Sir Markvart von Aulitz Characters

Text

1360/70 - 27 December 1402
He was the Hetman or Governor of Prague, who, much like those members of the nobility disgruntled with the reign of Wenceslas IV, saw in Sigismund of Luxembourg a better potential King.
His motivation, however, had more to do with money and power - he saw no future gains from Wenceslas, whereas aiding Sigismund promised better prospects. Therefore, it was not difficult for him to switch sides and in 1402, at the call of King Sigismund, he joined the siege of Kuttenberg as the leader of the Prague troops.
It was here that he was killed by an arrow after just a few days. For our purposes, we decided to delay his departure to the other world a little longer.
