Biography

Guarding the Tesseract

The Church Keeper was appointed to custody an ancient treasure hidden inside the church in Tønsberg. In March 1942, Jan, one of the youngsters of the village, warned the Church Keeper that a group of German soldiers led by Johann Schmidt had arrived looking for the Tesseract, an artifact from the Norse legends he believed to be real. The Church Keeper refused to tell Schmidt the location of the object, but he managed to locate it hidden inside a wall, killing the Church Keeper with his gun moments after finding it. Before his death, the Church Keeper tried to warn Schmidt that no one can touch the Tesseract, as it will burn them alive, although Schmidt ignored this, and referenced his earlier disfiguration via the supersoldier serum for why he was unconcerned.^[1]
