“Art above all”

The artistic and clever Janus branch of the Cahill family was founded by Jane Cahill,the second youngest of the original Cahill family. Heartbroken by her favorite brother Luke’s departure and the death of her father Gideon Cahill,Jane Cahill knew that as young as she may have been she needed to leave Cahill Island ,She needed to share her artistic talent with the world and Cahill Island wasn’t the place for that.Jane fled to London,England where she saw that her talents went unnoticed because of her gender.Jane disguised her self as a man in order for people to notice her extraordinary talents in the arts.

Because Jane drank the Janus serum given to her by her father ,her DNA structure was genetically alter enhancing her artistic abilities .This meant her artistic skills was more advanced than the average human’s artistic skills weather it’s music or drawing to writing.These genes were passed down to some of the greatest minds in the art world from Mozart to Mary Shelley Shelley creating a line of people who valued art above every thing else all of whom are descendents of Jane Cahill.

JANUS CHARACTERISTICS

This artistic and creative branch uses their skills in a wide variety of uses from painting,singing,acting to formulating a plan for a burglary.The Janus branch are made up of some of the world’s most greatest creative minds known to mankind.For instance Vincent Van Gogh.This branch is shown to care more about art than anything else.Many Janus Kings or queens built lavish castles while their country’s people were left to starve.The Janus most often uses their artistic skills aside from sharing their talents with the world to hunting for the 39 clues,the source of the Cahill family power.

It’s stated by Dan in “Into the Gauntlet ” that the Janus can probably write novels in their sleep.This is a somewhat indication of how ingenious they are of when it comes to the arts.

I advise you don’t be fooled by these artists they are very much skilled with a sword as they are with a pen.
