Lt. Colonel Robert Fitzgerald is the younger son of the Earl and Countess of Rotherham. He has one older brother, Lord Surrey, and two younger sisters, Ladies Viola and Olivia Fitzgerald. He was brought up at the family seat of Rotherham in Yorkshire.
Robbie is a clever young man with a quick wit and quick tongue. Blessed with physical agility, a good seat on a horse and a firm sense of his place in the world as a younger son, he chose the army for his profession, buying a commission in the cavalry when he left school. His talent for strategy and quick thinking has led to swift promotion to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and Robert sees a bright future in the army provided the dangers of active combat in the Peninsula do not do for him first.
In his personal life, Robert is close to his family, especially to his sister Viola, to whom he is very similar in temperament as well as appearance. He enjoys play acting and the kind of clever conversation he can find with her and almost nobody else. Despite lacking a university education, he is relatively well-read and intellectually sharp with a keen sense of humour and self-parody.
Robbie is a NPC belonging to Rose.
