Two or more characters belong to the same family in a given story. This story is then adapted into a new work and while these characters are still presented as being related, exactly how they're related differs from the original.
This could be done for a few different reasons. The creators may want to explore a different relationship dynamic between the characters or add a certain plotline that works better if their relation to each other is tweaked, such as by adding Half-Sibling Angst, an Archnemesis Dad, and so forth. Or maybe they want to simplify things by merging multiple characters into one, or trim certain details out of pragmatism if it doesn't affect the plot or characters significantly (for example, it's easier to establish that "Bob is Alice's brother" rather than having to explain he's actually "her second cousin-once-removed who was raised by her parents and so they're Like Brother and Sister anyway"). In the case of some stories, such as myths and legends, it may not even be entirely clear which version of a family tree is correct or regarded as 'canon', so the creators of the adaptation have to choose whichever one they feel fits best.
A subtrope of Adaptation Relationship Overhaul and can overlap with Adaptational Upbringing Change. If the change results in a character moving forwards or backwards a few generations, it could result in an Age Lift too. It may also result in an Adaptation Name Change, especially in regards to surnames. See also Related in the Adaptation, Unrelated in the Adaptation and Promoted to Love Interest.
See Historical Relationship Overhaul for when this happens to real people.

Katy: In What Katy Did, the Carr children are full siblings who live with their widowed father and his sister, Izzie, who joined the household after Mrs Carr died. Katy by Jacqueline Wilson, which updates the setting from the 1860s to the 2010s, changes Izzie from Dr Carr's sister to his second wife and also makes her the biological mother of all the children except Katy and Clover, who are the daughters of Dr Carr's first wife. In addition, Elsie is, in this version, Izzie's daughter from a previous relationship, making her Dr Carr's stepdaughter.

The Rise of Skywalker reveals that Rey is the paternal granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine. However, the novelization The Rise of Skywalker: Expanded Edition states that Palpatine's "son" is actually a clone, so while there's still shared DNA between them, Rey technically isn't his real granddaughter (genetically she could be considered his daughter). The movie doesn't mention this and there she is specifically referred to as Palpatine's "granddaughter", so it's unclear which version is canon. note The novelization appears to be based on an earlier version of the film's script, like many novelizations, so not everything in it matches up with the finished film.

In the Over the Garden Wall fanfic "A Light for the Lost and the Meek," Wirt and Greg are stepbrothers instead of half-brothers. It's an Age Swap AU, so this explains how Wirt's mom and Greg's dad can be married while Wirt still has a Disappeared Dad of his own. It also shifts their relationship a little, as the two are still adjusting to their new family arrangement.

In the Thor comics, Hela is usually Loki's daughter or at least his creation. In Thor: Ragnarok she's his long lost sister (or possibly half-sister, it's never stated who her mother is). As Loki was adopted by his parents there's no longer a biological connection between him and Hela, though it adds a biological connection between Hela and Thor, as they share a father.

The Sandman: In the comic book, Unity Kincaid is the mother of Miranda, who is the mother of Rose Walker. The TV version stretches out the timeline (the main storyline gets a Setting Update from the 1990s to the 2020s, but Unity's childhood can't be shifted because it's pinned to historical events in the 1910s) and adds an extra generation: Miranda is Unity's granddaughter, and Rose is Unity's great-granddaughter.

Fullmetal Alchemist: In the manga, all non-human-based homunculi can be compared to being Ed and Al's cousins, as they were created from Father, who is effectively a clone of Hohenheim. However, in the anime Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), they were the product of failed human transmutation, so Sloth, who was made from Trisha, and Envy, who was Hohenheim's son with Dante are the boys' mother and half brother, respectively.

