Origin[]
Hermann Wilhelm Goring (1893 - 1946) was a German politician, military leader and leading member of the Nazi Party. After helping Adolf Hitler take power in 1933, be became the second-most powerful man in Germany founding the Gestapo. Years later he was made General in Command of the entire Luftwaffe where he earned the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross.
It was during the Battle of Britain that Goring had made a critical decision having some bombers destroy a few parts factory of the British Royal Army. Even some of his own men felt that he had gone too far as it wasn't a major factory, consisting of almost all civilian work forces. Doctor's notes later state that Goring had several recurring nightmares where he was both at command while also in the very factory that was about to be bombed. These nightmares and fears would haunt his dream as long as he wore the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross.
Effects[]
When worn user appears to be two places at once; however, as if there really were two duplicates, it splits the total strength between both.
