Amon Goeth

Biography
Amon Leopold Goth (1908 - 1945 inc.) was an Austrian captain and the commandant of the Krakow-Plaszow (KP) concentration camp in Plaszow in German-occupied Poland. The KP camp was known to be one of the worse camps in all of World War II. After his capture he was placed on trial for homicide, the first conviction for war crimes, for personally overseeing the killing, maiming and torturing of a substantial, albeit unidentified number of people. Goth personally oversaw everything that had to do with his camp from building it, killing or enslaving all that lived in the land that was taken for the camp to sending people to torture or even shooting dozens of people himself. Goth personally murdered prisoners, twenty five thousand were imprisoned in the KP camp, on a daily basis. His two dogs, Rolf and Ralf, were trained to tear inmates to death. Watching from his office he would shoot people working in the yard if he thought they were moving too slowly or resting in the yard. Witness testimony stated that he shot a Jewish cook for serving soup that was too hot. Goth believed if a single member of a work team escaped or committed the slightest of infractions then the entire team would need to be punished. In the report after the war ended stated that around eight thousand to twelve thousand people were murdered at KP. He was dismissed for stealing from the Jewish prisoners due to Nazi Germany policy that everything was theirs and he was stealing from the state.

Later Goth started to go on about how several snuff boxes he had in his collection were magical and how he was able to commit mass murder. His commanding officers didn't believe him and SS doctors diagnosed Goth as suffering from mental illness and was committed to a mental institution in Bad Tolz, he was arrested by the United States military and turned over to Warehouse 13 agents along with his entire collection of snuff boxes. Out of the twenty in his possession, three were artifacts.

It was later discovered that during his time at the camp he discovered the artifacts among his snuff boxes and wanted to study the powers within. Taking people at random he watched a guard in hazmat outfits open the boxes then watch what happened. In order to keep his new toys a secret he would also shoot the guards to make sure no one else knew.
