Donald Witzenberg was born in 1952 to a peasant family, his father being a farmer and his mother a milkmaid.

Here is began working as a market trader and began dabbling in politics, studying the works of Karl Marx. At 20 he joined the Andrehervian Communist Party and immediately impressed the leadership with his ruthlessness and determination. Three years later, when Witzenberg had acheived the position of leader of the ACP in the Central Gonard region, the ACP was shut down by security forces under the orders of the extreme right-wing Albert Smithson, who had recently seized power.

Fall of Smithson

In 1999, still working as a fisherman, a popular revolt managed to oust Smithson and was replaced by Jim Southern, a more moderate leader who allowed the reformation of parties dissolved under Smithson and removed names blacklisted for member ship to them, including that of Witzenberg's. Because of this, Witzenberg and his family moved north to Hage where he started a job as a technician. In 2001, after hearing of his accomplishments and skills from another ex-APC member, the Communist Shield of the Andrehervian Proletariat contacted him and asked for his membership, telling him of their ambitions and their manifesto.
