- "Your HYDRA division has failed to deliver so much as a rifle in over a year. And we had learned through local intelligence you had mounted a full-scale incursion into Norway."
- ―Roeder to Johann Schmidt[src]
Roeder was a high ranking officer of the Nazi Schutzstaffel during World War II.
Biography
- "The Führer is not accustomed to being ignored, Herr Schmidt. He funds your research because you promised him weapons."
"You serve at his pleasure. He gave you this facility as a reward for your injuries."
"Reward? Call it what it is. Exile. I no longer reflect his image of Aryan perfection." - ―Roeder, Schneider, and Johann Schmidt[src]
Nothing is known about Roeder's early life, or why and when he joined the Nazis under Adolf Hitler's command. It is known however that he was capable enough to achieve the rank of Oberstgruppenführer (Colonel General) in the Nazi Schutzstaffel.
In 1943, Roeder and his two coleagues were sent by Hitler to Johann Schmidt's base to question him about the progress in developing advanced weapons for the Third Reich. During the tour over the base, Roeder himself said that Schmidt's HYDRA division failed to deliver so much as a single rifle in over a year.
Provoked, Schmidt showed Roeder and his colleagues his Tesseract powered cannon. However, they weren't impressed, thinking that Schmidt was mad for claiming that he harnessed the power of the gods. When Roeder's subordinate officer Hutter saw Berlin marked as one of Schmidt's targets on a map, Schmidt used the cannon to vaporize his three visitors.[1]
