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.

Others About
- Alexandria Karuna His High Priestess: "We don't always see eye to eye but he's a vital part of our coven."
- Helena van Kruysberghe of the Ordo Dracul of Limburg: "Herr Thielemann. Definately more than meets the eye. If not to be respected, at least he's not to be underestimated. Sorrily misled as he might be, he shows great potential. I fear it is wasted on the Circle, though."
- Marcel Vanerum of the Lancea Sanctum Limburg: "Awel, ich vertrouw Thielemann nie zover as ich hem kan gooien - omda da redelijk ver is - ma ich heb veel respect voor em. Da is tenminste nen echte gangrel." (Translation: "I don't trust Thielemann as far as I can throw him - because I can throw him pretty far - but I respect him. At least he's a real gangrel).
- Dokisha of the Circle of the Crone: "He is very dedicated, he deserves my respect for that...but somehow I think he isn't completely honest with me."
- Takeda Kyuzo of the Invictus: "It's amusing to hear a Westerner talk about honor and discipline. Somehow, however, he manages to sound sincere about it."
- Lord Kolya Petrovich His Lieutenant: "I don't always agree with his ways or his believes, but I'm his right hand and unlike some others I do trust him in where he is taking us. The only question I ask to myself is how we are getting there."
- Gabriël Caluwaert of the Invictus: "When it comes to matters of faith we couldn't be more apart, on ettiquete we follow the same course. One wonders if other circumstances might have directed him to the first estate."
- Bert Stassen, Nosferatu: "A tormented soul. In his tests you can see the esteem he gives you. If he spares you, you're not worthy of his respect. I wish he would stop throwing in random Shakespeare or Nietzsche quotes though, especially when he uses them together."
- Ophelia Schwartz: He's a filthy traitor and he won't avoid his punishment.
