On William the Conqueror / whatever Sigefrith's calling him these days

Actually this is more of a question on one of his children, but if this ends up being his official thread I'll go get my Team Anglo-Saxon banners.
Anyway. I actually wanted to know if there's any reason there isn't a bio page for William's daughter Adela yet? I was checking the old man's bio today when I noticed that.
Also (and this is just occurring to me now that I've had a look at the Wikipedia articles of William's children) I was wondering if you had any plans for Robert Curthose's illegitimate son Richard, the one who "dies" (died?) in a hunting accident in 1099. I dunno whether he could get in the way or not even if you'd let him, but he might be a useful pawn, so I just thought I'd point him out in case you hadn't thought about him already. Though you probably have.

I haven't added much about
Submitted by Lothere on Wed, 02/23/2011 - 12:59.I haven't added much about William's children because so far he and his family members haven't played much of a role in the story at all. It looks like the only people I have added are the sons who became dukes/kings. His children probably are mostly in Normandy right now (along with William himself).
According to Wiki it looks like Curthose must have sired his son between 1083 and 1087. So he would be just a toddler right now.
I actually made a Curthose Sim AGES ago, thinking I would use it "soon." This was before December 1085 hit. But at least now you know the first member of that family you're likely to see will be Curthose himself. (And is he ever going to flip out when Leofric calls him runt!)