The Witcher (2019): Combined with slight Adaptational Backstory Change in the case of Yennefer and her father. In the books, Yennefer was raised by both her biological parents and gained her quarter-elf heritage through her mother. In the series, Yennefer reveals the man who raised her was her stepfather; her biological father was a half-elf who was killed during the Great Cleansing and it's from him rather than her mother that she gets her elf heritage. In both cases Yenn's father figures treated her poorly and she disowns them (book Yen's father beat her and abandoned her; show Yen's stepfather also abuses her and sells her off for less than a pig, declaring she's no daughter of his).

Some adaptations of Hamlet suggest that Claudius is Hamlet's true biological father rather than being his uncle, which is certainly a possibility depending upon whether Claudius and Gertrude were having an affair and if so, how long it was going on. In the original play, Claudius does refer to Hamlet as his "son"; he's likely referring to the fact Hamlet is his stepson via his marriage to Gertrude, though some adaptations take this literally to add yet more angst and drama to the story.

Downplayed example in Hero Chat and Lady Luck (Miraculous Ladybug), both by the same author. In Miraculous Ladybug, Juleka and Luka Couffaine are twins. In Cornerverse's stories, the two are half-siblings with different fathers, with Luka being two years older than Juleka.

Poirot:
In The Mysterious Affair at Styles, Mrs. Inglethorp is John and Lawrence's birth mother rather than stepmother (for the sake of Pragmatic Adaptation, since she is a full-fledged Parental Substitute to them in the book).
In The Murder on the Links, Jack Renauld is Paul Renauld's adopted stepson rather than son. Their relationship is way, way colder than in the book.

Dragon Ball:
In Journey to the West Ox-King aka Bull Demon King is the husband of Princess Iron Fan, in Dragon Ball Chi-Chi, Iron Fan’s expy is Ox King’s daughter instead. Furthermore Sun Wukong was the sworn brother of Ox King in the epic while Son Goku is Ox King’s son-in-law instead with Goku marrying Chi-Chi. Funnily enough in the book Wukong does disguise himself as Princess Iron Fan’s husband to fool her at one point.
Dragon Ball GT: after the Time Skip in the final episode, the character Goku Jr., at least in Funimation's English dub, is said to be Pan's grandson. In Japanese, however, he is her great-great grandson, a whole another two generations apart.

Camelot depicts Morgan and Arthur as paternal half-siblings fathered by Uther, with Igraine being Morgan's hated stepmother. In the original legends, Igraine is the mother of both of them and Morgan was fathered by Gorlois. This drives much of the conflict in the series, as Morgan never knew Arthur existed until after Uther's death and believes she should be the rightful heir as Uther's firstborn.

The Mists of Avalon:
This story, along with Excalibur a few years earlier, served as a Trope Codifier for the idea that Morgan (Morgaine) is Mordred's mother rather than his aunt; in earlier versions of the Arthurian Legend, it's Morgan's sister Morgause instead.
Taking it further, Morgause is Morgaine's aunt in this series (in other words, Igraine's sister rather than her daughter), who fosters Mordred. Yvain also appears, but is Morgaine's foster son rather than her biological offspring.
Lancelot is the biological son of Vivian (The Lady of the Lake) rather than being adopted.

Iron Man: With Arno Stark Adapted Out, Tony Stark becomes Howard's biological son instead of his adopted son like the comics. It bears noting that this fact about Tony (and Arno himself) were introduced retroactively, after the MCU had already been established, so it was likely not followed for the sake of brevity.
Avengers: Endgame introduces Morgan Stark, Tony’s daughter with Pepper who was born during the five year Time Skip. In the comics, Morgan is Tony’s male cousin, who antagonised Tony out of Revenge for his father Edward Stark being (supposedly) snubbed by his older brother Howard... There’s also some Decomposite Character here, as Tony wanted to name their child after Pepper’s uncle Morgan.

In The Squire's Tales, which retells Arthurian Legend:
Alexander and Cliges are brothers instead of a father and son, in order to tell both of their romances without necessitating a Time Skip. This means that Alis is Alexander's uncle instead of his brother.
In the legends, Tor was (Depending on the Writer) conceived when King Pellinore had sex with a peasant woman "half by force," then raised by the woman's husband Aries—because obviously, Tor couldn't be a competent knight unless he actually had noble blood. In this series he's Aries' biological son, with no connection to Pellinore.

