Burning of the Orphanage

Approximately 1 year after the Men of the Black Hood built Castle Ravenloft to house their tobacco processing industry, it was noted by Ghoulbone, one of the Nine Lords, that Madea Fiedlerson and her husband, Kevgold Fiedlerson had been involved in an uprising in Copenhagen. This protest, which took place in the middle of the park, was an attempt to “…raise public awareness of the evils done by the Men of the Black Hood…”

Minos and Zatherall decided that Madea and Kevgold should be eliminated for their crimes, and the best way to go about that would be to burn down their home. So in the dead of night, several of the lower minions were sent to the orphanage on 7th Street to burn it to the ground. A safe was later discovered in the ashes, but there were no signs of life left in the rubble. Unbeknownst to the Men of the Black Hood, Kevgold, Madea, and Raelyn were not in the orphanage during the fire due to a business trip, and therefore survived the fire.
