(A portrait of Claus Chasterell, A. Vilhelm, 1822)

Claus Chasterell (1783-1852) was a poet, playwright, and actor. Born to a working-class household, he found his luck on winter 1803, having Duchess Isabel of Ellster as his patron. (He later became independent with no patronage)

In Ellster, he met a lot of people who ended up being relevant to his life, such as Norabella Oakley, an actress that he married, only for them to divorce on 1818 (although they still had a good relationship, it just wasn't romantic anymore), and Alois Vilhelm, an artist who used to work as Duchess Isabel's guard, who was also his lifelong friend.

He gained popularity from his play, "Snowstorm", a tragedy, and his wonderful acting only adds to his fame. Although it wasn't the only reason..

Claus was also a very handsome man himself. Lots of people would storm the backroom before his play (where he starred) began, or after it ends, just to see him, or get a strand of his hair, if they're lucky. Percival Chasterell, his son, recounts an event similar to what was described in the previous sentences:

"Those people, they were rushing to the backroom to meet my father. I still can hear their footsteps, until this very day. It turned to such a terrible situation that Mr. Vilhelm, who was accompanying me in the theatre, had to come out and calm down the crowd."

There were some speculations about Claus, such as a theory of him being attracted to men. It originated from a play of him, "The Knight and The Elven Bard", that subtly hinted at romance between two men, and the discovery of some letters to a male recipient which seems to match his handwriting only strengthened the theory.

Claus Chasterell passed away in his birth town, Ferncliff, in 21 March 1852.
