What sort of family history? Father/son or nephew/uncle?
I hadn’t really thought it through, except that OUAT is weighted that way, but now I’m thinking Aladdin is the young prince. Give him a backstory like Moses, plus a few years to grow up from the self-centered boy we saw on Wonderland, and he can be a social justice crusader with anger-control issues just like Moses.