Moving In: In The Loud House, all the Loud siblings are biologically related to each other, and Lynn Sr. and Rita have been married for a long time. In this fanfic, the Loud sisters and Lincoln are stepsiblings-to-be who have only recently met each other because Lincoln and Rita moved into the Loud House after the latter and Lynn Sr. got engaged to each other. This also means that Pop-Pop goes from being the Loud siblings' maternal grandfather to only being Lincoln's biological grandfather (who helped Rita raise Lincoln because Lincoln's biological father wants nothing to do with him) since Lincoln is Rita's only biological child in this story.

In the original series, Webby Vanderquack is the granddaughter of Scrooge McDuck's housekeeper, Bentina Beakley. In the series finale of the 2017 reboot, however, it's revealed that Beakley isn't Webby's biological grandmother — she rescued an infant Webby from the F.O.W.L. laboratory where she was created and effectively adopted her, causing Webby much angst when she finds out she'd been lied to her whole life. On that note, it also turns out that she was created from Scrooge's DNA, meaning that he's her biological father rather than an Honorary Uncle.

It bears noting that this fact about Tony (and Arno himself) were introduced retroactively, after the MCU had already been established, so it was likely not followed for the sake of brevity.

In the comics, Morgan is Tony’s male cousin, who antagonised Tony out of Revenge for his father Edward Stark being (supposedly) snubbed by his older brother Howard... There’s also some Decomposite Character here, as Tony wanted to name their child after Pepper’s uncle Morgan.
Thor establishes that the title character is now the son of Frigga; in the comics, he is her stepson with his biological mother being Gaia who’s Adapted Out.
Black Panther: T'Challa gets this twice-over, as he and Shuri go from paternal half-siblings to having the same mother as well as the same father (in the comics Ramonda is T'Challa's stepmother).
In the Thor comics, Hela is usually Loki's daughter or at least his creation. In Thor: Ragnarok she's his long lost sister (or possibly half-sister, it's never stated who her mother is). As Loki was adopted by his parents there's no longer a biological connection between him and Hela, though it adds a biological connection between Hela and Thor, as they share a father.
In the comics, Nebula is Thanos' granddaughter, but in the MCU, she is Thanos' adoptive daughter.
Black Widow: Alexei Shostakov (Red Guardian) was Natasha Romanoff's ex-husband in the comics; here, due to Natasha's Age Liftnote in the comics, Natasha is Older Than She Looks due to being given a formula to halt her aging; in the MCU, the formula is Adapted Out (probably for pragmatic reasons due to the actors aging in real time), and Natasha is instead portrayed as a Badass Normal, Alexeinote who couldn't be aged down too far without slipping into In Name Only territory, as his identity as a Soviet answer to Captain America is a crucial part of his character, and much of the MCU takes place long after the fall of the Soviet Union; in the film, Alexei is said to have been active as Red Guardian during the 80s is instead portrayed as her adoptive father... kind of (it was a cover identity for a mission while Natasha was young, but the "family", especially Yelena, felt like it was real).
In both the comics and myths Thor’s daughter (Thrúd in Edda, Torunn in Marvel) is biological, in Thor: Love and Thunder his daughter Love is instead adoptive with her biological father Gorr giving her to him before dying. Though as a Casting Gag she’s played by Chris Hemsworth's actual daughter.

X-Men Film Series: According to producer Simon Kinberg Azazel from X-Men: First Class is actually Mystique’s father, rather than her lover/baby daddy (Nightcrawler being their son) like in the comics with his off-screen death in X-Men: Days of Future Past supposedly adding an hidden extra layer of tragedy to when Raven finds out. Given the films’ timeline (as jumbled and inconsistent as it is) it would’ve probably been much simpler and logical to just use the comic version of their relationship, particularly given Mystique joins Azazel‘s team a few decades before Kurt (another devilish looking teleporter) makes his debut in X-Men: Apocalypse as a young man.

