Category:Dilisnya Family

The Dilisnya family had spent over two centuries hiding itself from the wrath of Count Strahd von Zarovich within the narrow confines of Barovia. The annexation of Mordent by the Mists in 579 BC opened an outlet for immigration to the west. That outlet widened with the incorporation of Gundarak in 593 BC and of Invidia in 603 BC. Leo Dilisnya, descended from Leo Dilisnya, was the son of one of the first Dilisnyas to establish himself and his family openly in the domain of Mordent. In Mordent the family was viewed with a great deal of suspicion. Lev married Elena Almeida and she bore him three children, Yakov Dilisnya and Oleska Dilisnya in 640 BC and Stepan Dilisnya in 650 BC. The family lived in a luxurious manor built by Lev's father in northern Mordent. Elena died in 651 BC. Within a year, Lev had taken Anna Kurdzeil as his second wife. She bore him two children, Richtor Dilisnya in 658 BC and Camille Dilisnya in 662 BC. An illegitimate child was also conceived with Niki Romanoff and born in 659 BC. There would be seven grandchildren, including Clifford Dilisnya and Virginia Dilisnya, both werewolves, and Anton Boritsi, Ivana Boritsi and Sulo Boritsi, not werewolves.
