Queen Charlotte I Staunton, also known Charlotte Francesca Staunton, was the fifth ruler and final monarch of the Kingdom of Courland. She inherited the kingdom after the disappearance of her brother, in 1638. She disbanded and dissolved the kingdom a year later, in 1639. Her only act was bringing Canonism back to Courland with the influence of her uncle Charles. In the decades that followed her departure, the former Queen paid for a ship of her own, sailing the seas and acquiring a meager crew to profit as tradesman. During her ventures, she would be married by a Canonist priest to one Samwell Rivers, a male descendant of House Marbrand. This union would produce a single son, Joseph. Deciding she'd like her line to bear a different name, Charlotte would decide that her children and descendants would be named for a county once owned by Charlotte's own grandfather. Thus was born the House of Beauclair.
Charlotte, living to the advanced age of 107, would pass away on a small island keep owned by her family that sat just off the shoreline of Arcas. Her son and several retainers would note that her rage at the revival of Courland and the continued betrayals of the Baden line were what drove her to her expiration.
