Notes

Ernst had previously been a member of the Hitler Youth. His position in the Waffen-SS came after he volunteered for the dangerous medical test that gave him his powers - he was one of the few to both survive, and not become either uselessly insane, or hostile to the Third Reich.

This is Ernst before and during the Fall of Berlin. Before he gained his powers, Ernst had HT 12, Courtesy Rank (Hitlerjugend) 3, Overconfidence, and the quirk 'Dislikes open flame.' The latter two have become Megalomania and Pyrophobia. After Germany surrenders, he loses his Duty and Rank, and gains Enemies (Agents of the Allied Powers, Hunter, 9 or less) [-30], Alternate Identity (Illegal) [15], and a new quirk (Rants about the 'Zionist Conspiracy.' [-1]), as he becomes a terrorist and would-be world conqueror. If left alone for long enough, he will accumulate followers like a cult leader, mostly in a cell system.

His Telepathy makes him a serious problem, but he would be far less of a threat if he wasn't so terribly hard to catch - particularly as you shouldn't let him touch your skin. His Avatar is the Nazi flag flapping in the wind to the sound of the Horst-Wessel-Lied.

If you're running a Supers-style game (or perhaps even if you aren't), he's likely to call himself 'der Ubermench,' though he'll probably not be the only successful (or surviving) test subject to choose that name.

The Monsters section of the GURPS Repository has a number of Nazi characters that I based Ernst on, particularly the Hitler Youth Tank Hunter. His powers (apart from the Psychic Healing abilities) are mostly taken from a few templates in GURPS Psis: Telepathy: Eavesdropper, Likable, Mental Guard, and Shadow; ESP: Hyper-Observant (slightly modified); and Probability Alteration: Doom Bringer and Lucky Devil.
