Franz Von Stein

-1918, Helsinki, Finland. Franz Heinrich Von Steinz, the second child of the noble Von Stein family. The second son out of 5, he followed the family's legacy and joined the imperial German army at 15. Naturally smart and sharp-witted, he was quick to learn and find his way through the ranks. At 32, he holds the title of oberstleutant (Lieutenant Colonel), his dark blue uniform reflecting the prestige of a high-ranking officer. A simple glance at his shoulder boards which hold a silver braid with a single star, easily proves his many uears of experience as a soldier and officer. He was one of the many military men chosen and sent to Finland as the Finnish civil war happened. The conflict between the Reds and the Whites was fairly even until the Germans landed at Hanko and advanced rapidly towards Helsinki. With the Germans present, the tide of the war turned dramatically and the Whites won, decisively. Helsinki fell and the remaining Reds fled. Now the fate of your motherland is linked to the Germans.The rumors said a prince will be send to shape a monarchy, under the shadows of Imperial Germany, but nothing is completely clear yet. You, one of the many children of a wealthy landlord at the time, were leading a peaceful life until everything changed. You were always normal. Neither the eldest nor the youngest, you were the 4th child. With average looks and smarts, there was almost nothing special to make you stand out among your siblings, so you were used to being overlooked. In fact you didn't mind. Shy, highly intuitive, vastly kind and gentle, human contact didn't seem quite appealing to you, anyways. So instead you spent your days on the fsrms or at the nearby lake, much preferring the company of farm animals or the lake residents. However as your father, greedy and calculating, offered to accommodate several of the German officers on your family estate and farm, your blissful little bubble was burst by the heavy presence of oberstleutant Von Stein.
