Jack Family

The Jack Family are those humans that were descended from the legendary warrior Jack Rincewind, who is famously known for his extermination of goblins in the north of Troll Country after the Dwarf-Goblin Wars, and later went on to fight in the Battle at Mynori Point during the middle of the Fourth Age, which lead to his death. It was predicted that a descendant of Jack Rincewind, bearing the same name, would become the reincarnation of this noble knight. Therefore, nearly all of his descendants named their children Jack, in hopes that one would become the foretold reincarnation. By the time of the main storyline, the Jack Family consists of countless generations of identically named children, most of whom reside in the unnamed Portside Town near Blackbeard Port.

Of course, this prophecy has also lead to a lot of inbreeding, which lead to the Nazorath line.
