Prince Viktor Beckendorf

Viktor is the new Prince of the House of Kronenberg, following the death of Eric Renard. He is Sean and Eric's cousin, and a man that Eric never trusted.

History
Following Eric's death, Viktor was next in line to be Prince. After becoming Prince, he called Adalind Schade to visit him at the castle, hoping to meet up with her, to find out what she knew about his cousin's death. After Adalind claimed not to no anything, she asked him to consult over a list of suspects back in Portland. It was later revealed that he had cammer's placed in her room to spy upon her.

Later he met up with the head of the Verrat, Gregor Danilov to discus the rise in resistance activity and the visit of Sean Renard to Austria. He learned from him the solidation of the resitance groups, and put the two events together, then blamed Gregor for the failiure of capturing Sean. He calls Adalind to examine pictures and ask her some questions, although Adalind manages to leave, Viktor is suspicious of her answers, over why Sean Renard would visit her. And begins to suspect that it might be Sean's child, not Eric's she is carrying. He then orders Gregor to find out the father "Sooner rather than Later"

Later he is met by Stefania Vaduva Popescu, who is working with Adalind over her child. It turns out that Stefania beytrayed Adalind to Viktor, she tells the Prince Adalind is near giving birth and suggests he take her to the castle now if he wants to. Viktor continues to spy on Adalind with his cameras. However Adalind escapes (because Renard's spy warned him of the plot, and Sean managed to arrange her escape) Viktor summons Stefania believing she has beytrayed him, however Stefania denies this and claims she never would, knowing how dangerous he is. And tells him someone close to him has beytrayed them both.
