Summary
Dietrich von Lohengrin, known by the codename Marionettenspieler, which translates to Puppeteer, is a Terran human born in 3042 AD in Germanicus, located in what is now modern Germany. Operating under the fake identity of Dean Butler to pose as Isaak’s brother, he holds the rank of 8=3 Magister within the Order of the Magi. He possesses the unique ability to manipulate the actions and perceptions of victims through wires, allowing him to control both living humans and vampires, and even those who have already died. Additionally, he is a recognized expert in Lost Technology, a rare field within the Trinity Blood universe. Unlike many of his peers, Dietrich views people merely as toys, believing that concepts such as trust, love, friendship, and loyalty do not exist. He acts alone, driven by the conviction that his involvement with the Rosenkreuz Orden serves a greater purpose for the world. He finds intrigue in Esther and Abel due to their stark contrast to his own nature, embodying the idea that a devil can easily disguise himself as the bringer of light.
