# HERMAN: Summary
Herman is an OC made in the Guts & Blackpowder universe. For a brief summary, at a surface level, it is the outbreak of the undead, or zombies, during the Napoleonic Wars. This is called The Blight.

**Herman** is the last standing survivor of the *Brunswick Leib-Battalion*'s detachment sent to *Birmingham*. Of these men sent were Cavalry, Jägers, **Herman** and *his detachment*, and the 44th regiment of foot. **Herman** is there to mediate between the 44th and the Jägers, and to provide specialist help. Some of the men in **Herman**'s detachment were his best friends, and all dyed the [**Braunschweiger Totenkopfs**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totenkopf#Brunswick) on their shakos red to remember eachother by, since they were getting new headgear. All of the men sent there died horrifically, except for **Herman**. **Herman**'s friends were victim, and as they turned, **Herman**'s closest friend managed to claw at his face, and gave **Herman** a gnarly scar across his left eye. Something about that scar felt off.
**Herman** survived, and was extracted by the Warwickshire militia, mistaking him burning the bodies as a distress smoke signal. **Herman** had not burned his friends, rather burying them instead of giving them the same fate the other cannibals who attacked met. Now, he is the only one left with the red skull. Instead of returning to high command, **Herman** instead chose to vow to crush the blight or die trying, promising such to his friends. He dug up his grandfather's blunderbuss at his families estate, and HEADED **BACK** to *Birmingham* to cull the city or die trying.
## Appearance
**Herman** has the Brunswick Leib-Battalion uniform, with a dyed red [**Braunschweiger Totenkopf**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totenkopf#Brunswick) on his shako instead of the normal silver. His sash is off, and he has a normal brunswicker belt. He wears a golden cross necklace on his neck. His eye(s) are tired and exhausted, with one closed with the scar on it. It opens in the Old Blood state, glowing fiery red. He has the blue B.L.J canteen on the back of his belt, and a black backpack that is larger than standard issue, and also has a bedroll. There a silver emblem of a horse on the back. He has a more practical sheath for his Officer's Sabre, and a pistol. He may also be seen with his Grandfather's blunderbuss. Lastly, he has a stubble.
## Extra
