Andreas Meyer-Landrut (born 31 May 1929) is an Ostland industrialist, politican and the leader of the liberal reformist movement in the Reichskommissariat. He is popular among the German youth of Ostland, but his popularity is lacking elsewhere. While Meyer-Landrut is a known supporter and like-minded person of Albert Speer in the Greater Germanic Reich, many evidence suggests that he seeks to change the National Socialist structure even further than his idol.
Biography[]
Born into money, Meyer-Landrut is a man with the mind and acumen to succeed in an economic system built to collapse. The representatives of the combined business, industrial, and production might of Germany's crown colony, many say Meyer-Landrut is the true reason for the colony's success.
This might make him loved in the Reich, but everything about him has led to him being one of the Nazi party's most hated men.
Fascinated by Slavistics and Eastern European history since he was a boy, Meyer-Landrut's fascination for the untermensch grew into genuine respect and care during his tours of his factories, where he began to speak firsthand with many of the slaves and servants who worked under him. Overtime his voice on the matter has grown louder, in proportion with his power over Ostland's industries, and now he has loudly begun to advocate for the dawning of a new era in the east. One of peace and understanding, where German and Slav both can be given the gift of democracy and freedom. Inspired by Speer, him and the growing movement of Ostland liberals and student protesters have become possibly the Nazi's greatest threat in Ostland.
Many would accuse him of being an idealist, of being a fool, and of being doomed to the firing line. Meyer-Landrut seems to care little, however, and has so far avoided all accusations of treason. Even when the SS accused him of using his wealth to falsify passports for Jewish families, even when the garrison accused him of using his railines to evacuate Slavs to Romania, even when a Meyer-Landrut cargo plane destined for the Americas was found packed with untermensch children and their mothers. Each time the accusation has slid off of him like water on glass.
Now, Meyer-Landrut says, is the moment where Germans must prove themselves to the world. Will they risk living as monsters, or are they willing die as humans?
