Comte Godfrey de C--

Comte Godfrey de C-- (no surname given) was a French count in the story "The Alchemist" by H. P. Lovecraft. He was the son of Comte Henri, the father of Robert, and an ancestor of Comte Antoine. When the young Godfrey went missing, the blame was put on Michel Mauvais, an alchemist and black magician of evil reputation who lived in a cottage on the estate with his son Charles le Sorcier. Henri in his wrath killed Michel based on suspicion alone.
Michel had been killed unjustly, for Godfrey was later found by family servants, alive and wandering in an unused part of the castle. In revenge for the slaying of his father, Charles le Sorcier cursed Henri's entire family line and killed him with lethal poison thrown in his face before escaping into the forest.
At the age of 32 (the same age as Henri when he died), Godfrey became a victim of the family curse when he was out hunting and was killed by Charles with an arrow.
