Profile

Once Luftwaffe commander, Göring survived Hitler’s death and reinvented himself as the Reich’s industrial baron. He controls the veins of the empire: the Ural mines, Caucasus oil, and the vast syndicates of steel, coal, and armaments. Every rocket and automaton begins with his networks.

Appearance

• Corpulent, decadent, baroque.

• Fur-lined uniforms, pastel tunics, jeweled rings, and gold-topped cane concealing a blade.

• Prefers to appear as a Renaissance baron among soldiers.

Persona

• Charismatic and flamboyant, loved by citizens as a symbol of prosperity.

• Corrupt and indulgent, despised by rivals but tolerated for his indispensability.

• Plays the “provider” of the Reich: factories, airships, parades of abundance.

Evolution after the Coup

• 1944: Consolidated resources after Hitler’s assassination.

• 1950s: Rules industry as a cartel lord; his corruption sustains him as much as his wealth.

• Remains Speer’s ally, but rivalry with Himmler simmers beneath the surface.

Velvet Assessment

“The Reich’s golden parasite. Cut him, and the arteries of industry will bleed.”
