Personality: As grad student, hard working, reliable, dull, loves children. As a von Zemo, developing arrogance toward the criminal element and heroes, but very consciously hiding her feelings from the world at large. Loves to keep others in the dark.

Made a bit bi-curious by Akiko, who exploits that with no intention or desire to proceed.

Antonia (Tony) Treudike, animal wrangler for the animal husbandry department of the University. She is still living in Hoople. Paternal grandparents: Baron Ottokar Attila Kublai Tamerlane von Zemo, older brother of Baron Heinrich von Zemo, met Fanny Sweetpea Dewdrop of Grovers Corners, N.H. at a séance in Heidelberg in early June 1939 and fell in love with her, probably as a side effect of some potions with which he was experimenting. They married in June 1939 at Castle Zemo. When he came to his senses two months later, he “dismissed her.†Unfortunately from his viewpoint, the invasion of Poland was imminent and he was unable to prevent her pregnancy from continuing. Fanny returned to New Hampshire, raising their legitimate child, Frederick, under her own name. Baron Otto, as he was known, was deeply involved in the occult and had the Wehrmacht post him to central Rumania as a military observer. He died under extremely odd circumstances in February 1944 and inflicted a ghostly visitation on Beth just after the gold heist. See parts 3 and 6 of The Baroness. Through Baron Otto, Elizabeth is the grand-niece of none other than the late (for the seventh time) Baron Heinrich von Zemo. After six previous encounters with the death tax departments of half the planet, though, there was only $3,546 left for his only known heir. Fanny Dewdrop lived with her parents and then alone, supporting herself and Frederick at odd jobs, including taking in laundry. She had no other children and died in 1990. __________ Who’s Who – Zemo offshoots Her Excellency, Baroness Elizabeth Sweetwater Dewdrop Zemo von Saxe-Lurkburg-Schreckhausen, is the grandniece of Baron Heinrich Zemo (q.v.) and the granddaughter of his older brother Ottokar (q.v.) Formerly a mild-mannered graduate student in psychology at the University of Michigan, she is rapidly exploiting the mad-scientific riches of her great-uncle’s papers and hopes to enter the elite stratum of Parodyverse villains by mid-2005. His Excellency, Baron Ottokar Attila Kublai Tamerlane Zemo von Saxe-Lurkburg-Schreckhausen, older brother of Baron Heinrich Zemo, reached the rank of Gruppenfuhrer-SS while posted to Transylvania during World War II. In the course of his mystic research he became “un-alive†in extremely odd circumstances in February 1944. He has spent the last 60 years as a sort of tangible ghost continuing to look into Things That Man Was NOT Meant To Know. “Silicone Sally†Rezilyant was another grad student who endured a bite from a radioactive spider during a lightning storm, right after a boob job, while working in a lab where an accident with ‘N-rays’ occurred. Her entire body was converted into pure silicone rubber. She is currently Baroness Elizabeth’s principal assistant. Lance is Silicone Sally’s no. 1 toy boy and keeps getting sucked into the Baroness’ schemes. | |||||||
