You can make a family tree if your character ISN'T related to a Harry Potter character too. It's actually really useful to have to at least some sort of family background to your character. It gives you more RP opportunities and just makes your charrie more well rounded  I did that. Rhiannon had a fairly extensive family tree, although it didn't go much past her grandparents because I didn't feel like coming up with names for them. (I even found models for most of her family).
And then I decided to play Elizabeth, who is Rhiannon's cousin, in the school RP. And Brenna's a cousin by marriage, indirectly. She's the cousin of Rhiannon's cousin's wife, aka Elizabeth's sister-in-law. (Complex, I know.) And then Khat decided to play Asteira for a while, which we made another cousin of Brenna's, and therefore a distant cousin to Elizabeth.
But sometimes it's fun to branch out (no pun intended) and play people that are in no way related to previous charries. Like my next charrie's going to be (and the one after that. I can't seem to resist coming up with charrie ideas )
