maybe I'm just crazy... This is very likely.

Families

Ethan McMillan/Colonel McMillan

He is a traditional man, he wants to continue the family lineage, he wants to have heirs (even if he is immortal)

He wouldn't get married, no, none of them would, but he would only have one woman for life (it would be hard to convince Ruth to let this woman be immortal too, but she would give in at one point).

He would never call her his wife, no she is just 'the woman who has my children', though, he would act like a jealous husband all the time

Everyone would probably call her 'wife', even though Ethan always says she's not(she is)

He would probably stay with a softspoken woman (with a strong personality, he and his brother are enough),However, after a few years with him she would start to talk back (not in a bad way, she would just be less afraid of him)

He would probably want a boy, but if he had a girl, she would be his little girl.

He would want to be different from his father, not wanting to make the same mistakes (he will do worse)

He wouldn't like to see his daughter grow up, she was his little girl, and soon she would be a grown woman.

Between Ethan and Nathan... Ethan would probably have twins (considering that between Ewan and Owen, only one had twins, I assume it would be Ethan who would have them, it suits him)

However, if he had twins, he wouldn't really tell them apart (if they were identical twins like him and his brother, he only knows how to tell them apart because it's a boy and a girl, but sometimes he gets it wrong).

He would love it if any of his children followed his career path, or took an interest in family history.

he lost his mother at a young age, so it probably affected his relationships with the women in his life (if he had a daughter he would try to name her after his mother, but he would try to pretend it never happened in case his wife the child's mother questioned it, but she would probably like the idea if it made him happy).

I would want to have at most two (but he would lose control and have more, he simply loves his wife, don't blame him)

Ruth would try to use only Ethan's children for the rituals (since he has many, they wouldn't be missed, in her words),he didn't let her, and he got mad

Nathan McMillan/The puppeteer

He wouldn't be a good father, he would spend too much time at the theater (Ethan would be an workaholic,,but he would take a break to see his children and wife)

He would not marry, nor would he maintain a good relationship with the child's mother.

He would be an absent father, and probably wouldn't care that much, but he wanted the approval of both the child's mother and the children themselves.

Sometimes Ethan would probably lecture him on trying to be a better father, he wouldn't listen either way.

He probably wouldn't even mind having kids (it would probably be an accident,or he wouldn't even have children)

The gambler/Theodore Osthegard

If Nathan's child was an accident, Theodore's was even more so.

He was probably drunk after some gambling and the woman was even drunker.

Weird co-parenting

He would never let Ethan be better than him at anything, so he would at least try to be a good father (it wouldn't work, but he tried)

He would probably have a girl (I don't know, it just seems right)

He never sees the child's mother, and they keep it that way, they don't care.

He wouldn't be a good father, his parents probably spoiled him too much (although, I love his mom, she has such a cute face, she seemed nice)

He appeared every few a few months, sometimes his kids don't even know if he's alive(It disappears for 5 months and then appears for a few days, or just a few hours, and disappears again),Well, children are not his priority.

Ruth would not have children, no, definitely not, if she had children she would probably use them for rituals (she tried to use other people's children too, but Ethan wouldn't let her)
