Background
Prince Fritz Dreyfus was born on July 14, 1985 to Captain Abraham Dreyfus and Ester Dreyfus (nee Lowenstein) outside of Streslau, Ruritania. Abraham Dreyfus was killed defending his friend when a duel over an anti-Semitic remark went wrong. The elder Dreyfus noted that his friend's pistol had been altered and he fought and lost to said opponent. This left Ester alone and in danger of becoming homeless. Major Ballistaire Zapt, a friend and mentor of Abraham, provided for the family until Ester's untimely death from a heart attack.

Zapt raised Fritz Dreyfus instilling a sense of duty and pride in his family. This involved being raised around the royal family since Zapt was the Chief Protector. This small group of children, including Princess Maria and her cousins, accounts for Dreyfus' formative years seeing him attend school with the royals and being accept by even the King and Queen as a friend.
