Django Rosenberg

Django Rosenberg was the champion of the Montreuil Manouches, a German-speaking gypsy clan living in and near a suburb of Paris (Montreuil, soon cowed into complete silence to authorites vis-a-vis any gypsy-related crimes), and since some point in mid-1914 of their new patron and benefactor: Schwarzmeer, though they likely knew him as Herr Drachenberg. He worked diligently on the behalf of this great man and his agents, but ended up increasingly butting heads with competing Schwarzmeer groups in the City of Light, most notably the Great Occluded Society of Ishtar (more popularly known as the Black Moon Cult) and the dreaded Belgian Syndicate.

After taking part in the "military intelligence auction" (unbeknownst to him, set up by his master's enemy Gregor Kovacs), he and his clansmen went on the offensive against Quadruple Pierre and his group, as part of a general push into Paris and to take advantage of his embarrassment. At the same time, they began to intensify the search for their master's lost scripter, teaming up with the Belgians and some other Schwarzmeer agents to shut out the ambitious but arrogant and heavy-handed Black Moon Cult. They received a handful of useful gadgets and a list of names that may be able to help them. But despite this assistance and the finesse and cunning they prided themselves on, the Manouches, and Django himself, had suffered a number of increasingly costly setbacks in their overzealous efforts, clashing with the likes of the aforementioned Gregor as well as Valentine Dulac and Zack Zimmerman. Displeased with their failures and the attention they drew to themselves, as well as with the missteps of his other minions, Schwarzmeer sent Maius to exterminate his distant kin, which he did with his usual unquestioning loyalty and extreme violence. Django and a handful of his men somehow survived.

Up until then, Django refused to use the black dragon amulet he was given, but now he had nothing to lose; he and his men transformed into monsters to survive and track down Gregor to get at least some partial revenge and vindication. They confronted him and several allies of convenience, including Zack and Pierre, as they were fleeing the Black Moon Cult's headquarter-temple, by then already under attack as the next on Maius' list. But their monstrification was simply not enough, and they died at the hands of their assembled enemies, barely slowing them down.