Ascendance of a Bookworm has this happen in-universe. Elvira often writes stories based on true events, but often changes details for the sake of the real people's privacy (though often not enough to keep people who were actually around from catching on). One such changes consists of changing a Promotion to Parent situation from the real events into an actual parent and child.

The original Beetlejuice movie makes it clear than Delia is Lydia's stepmother - whatever happened to Lydia's biological mother (Charles Deetz's previous wife) is never made clear. However, this is never mentioned in the animated series, which depicts Delia and Lydia's relationship as if they were actually mother and daughter (assuming that Lydia addressing Delia as "Mom" instead of by her given name isn't simply due to being on better terms with her than in the film).

Ant-Man: In Marvel Comics 2 and the MCU Hank and Janet have a daughter named Hope. In the 616 universe Nadia (Russian for “Hope�) is still Hank’s daughter but Janet’s adoptive daughter instead with her birth mother being Maria Trovaya, Hank’s long dead first wife, saving Janet from needing to give birth herself. Arguably fitting given Maria was a Identical Stranger to Janet anyway.

Batman:
In the post-Crisis DCU Barbara Gordon was established to be Commissioner Gordon's niece, who was raised by him after Roger and Thelma Gordon died in a car accident, presumably to explain her absence from Batman: Year One, where Jim's family consists of him, his wife Barbara, and the infant James Jr. A later story in Gotham Knights suggested that maybe she was really the daughter of Jim and Thelma, but this never gets resolved. The New 52 returns her to being the daughter of Jim and the elder Barbara.
Batman: Zero Year reintroduces Bruce's Uncle Philip, who first appeared in pre-Crisis contintuity, but in this version he's Bruce's maternal uncle Philip Kane, rather than his paternal uncle Philip Wayne.

The Flash (2014):
Wally West is Iris' long-lost brother rather than her nephew like he is in the comics.
Thanks to being a Composite Character with their respective mother and father, the siblings known as the Tornado Twins, XS and Impulse are Barry and Iris's children instead of grandchildren. This also changed XS and Impulse's own relationship as they're now siblings, not cousins as in the comics.

Some of the canon family trees With Pearl and Ruby Glowing have been rearranged, some of them in order to fit the story's timeline.
Stan and Ford become Dipper and Mabel's uncles instead of great-uncles.
In Coco, Miguel is Coco and Julio's great-grandson and Hector and Imelda's great-great-gradson. In this fic, Coco is Luisa's sister and Miguel's Aunt, and Imelda and Hector are now Miguel's grandparents.
Lily Loud becomes Leni's Child by Rape, Rita and Lynn Sr.'s granddaughter, and the other Loud siblings' niece. However, Rita and Lynn Sr. decided that Leni isn't ready to be a mother, so they pretend that Lily is one of the Loud siblings.

Legend of the Seeker:
In the Sword of Truth books, Darken Rahl turns out to be Richard's father. In the TV series, they're revealed to be half-brothers, giving them a Cain and Abel dynamic.
This in turn results in Panis Rahl being Richard's father, rather than his grandfather. Panis is also the father of Jennsen Rahl, making her Richard's full sister and Darken's half-sister, whereas in the books Darken is her father and Richard is her half-brother by a different mother.

In the Devil May Cry canon, Nero is Vergil's son and Dante's nephew. In Fairy May Cry, it's revealed he's the artificial son of Sparda and an unnamed nun of the Order of the Sword, making him Dante's and Vergil's half-brother.

The Haunting of Bly Manor: In The Turn of the Screw, siblings Flora and Miles are under the guardianship of their uncle after their parents died. In this adaptation it's revealed that Flora is in fact her 'uncle's' biological daughter, as he had an affair with his sister-in-law. He never tells her this out guilt and respect for his brother, who figured out the truth but still regarded Flora as his daughter.

