Description
Wolfgang Mittermeyer, born 30 August 768 UC to a middle-class family, enlisted in the military to rise through the Galactic Empire’s stratified society. At military school, he encountered Evangelin, an orphaned distant relative, sparking a courtship in 785 UC that culminated in their 792 UC marriage. Persistent infertility struggles led the couple to adopt Felix, the biological son of Mittermeyer’s closest comrade, Oskar von Reuenthal, after the latter’s demise.
Rapid promotions propelled Mittermeyer to admiral rank in his twenties, making him one of the Empire’s youngest. His rigid ethical standards triggered a defining crisis when he executed a nobleman for murdering a civilian woman, drawing assassination threats from aristocratic factions. Reuenthal’s intervention secured protection from Reinhard von Lohengramm, aligning both men with Reinhard’s faction. Dubbed the "Twin Pillars" of Reinhard’s regime, their tactical synergy became legendary.
Nicknamed the "Gale Wolf" for his blistering offensive tactics, Mittermeyer proved instrumental in pivotal conflicts like the Sixth Battle of Iserlohn and repelling Free Planets Alliance invasions. His innovative use of minefields to fragment enemy fleets at Altena exemplified strategic ingenuity. Following Reinhard’s coronation, he ascended to Fleet Admiral and Chief Commander, anchoring the Goldenlöwe Dynasty’s military consolidation.
Mittermeyer’s unwavering loyalty to Reinhard paralleled his profound bond with Reuenthal, forged in the crucible of a 789 UC bar brawl. During Reuenthal’s rebellion, he implored Reinhard for mercy, threatening resignation to avert conflict. Compelled to lead forces against his friend, he carried the emotional burden of their fractured alliance. Honoring Reuenthal’s dying wish, he adopted Felix, shielding the child from political fallout.
Balancing military rigor with domestic devotion, Mittermeyer anchored his life in his marriage to Evangelin, a counterpoint to professional tumult. Despite grief over Reuenthal’s betrayal and death, he upheld steadfast service to Reinhard, stabilizing the Empire until the Kaiser’s passing. His legacy endures as a tactician of peerless speed, a paragon of loyalty, and a testament to friendship’s fragility amidst the machinery of power.
