Frantisek Markov

Frantisek Markov is one of the domain lords of the ravenloft campaign. (AD&D). Frantisek grew up on a small pig farm outside the village of Vallaki in Barovia. He married a young woman from the village and they opened a butcher shop there. Frantisek began to experiment with the animals, performing surgical amputations, grafts, and glandular injections. Of course the animals died within a few days, but the hobby cost him nothing since he could still sell the meat. When his wife, discovered his ghastly pastime, she was revolted and threatened to leave him and tell the villagers about the meat they were buying. Furious, Frantiskek made her his next experiment. His wife lived for three days. When her body was first discovered, the villagers thought it was the body of a beast. When the truth came out, they exiled the Frantisek to the Mists. There he became the darklord of Markovia