In the original 1991 version of Rugrats, Buster and Edwin Carmichael were Susie's older brothers. In the 2021 reboot, Lucy and Randy don't appear to have any children other than Susie, and when Buster and Edwin do appear in Season 2's "Baby Talk", they are depicted as Susie's cousins.

Avengers: Endgame introduces Morgan Stark, Tony’s daughter with Pepper who was born during the five year Time Skip. In the comics, Morgan is Tony’s male cousin, who antagonised Tony out of Revenge for his father Edward Stark being (supposedly) snubbed by his older brother Howard... There’s also some Decomposite Character here, as Tony wanted to name their child after Pepper’s uncle Morgan.

Clueless has an unusual case in which the characters are technically no longer related. In Emma (upon which Clueless is loosely based), George Knightley is the brother of Emma's brother-in-law (her sister is married to his brother). In this film, Cher is an only child and the Knightley analog Josh is her ex-stepbrother (her father had since divorced his mother) who hangs around because he still has a good relationship with her dad.

In the original Orphan Black, the protagonist's adoptive mother turns out to be her biological daughter due to her being the clone of the latter's mother. In the Japanese remake Orphan Black: 7 Genes, she's her maternal aunt instead due to the protagonist's surrogate mother in the original now being her biological one (itself an example of this trope) and the adoptive one's sister.

Game of Thrones:
Lady Alys Karstark was the daughter of Lord Rickard Karstark in A Song of Ice and Fire, but in the show she's his granddaughter instead, being the daughter and heir of Rickard's Canon Foreigner son Harrald Karstark.
Maester Aemon was the great-uncle of Mad King Aerys and by extension, the great-great-uncle of Rhaegar, Viserys and Daenerys in the book. The show removes a generation and makes him into the Mad King's uncle, and by extension, Daenerys and her brothers' great-uncle.
As previously mentioned, an entire generation of the Targaryen family is omitted from the show, making King Aegon V the father of King Aerys II, instead of his grandfather. This also means Princess Rhaelle Targaryen, the grandmother of Robert, Stannis, and Renly, has been Adapted Out. As a result, the Baratheon brothers are no longer the second cousins of Daenerys, Rhaegar, and Viserys.
Partly because of the Age Lift and narrative convenience, King Jaehaerys II is not the father of Aerys II; rather, it is King Aegon V, the star of Tales of Dunk and Egg, who is the father of the Mad King and grandfather to Daenerys, rather than her great-grandfather.

There's also Grandmama, who was originally Morticia's mother in the old comic strips, but the adaptations have constantly gone back and forth between making her Morticia's or Gomez's mother, changing her name if necessary (Grandmama Frump if she's Morticia's). This means that in some of the versions where Gomez and Fester are brothers, she becomes Fester's mother too. The musical lampshades this when Morticia complains about Gomez's mother overstaying her welcome, and he replies, "My mother? I thought she was your mother!"

Arthur, King of Time and Space retells the Arthurian legends in multiple alternate timelines, with some characters having different relationships in different timelines.
Mordred is usually Arthur's son, but in the base medieval setting his mother is Arthur's scheming half-sister Morgause, Morgan in the space arc, and Guinevere in the modern setting.
Galahad's mother in the modern arc is also Guinevere, though his biological father's still Lancelot.
In the medieval setting (and possibly the space setting) Nimue is Merlin's lover as well as his apprentice, while in the modern arc she's his foster daughter and in the Western timeline they never met.

