See Vargis Vallakovich.

Lady Petrovna
Wife of Vargis, mother of Victor.

Lady Wachter advised that Lady Petrovna is older than Vargis, as she is around 60 or 70, and she seems to have completely lost her mind, as though she has become a shell, a complete follower, and a puppet of her husband.

At the Durst House the party found an unsent letter addressed to Lady Petrovna which was written by Elizabeth Durst. When this letter was shown to Lady Wachter she confirmed it sounded like they were carrying out activities of the Children of the Mother Night.

She has an enchanted mirror in her dressing room which can be used to summon the Ba'al Verzi.

Victor Vallakovich
Son of Vargis and Lady Petrovna.

Victor is a young spellcaster, forced to hide his abilities from his skeptical father, who stated that he beats his son to beat sense into him. He was discovered by Sigismund to be unsuccessfully practicing a teleportation spell in the attic of the Baron's mansion.

Lady Wachter described how Victor had corrupted her daughter Vistella, making her act completely feline. She stated he is an adept spellcaster that needs to be stopped.

During the Festival of the Blazing Sun Victor attempted to assist Izek Strazni in protecting his father from Sigismund. His father got away, however Victor became the focus of Sigismund's frenzied attacks and appeared to be killed in combat.

Vargis and Count Strahd von Zarovich claim that Victor did not actually die, and Strahd suggested it could be to do with Granny taking away Sigismund's victories.
