Gerhard von Stantten

Gerhard von Stantten was a Hessian soldier during the American Revolutionary War, in the employ of the British Army, and a devout member of the Templar Order.

Gerhard stood out in his appetite for war, and with virtually no personality to speak of, he was an unstoppable killing machine that would carry out his orders without ever considering defeat.

In 2012, his genetic memories were used as an Animi Avatar by the entertainment branch of the Templar company Abstergo Industries, to influence the general public via the Animus games console, under the title of the Hessian.