A Different Outcome: Many cats in ThunderClan have different biological parents than in canon in order for their fur colors to make sense given how cat genetics work.
Icepaw's biological father is Cloudtail instead of Dustpelt because her pure white pelt is otherwise impossible for her to have due to Dustpelt and Ferncloud lacking any white fur themselves.
Several familial relationships are overturned due to how cats inherit orange fur.
Leafpool isn't the biological child of Firestar and Sandstorm, as both of them having orange fur means their offspring must be orange and she's brown and white. She's actually Firestar's niece, as his sister Princess shares Leafpool's coloring and she gave her up to be raised in ThunderClan. By extension, this also makes Leafpool Squirrelflight's first cousin once removed instead of her sister and vice-versa with Cloudtail.
Lionblaze actually is the biological son of Squirrelflight instead of her nephew, as male orange cats must have a mother that's at least partially orange and Leafpool doesn't have orange fur. As Jayfeather and Hollyleaf are still Leafpool's children and Leafpool herself is actually Firestar's niece, this means Lionblaze is their second cousin instead of their brother.
The infidelity of Millie and Daisy is discovered because they both have daughters (Blossomkit and Rosekit) with at least some orange fur; cats can only have that color if at least one of their parents does and neither their mothers or the supposed fathers (Graystripe and Spiderleg) have orange. The actual father of both kits is heavily implied to be the orange Thornclaw.
Daisy isn't the biological mother of her canon first litter of kits because a female orange cat's offspring are always at least partially orange, which none of those kits are. The lack of orange is also one of the reasons Daisy's son from her second litter, Toadkit, is determined to not be related to either of his canon parents, in addition to Spiderleg's implausible coat being taken as a sign he's infertile. Toadkit's biological parents are actually Dustpelt and Ferncloud, with the latter adopting him out because they already had lots of kits.
Sorreltail's kits besides Cinderheart are implied to have Thornclaw as their biological father instead of Brackenfur, as Sorreltail and Thornclaw start acting suspicious when the topic is brought up.

By the Sea: A milder example; the characters in this story who were Jango Fett's engineered clones (most of whom he didn't consider to be family) in Star Wars canon are, in this fic, instead his natural-born children, from a union with an OC mermaid named Va'yen. He also "only" has twelve kids, not three million clones. Boba also isn't anything special compared to his older brothers, other than being the youngest of his kids.

Young Justice (2010):
Tara Markov's comics counterpart is an illegitimate child of the king of Markovia and half-sister to princes Brion and Gregor. Here she is their full-blooded sister and a member of the royal family. This changes the circumstances and implications of her disappearance: her comics counterpart disappeared to avoid scandal and became a mercenary; in the show, she's a princess whose kidnapping is a major incident.
Ma'alefa'ak is the code name of M'gann's brother M'Comm, making him Martian Manhunter's nephew. In the comics, he's J'onn's Evil Twin and "Ma'alefa'ak" is his actual name.

Motoko and Tsuruko are half-sisters as opposed to full-blood sisters; this is due to the Crimson Red Vermillion that their family has, damaging their family dynamics. Tsuruko's mother lost herself to her demonic blood forcing the sisters' father to kill his wife. As for Motoko's mother, she is implied to have been a Synchronizer who sacrificed herself to bring her husband back from that same brink.

Superman & Batman: Generations:
Supergirl in this continuity is Superman's daughter rather than his cousin. This also makes Lois Lane her mother.
Because this continuity follows a "characters age in real time" gimmick, Barbara Gordon is Jim Gordon's granddaughter instead of his daughter, acknowledging that she made her debut in the 1960s. She is also therefore Tony Gordon's daughter, rather than his sister as she was on Earth-One.

Downplayed with Naruto in Son of the Sannin, as his biological connection with several characters remains the same but ends up having a more direct familial connection to them.
Tsunade is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, but her exact relationship to Naruto in canon was never made clear. Here, they're adoptive mother and son.
Similarly, Karin is also a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, but the fact that she and Naruto would technically be related never comes up. Here, they refer to themselves as cousins and are even more closely related by the time of the epilogue as their spouses are first cousins.
Sasuke and Naruto are distant cousins due to the Uzumaki and Uchiha being sibling clans, but the two also end up being related by marriage when Sasuke's cousin Shisui marries Naruto's adoptive sister Shizune.

An implied example occurs in Ophelia. During an argument with Gertrude, Hamlet's father suggests that his brother Claudius isn't his father's son because their mother had an affair, which may make Claudius and Hamlet Sr. maternal half-brothers. There was never any indication of them being anything but full siblings in Hamlet; it never comes up again in this film so we don't know the truth.

