I kinda need to know what Karl Franz actualy look like? yes we know his facial features from the model but what does he look like in his normal cloths. primarily i need to know his hair color for a conversion im doing. also i would like to know about his family, does he have a wife, kids, brothers or sisters. so anyone have any clue .

I assume you'd want the top one

yea but the first one has him in armor and a helmet so we still only see his face, also it did not have any info on living relitives which is what i'm looking for. also the second one is about a hapsburg not the emperor. so if no one has any idea im going to guess his hair color is brown which would probably be the most common hair color in the empire. also because whfb is set in a middle ages / renisance style world im going to guess that he has at least one brother, a wife and kids. then again im just making a blind guess baised on the setting. so anyone have any insight on the matter

Karl Franz has no children. This is one of the problems facing the Empire- no heir apparent and an Emperor who goes to battle. I also think it highly unlikely he has a wife, as she would be mentioned as Empress.

Uhh his sons mentioned in the Genevieve books so he's married with children.

He looks like one of the former Austrian Emperors.

nice one wuestenfux. yeri just stick to the theme of the above pic modelling wise and personally i dont you can go far wrong :/

He has a son in the book "beast in velvet" called Leipold i think.

Also dont know if this is much use to you but he has a profile picture in the game Dark Omen.

He is described quite extensively in 'Drachenfels' which I have at home.

If I haven't replied within a couple of days, PM me to remind me to post.

Yeah Leopold is his son, about 10 years old around the time of Drakensfeld.

I quickly read through Drachenfels when I got home last night and even though Karl Franz is the main character for about a fifth of the book I couldn't find anywhere a description of his facial, or even body features.

He does have a wife and 1 son listed in Drachenfels.
