Biography
Despite the von my father has recently been trying to reclaim for our last name, I was born among the working class and raised on Planet Hamburg. I won't ever forget the small and kind of obsolete appartment I used to live in with my parents and my sister. It was located in a poor neighborhood, quickly built to accomodate Republican Shipping employees. Well, accomodate... rather stockpile. We could literally speak with the family next door through the wall.
Not that a lot of fun was to be had outside either, and my parents were quite busy running their modest grocery store. As you may imagine, boredom leads to laziness and laziness leads to stupid actions. I was part of a street gang since I was 14 or 15. Our main activities consisted in picking fights with other groups and "home-brewing" our own drugs. Not that there were many substances besides painkillers and alcohol in them, but apparently young people liked to heat our stuff inside aluminium cups and inhale the vapor. Allegedly made our customers high, but I suspected them to be posers. Until that day when a kid with a pre-existing condition fell into a deep coma for three weeks, which put us in huge trouble. As I was still underage, my parents could have been held responsible by the judge, who however unexpectedly dismissed the case. I wasn't straight away off the hook though, and a policeman came home every day to speak with me and check if I was behaving well.
That was definitely a turning point in my life. From then on, I started studying seriously, got my Abitur and moved to Tegel, New Berlin, right after. There I graduated in engineering, with a specialisation in on-board computer systems. I also took Spanish classes, which helped defusing a bit of tension during my various encounters with Corsairs as a transport captain. After a period as a freelancer, I was hired by Daumann. My comfortable position and salary did not prevent me from being caught in the crossfire many times during the last war, and I still bear scars from those incidents. After a GMG bomber pilot spared me, somehow understanding not all Rheinlanders were too happy with this pointless conflict, I started to wonder if "our" enemies were really the soulless beings we were urged (brainwashed?) to believe.
In the same month, my sister Zita, a police officer, met one of your activists during a patrol. They spoke a lot, and in the end, she let the "wrongdoer" go. A couple of weeks later, she invited me for dinner and showed me the PNR propaganda she subsequently received. Most of it was utterly convincing, especially the part on Planet Nuremberg, that I visited frequently for professional reasons. Progressively shifting from the shallow monarchist convictions of a ruined noble family to the Bundschuh views was some kind of a secret conversion for us. I can't prove it, but I suppose I was being closely watched by some government service from that time on. I finally lost my job for no valid reason. And I remembered that there are better ways to serve our fellow Rheinlanders than blindly obeying a regime and corporations that crush people like us.
Psychological profiling
What do you think makes us special?
Trying to see every issue from the eyes of common people, suggesting realistic solutions through reasonable means. Your clear stance on blind and pointless political violence. Your will to implement an actual democracy in Rheinland, unlike other revolutionary projects that would most probably decay into dictatorship.
How difficult would it be for you to kill a Rheinlander?
I tried never to kill when assaulted as a transport captain, I always ordered my gunners to disable our attackers or entice them into fleeing. Killing is definetely something I wouldn't enjoy doing for sure, but I guess you have no choice in certain situations.
What would you personally change about the Weiße Rose?
I would try to improve its public image among the lower and middle classes by not targeting such people. The movement should also aim to be legalized again, as winning elections is its best option to seize power, but I'm confident you didn't need me to figure it out.
Is there anything else you want to tell us?
Although I used to fly snubcraft during my student years, now my skills are a bit rusty. Should be enough for self-defence. I may feel a bit sick in the beginning. Also, like many people with my social background, I may have a rude behaviour on occasions without intending it.