DuckTales:
In the original series, Webby Vanderquack is the granddaughter of Scrooge McDuck's housekeeper, Bentina Beakley. In the series finale of the 2017 reboot, however, it's revealed that Beakley isn't Webby's biological grandmother — she rescued an infant Webby from the F.O.W.L. laboratory where she was created and effectively adopted her, causing Webby much angst when she finds out she'd been lied to her whole life. On that note, it also turns out that she was created from Scrooge's DNA, meaning that he's her biological father rather than an Honorary Uncle.
This pertains to the Beagle family, relative to both the original Barks comics and the 1987 series, concerning Matilda "Ma" Beagle. In the former, Grandpappy Beagle is the patriarch of the family while in the show he'd replaced by Ma Beagle; in the 2017 reboot, a flashback reveals that he's her grandfather instead and thus the great-grandfather of the current generation of Beagles. Additionally, several of 1987!Ma's sons are reimagined as Grandpappy's sons instead, making them her uncles (and one possibly her father); granted 2017!Ma still has over two dozen sons revealed…

In Master of the Universe, a Twilight fanfic which later became Fifty Shades of Grey, Rosalie (Kate in Fifty Shades) and Jasper (Ethan in Fifty Shades) are presented as blood siblings, while in Twilight they're adopted siblings who sometimes pretend to be blood related. Seeing as Master of the Universe is a mundane fic where Jasper and Rosalie aren't vampires or part of the Cullen family, there's not much point emphasizing they're adopted siblings because it has no relevance to the plot or characters.

In the German language Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus, at the end of the Lumberjack Song, the lumberjack refers to "mein Onkel Walter" (Uncle Walter) rather than "my dear papa", in order to rhyme with "Bustenhalter".

Nasuverse: In the majority of Arthurian legends, Morgan is treated as the half-sister of King Arthur and the daughter of Igraine and Tintagel. In Fate/Grand Order, It is revealed that Morgan was the daughter of both Igraine and Uther Pendragom while they were married, making her Altria's legitimate sister. It is also revealed that Morgan is a Composite Character of Viviane/Nimue, making Lancelot her adoptive child (at least with her Nimue personality) rather than a crush at most.

In Journey to the West Ox-King aka Bull Demon King is the husband of Princess Iron Fan, in Dragon Ball Chi-Chi, Iron Fan’s expy is Ox King’s daughter instead. Furthermore Sun Wukong was the sworn brother of Ox King in the epic while Son Goku is Ox King’s son-in-law instead with Goku marrying Chi-Chi. Funnily enough in the book Wukong does disguise himself as Princess Iron Fan’s husband to fool her at one point.

Hades: In Classical Mythology, Persephone is the daughter of Zeus and Demeter, who are brother and sister, and is married to their brother Hades. In the game's version of this family tree, Zeus and Demeter are foster-siblings and Persephone is the daughter of Demeter and a mortal, significantly toning down the incest in her relationship with Hades.

The Addams Family:
In the TV series, Fester is Morticia's uncle, hence why even she and Gomez address him as "Uncle Fester". But in the films, he's Gomez's brother and only an uncle to Pugsley and Wednesday. This was due to Gomez and Fester's dynamic chemistry in the TV series making it hard to believe they were only in-laws. This change remained in future adaptations, even though Fester doesn't seem to share Gomez's Spanish heritage with no indication that he's adopted.
There's also Grandmama, who was originally Morticia's mother in the old comic strips, but the adaptations have constantly gone back and forth between making her Morticia's or Gomez's mother, changing her name if necessary (Grandmama Frump if she's Morticia's). This means that in some of the versions where Gomez and Fester are brothers, she becomes Fester's mother too. The musical lampshades this when Morticia complains about Gomez's mother overstaying her welcome, and he replies, "My mother? I thought she was your mother!"

