Ernst Neurath is a high ranking officer in the Red Hessian Army, known for his affiliation with various underground activities on New Berlin before being caught and imprisoned. After his successful escape, he enlisted in Red Hessian Army and is currently operating under direct command of Brigadegeneral Kaspar Meisnerr.
Life
Early life is somewhat shady but various records exist in Rheinland Federal Police archives about criminal acitivity on Planet New Berlin, including planetary smuggling of illegal arms, bribery and extortion of key government figures and numerous acts of document forgery and money counterfeiting. His suspicious political involvement against government was investigated but never proved at this stage.
During his attempt to board and hijack military transport under false identity, Neurath was captured and sent on Daumann penal mining unit in Dresden with cooperation of New Berlin Police. Because of his vast underground connections, his imprisonement on New Berlin was seen as unsafe. Three years spent on most dangerous mining platforms around Leipzig Station was to be invaluable experience of mining mechanics and notorius corporate control. Last known records of penal mining unit Neurath served on shows unknown breaking into security systems and immediate attack on installations by unknown, but presumably Red Hessian bomber squadron. No evidence was found by the government that he was responsible for destruction of this penal mining unit.
Involvement in the Red Hessians
After his escape to Vogtland Base, his experience in obstructing and bypassing corporate and government security systems was recognized by high ranking officers and so he was enlisted into newly formed fighter wing for further training in combat tactics. Neurath embraced Red Hessian ideology and methods of overthrowing 'steel grip' of all-present governmental control. Escaping death on few patrols made him even more determined although it lead to severe physical injuries caused by one of Rheinwehr ambushes. His right fist is now fully prosthetic.
Using his previous experience on smuggling and guerilla tactics, Neurath served on numerous convoy interception missions around Rheinland and Omega systems. Rumour says that he was personally in charge of several transport convoys loaded with illegal Black Market Munitions to be delivered to unknown destinations inside and outside of Rheinland. Using his former connections in the underground was never proven by government but it is suspected.
Current affairs
War has changed him personally. As he abandoned his criminal career, he's using all his previous experience to fully accomplish goals of Volkrevolution in Rheinland and to maintain succesfull economy of force on fronts against Corsairs in Omega-5 and Omega-47 systems. He sees his return to his home planet possible only after uncompromising victory over false ideologies and propaganda of current government lackeys and corporate manipulators.
