Prince of Strelitz since Spring 1734, when his father Matthias Melnich was murdered. One of the three princes still fighting the War of the Three Princes.

What We Know (all GM)

  • Son of Matthias Melnich; succeeded him on his murder in Spring 1734.
  • Strelitz is the only princedom of Morrschatten that borders Averoigne.
  • The war his father started in Summer 1731 settled into a vicious stalemate by Fall 1732, fought largely through raids that devastate the common people, with Cardacci mercenary companies notorious for their savagery on all sides. As of 1739 Morrschatten is still at war.

Why He Matters

He inherited his father’s quarrels, and presumably his father’s papers — including whatever the household knew about Constanza Bethlen, who was raised in secret under Matthias’s roof.
