Princess Adelaide Douglas Fitz-Kieth is the baseborn daughter of Prince Allistair McKieth of the Riverland. She is a Vionnan military officer and noblewoman, currently holding the rank of Lieutenant General in the Imperial Vionnan Army and serving as Princess of the Riverland and Thegn of Lawrenceville.
Adelaide was born in 1992 to the reigning Prince of the Riverland and his Mareinberger mistress and ward, Mariella de Astartia. She joined the Imperial Army in 2009 at the age of 17. Her father's death in a hunting accident in 2013 led to her acession to the Princedom in spite of her birth as the Court of Saint Romulus deemed her the closest suitable successor.
Since her acsession, Princess Adelaide has been present at a variety of significant events. She commanded the 3rd Loyalist Brigade during the Marienberg Uprising but did not see battle. She was chosen for political reasons to command the Imperial Expeditionary Force to Deadora and, at the tail end of the Second Cornellian War, commanded the Capture of Entrylli and won a second victory at the following Battle of Entrylli - alongside Zeonese forces. She also attended a gala in Fineberg, New Edom, to celebrate the closing of hostilities between most of the powers involved. A vocal supporter of the continuation of war against Deadora, Adelaide's proposal for a march on Bryn Tegna to dethrone Jacqueline Thrall was rejected by the Imperial General Staff as unrealistic.
