Peter Alstrenner

Peter Alstrenner was a Yale diplomat and professor of social sciences who went on to become a prominent politician in the early Griffonian Republic and leader of the Griffonian National Revolutionary Front during the Griffonian Revolutionary War. He was one of the major far-right scholars during the Springtime of Nations, and his works have been read by millions of Griffons

Peter Alstrenner was born in Yale during a time of relative peace and prosperity in the Griffonian Empire - however, he became skeptical of the nobility of the Empire after numerous reforms made by Grover IV were sidelined and the nobility "continued to act in their own degenerate values and for the expansion of their own economic and social interests". During this time, Alstrenner published his first newspaper work in "der Skeptiker", titled "The Nobility Problem". Alstrenner's vicious mockery of parts of society every Griffon hated and his intellectual tones and speech quickly attracted readers from all across Yale.

In 967 ALB, at the age of 32, Alstrenner became a professor of Social Sciences at one of the most conservative institutions in the country, the University of Bruma. In his classes, Alstrenner advocated for the destruction of the modern Griffonian nobility and Herzlander cultural supremacy against the "Discret lackeys who have sat in our grand parliament since the days of Grover II" and the "vicious dogs who now occupy our great and holy Bronzehill".

In the Griffonian Revolutionary War, Alstrenner sided with the rebels, and his Griffonian National Revolutionary Front against Imperial forces in Yale, and quickly ventured to Griffenheim to join the fight. His far-right views found many friends and loyal allies, but also much distrust and dislike from the NRP hardliners. However, they did influence many young griffons such as Reinhard Suntail, along with griffon settlers living in heavy diamond dog areas in Bronzehill.

In the 978 election, Alstrenner recieved only 11.6% of the vote, and quickly became disillusioned with what he perceived as the Republic acting the same way as the nobility he had fought so hard to unseat. He did not participate in the Long March, abandoning Kemerskai, and returned to Bruma in neutral Yale. However, Yale was not as neutral to Yale, and with their declaration of fealty to the Empire, Alstrenner was executed and killed in Griffenheim for treason.
