Boyar Lovina Wachter
Lovina Wachter was noblely born to Lord Victor Wachter and Oleka Dilisnya in Prime Material Barovia in 342 BC, the youngest of four siblings. She was the granddaughter of Pidlwik Dilisnya and Duchess Dorfniya Dilisnya and was the niece of Gertrude Dilisnya, Ivan Buchvold, Reinhold Dilisnya, Nadia Yakimov and Leo Dilisnya. She attended with her family the doomed wedding of Sergei von Zarovich in 351 BC where Leo orchestrated a massacre to wipe out the Von Zarovches. Her uncles Reinhold and Ivan, her aunt Gertrude, her mother Oleka and her three sibligns were among the many who died in Castle Ravenloft, their blood on Leo's hands. Lovina and her father Victor were among the very few who survived. Lord Victor had fought for the lives of his family and for that of his lord Count Strahd von Zarovich who also survived ... after a fashion. Lord Victor was rewarded for his loyalty by being made a boyar of the region in the vicinity of the Krezk Pass. He spent the remainder of his life searching for Leo Dilisnya and, without finding him, died in 372 BC, survived by Lovina. Lady Lovina became boyar and took up the search for Leo, locating him in 398 BC. She was determined to see Leo suffer and ultimately supplied Count Strahd von Zarovich the tomb on the Wachter Estate in which Leo was imprisoned. From which point, the Wachter family enjoyed, and prospered under, the protection of the Count of Barovia.
