Madame Maruschka
From Mistipedia
Madame Maruschka is a raunie of the Zarovan tribe of the Vistani. She is the granddaughter of Madame Eva, and sister of Petya. 
She was born in the distant past, and succeeded by Madame Ilka, so she is categorized as deceased. However her tribe’s existence in non-linear time would allow her to be seen in the present.
Chronology
- 455 BC The Vistana Maruschka born to the Zarovan tasque. (She will eventually take Eva’s place as Raunie.) [1]
- 477 BC Maruschka comes into the full Sight. [2]
- 495 BC Jacqueline Montarri murders Madame Eva and is horrifically cursed. Madame Maruschka becomes the new raunie of the Zarovan tribe. (Note that Madame Eva is still seen after this; this can be accounted for by her tribe’s existence in non-linear time.) [3]
- 542 BC Strahd discusses the potential threat Azalin poses with Madame Ilka, the new raunie of the Zarovan tribe (Maruschka having apparently died at some point in the last 40 years). [4]
