Application

Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer. 03c88b10

Name: Gerhard Beilschmidt.

Representative of: Die Neue Reichskanzlei (The New Reich Chancellery).

Gender: Male.

Age (human and historical) : Date of birth : 1933. Grown-up aspect : 1939. As a human I look 28.

Brief personality: I like to inspire fear ; in fact, it is the very reason of my existence, everything in me was created for that purpose and I am all very well with that idea. I am the result of the Aryan ideology, and the desire to impose, to take. Most of the time, I like new, daring and modern ideas, especially in war, and I admire strenght and the respect of our origins. I consider jews as an under-race *A Student in Contemporary History coughs* What ? This is a very measured term. *"Ja, suuuure."* *Gerhard pauses a moment, narrowing his eyes at the young man, whose hands start to tremble a little. Then he turns back to his audience.* I also believe the Slavs to be our slaves by birth. By the way you can notice how both terms are extremely close, which is only another proof that my believe in this is right. *"Yes, that's perfectly logical." Deep sarcasm* It is.
I am a diplomat, therefore I know how to talk to people, especially in political matters. However I don't bother talking with everyone, and I must say my time in prison made me rather taciturn.
*"How about your lovelife, uh ?"* I don't know what you're talking about. Love... It is immaterial, has no significance to me right now. *"Aw, you didn't even find yourself a young man to pass the time when you were in prison ?"* *Gerhard turns to him and widens his eyes in horrified disgust* I beg your fucking pardon ?! *"Oh, well."* Homosexuals are foul and do not belong to the Volksgemeinschaft, not even to the human race ! *"Mh. I always found that Cult of Personnality you vowed to Hitler was very close to lo-"* *Suddenly reaches and puts a pistol under the student's chin* Don't you dare say anything of that sort !

Brief physical description: I am very tall, and though I'm not broad, I am rather imposing. Maybe it is because of my constantly grave expression, maybe it is just because what I inspire makes people quake and sweat. Or at least it used to. I always wear my SS black suit, as well as a long black coat. I am pale, and my hair is, I'm afraid, black. It is long and straight. My eyes are blue.

SS Suit:

I also am very beautiful. Actually, Albert Speer made me in the hope that I would become even more beautiful as I would get old. Obviously now that my monument is destroyed, my human appearance is locked, frozen, and my monument shall never grow old with that greatness Speer wanted, like the Roman ruins. He knew the Führer desired something that would make posterity stand in awe. He built me with special materials, that would eventually give me something of a Romantic aspect. He drew pictures of a collapsed wall, of truncated columns covered in wisteria, indicating a curious nostalgy in the centre of power, or at least the desire to create it in the future generations.

Brief history: I grew up very fast, but my place was destroyed as rapidely. My Master the Führer didn't think the old Chancellery worthy of the German Reich, and asked Albert Speer to build a new one as fast as possible, and make it imposing "for the foreign potentates, especially the little ones". The cost didn't matter. My Master wanted it fast *"Because he was secretly worried for his health"* *Gerhard turns to him* You are not to reveal any private matter of the Führer. *"Your Master is dead. The Reich is long gone."* *Gerhard looks at him threateningly* I am still here.
*turning back to his audience* Speer promised the respect the deadlines, though he later admited it has been the most taken lightly decision in his whole career, and he confessed he even started the constructions of the parts of the monument he hadn't finished the needed calculations for. But as he managed it, my Conceiver was seen a master of organisation, and honoured very greatly during the inauguration. 4 000 workers were hired, split in a day team and a night one, and thousands of craftmen and other workers participated in the construction : all were invited at the inauguration. I remember looking upon them all. Then meeting lots of them. Good, german, hard-worker people that participated in my creation.
It was something...
I was supposed to represent the renew and the strenght of the 3rd Reich, although my Master rather saw me as the provisional residence of the Head of State. *"He intended to build another New Chancellery, did he not ?"* *Looking away, expression unreadable* He did. He also wanted a palace of the Führer, which he would have built during Berlin's reconstruction.
The project was based on the long path one had to walk to arrive in the Führer's office. It had to impress by it's lenght, the changings of its materials, and the composition of its colours. My Master wanted the polished marble floor to stay uncovered by carpets : "It is very well this way, diplomats must know how to move on a slippery ground".

A guarded door. You can here see the marbled floor:

A Gallery:

His working cabinet and office particularly pleased my Master. It is there that several days after the inauguration, the Head of State of the Czechoslovakian State was imposed the occupation of his country. I remember the admiration and the fear I saw in his eyes when he entered the room, a fear already built by the long pathway he had had to cross before finding himself in front of the great Führer.

The Führer's Office:

Underground, there was the Führerbunker. *A pause* *"In which he-"* We all know what he did there. *Gerhard glares at him*
After the war, my monument was demolished.
I was judged during Nuremberg trials and condamned to prison. I got out only several years ago and decided to go to the Nations Mansion, though the country is hostile and its ideology disgusts me, but I had nothing left.

Religious affiliation: Catholicism. The Führer was officially recognized by the Church the day the Concorda was signed.

Any special powers or abilities: I inherited the organisation skills of my Conceiver, and the good improvisation capacity of my Master.

I'm accepting your application, just try not to be too offensive with this character, please. WWII was a long time ago, but some people can still be offended when talking about Aryan ideals and 'slaves by birth.' I'm just saying be careful. Thank you!

Oh aye don't worry about that, is was in my intentions. Of course I can't alter the char's ideology and behavior, but I won't lead it to excesses either : the whole purpose is to study it with a historical point of view, I'm not gonna make it a joke or anything. And what he'll say or do won't be to be believed or even seen as my own beliefs. As I said, it's a study.

Also, the Reichskanzlei is destroyed, so I think it'd be better appropriate to put him in Former Empires (even though he's not an Empire, but he's former... and a place made for an Empire^^)

All right. Thank you once again. ^^
