Biography

Early Life

Frederick Staunton was born to Duke Alexander Staunton and Princess Philippa Maria of Alstion in the Duchy of Courland in 1559. Frederick was born just as the Riga War began. After the disastrous Battle of the Curon Forest and the following Siege of Kraken’s Watch, Frederick, his brother Tobias and his older brother Sven were moved to the safety of the Grand Kingdom of Urguan with Edward Staunton, his great uncle. During his stay in the Grand Kingdom of Urguan, he attended the Dwarven court frequently. Through observation, he acquired the stoic, diplomatic nature associated with the Dwarven people.

After the Courlandic victory at the Battle of Westmark and the subsequent creation of the Kingdom of Courland, Frederick and his brothers attempted to return to Courland as per request of his father, however before he reached the Duchy, a successful coup of Aleksander Staunton and his followers took place.