In Encanto, it's a Fandom-Specific Plot to write fanfics where Bruno is Mirabel's father instead of her uncle:
While Mirabel was Julieta and Agustín's daughter in canon, in La polilla y la mariposa, they adopted her after she didn't get her gift. She is actually the daughter of Bruno and his wife Anná.
While Mirabel was Bruno's niece in canon, in where the dandylions play, she's his daughter.
In ⫚ - His Daughters, The Miracles of the family, while Isabela, Luisa and Mirabel were Julieta and Agustín's daughters with Bruno as their uncle, here Bruno and Maria are their parents.
While Félix and Pepa are his parents in canon, Past & Future has Camilo as Bruno's son with Victoria.
While Mirabel was Julieta and Agustín's third daughter and Isabela and Luisa's younger sister in canon, in The Seer and His Butterfly she's Bruno's daughter, later to be raised as her Tía Pepa and Tío Félix's daughter when he disappears.

NieR: In the Replicant version, the original Japanese version, the titular protagonist is Yonah's brother, while in the Gestalt version, which till the remake was the only version in the West, he's Yonah's father. The designs, of course, were changed accordingly to each version, with Brother Nier having a much more feminine, lithe design, while Father Nier is much more typically masculine and is a muscular Walking Shirtless Scene. This was mostly done because it was believed that the Western audience would have appreciated an older and more mature protagonist.

Merlin (2008):
Morgana and Arthur are revealed as paternal half-siblings. In the Arthurian legends, they're usually maternal half-siblings. Interestingly, the series does still feature Gorlois, Morgana's legendary father - Morgana believed he was her father for much of her life, not knowing Uther secretly had an affair with her mother. This partly explains why Uther took on Morgana as his ward after her parents died, though it also results in Morgana resenting Uther more than ever for never acknowledging her as his child. It also drives her ambition to become Queen of Camelot eventually, because the way she sees it she has just as much right to rule as Arthur.
Morgause is still Morgana's sister, but they're maternal half-sisters rather than full sisters and Morgause has no biological connection to Arthur here. Upon learning her sister has a claim to the throne, Morgause plots to make Morgana queen to get rid of Uther and undo his Ban on Magic.

Fantastic Four (2015): In the comics, Sue Storm is the biological daughter of Franklin Storm and biological sister of Johnny Storm. In this film, she was adopted into the Storm family; this is mostly because Michael B. Jordan and Reg E. Cathey, both of whom are black, were cast as Johnny and Franklin, respectively, while Kate Mara, who is white, was cast as Sue. (Josh Trank stated he wanted to cast a black actress as Sue, presumably averting this trope, but the higher-ups vetoed it).

Sabrina the Teenage Witch: In the original comics, Aunt Hilda and Aunt Zelda were Honorary Aunts to Sabrina: technically, they were really her mothers, since they accidentally created her by magic. In the sitcom, however, they're her actual paternal aunts. This change was subsequently retconned into the comics too, and carried over to Sabrina: The Animated Series and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

Promises of a Wandering Hero:
Motoko and Tsuruko are half-sisters as opposed to full-blood sisters; this is due to the Crimson Red Vermillion that their family has, damaging their family dynamics. Tsuruko's mother lost herself to her demonic blood forcing the sisters' father to kill his wife. As for Motoko's mother, she is implied to have been a Synchronizer who sacrificed herself to bring her husband back from that same brink.
Mei and Naru are stepsisters in the Akamatsuverse canon, here they're half-sisters.

Stuart Little: In the original book, Stuart is the Littles' biological son...even though his parents are human and he's a mouse (or at least looks like a mouse, which is never explained). The film makes him their adopted son instead, as it's less odd (though everyone is still unperturbed about anthropomorphic mice). It adds a plot in which his adoptive human brother George, who is initially disappointed by Stuart, comes to accept him; family cat Snowbell also temporarily tricks Stuart into leaving the family by pretending to have found Stuart's birth parents (who actually died when he was a baby).
