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 Riverland-Palatinate and Thegn of Lawrenceville.

Adelaide was born in 1992 to the reigning Prince of Riverland-Palatinate and his Mareinberger mistress and ward, Maria 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.

Early Life and Parentage

From 1989 to 1992, Prince Allistair McKieth was responsible for the education of the teenage Maria de Astartia, daughter of the Viscomte de Astartia. In that time, at some point after the noblewoman's 17th birthday in March 1990, the Prince commenced a relationship with her. This remained undiscovered until, in January 1992, it was discovered that De Astartia was pregnant. Though initially secretive, Prince Allistair admitted that the child was his and Adelaide was born in Lawrenceburgh on 11th May 1992.
