Brief history - No real facts about Gerhardt's past are known. It is common knowledge that he has been a doctor at the University of Munich, and a specialist when it comes to religious history, and ancient german languages. However, what he did with that knowledge during the second World War is a source of debate amongst those interested enough to care. What is known within the Circle tho, is that within the last 50 years, he managed to help several covens in becoming more united. Every time he claims to be sent by the Black Forest in Germany, and imposing a military like discipline wherever it was needed. Despite his own fanatical devotions to Lilith, he's willing to set this aside to aid a coven in finding a believe that suits them best. It is this quality which makes sure his former covens remember him with respect and care, even tho he left them every time he concidered them ready to stand alone. Noone really knows how long it will take Gerhardt to leave his current coven, especially as they seem to have softened his hard side just a bit.
