Alastor Maximilian Wilhelm von und zu Schildhauer

= Childhood =
Alastor was born on the 31st of July 1898 in the city of Danzig, West Prussia within the household of impoverished landed gentry. His Father Freiherr Maximilian Gottfried III von und zu Schildhauer was an Infantry Officer and his Mother was Anneliese Dagmar von Zollern. His childhood was peaceful - his father earned a good income as an officer and his mother took care of the household. They lived on a farm near Danzig until the war changed everything; his father Gottfried went to war and much under the command of Blücher, at the last battle of Waterloo. Alastor had attended school by then and was convincing in both sport and history, although his English skills could be improved, and at the age of 16 he joined the Danzig Landwehr Regiment and went to war like his father.

After participating in several smaller operations, the decisive battle at Waterloo finally broke out at which Alastor finally saw his father again. However, the joy was short-lived because the offensive did not wait. Blood and death is nothing unusual on the battlefield, but Alastor seemed to enjoy it - especially the cannons that blew 10 enemies apart with one shot. Alastor arrived to the battle at 5:30 p.m. as part of the 2nd Brigade moving to counterattack General Mouton, Count von Lobau and helped successfully drive him back. After the battle there was a fateful encounter in which Alastor's own father died in front of his eyes and he did not even flinch, even members of the Order of Vallentius were shocked at his coldness, but thanks to his military experience and cold pragmatism they still offered him the chance to accompany them and eventually become a soldier of their new nation.
