[hider=Leutnant Wernher August von Lockstedt] [b][center]Leutnant Ritter Wernher August von Lockstedt Born in Berlin, Brandenburg, Königreich Preuβen. 29. November 1879.[/center][/b] Wernher August Ritter von Lockstedt was born into a family of lower aristocracy in Berlin. von Lockstedts own a manor and a patch of land outside of Berlin, but throughout history their family has served in European militaries in lower and upper officer corps, especially during and after the Enlightenment. Currently Wernher is serving as a Leutnant in the Prussian military and currently is working as an instructor and platoon leader, soon to be given the command of a company. He plans to apply for the Staff College in few years. In his childhood, Wernher learned how to ride a horse and how to draw. He's also trying to play a piano. Along with his native German, he can speak French almost fluently and is learning English. Lutheran by religion, Wernher prays sometimes, but isn't highly devout individual, although Lutheranism has had an influence on his work ethic. Personality-wise, Wernher seems to be diplomatic, optimistic and humorous in his responses. While Wernher enjoys good wine and beer on occasion, he is quite a lightweight drinker. While in the service, he tends to have close working relationships with his squad leaders, often trusting their initiative in day to day training and tasks, but he is not hesitant to lead by example. He tends to also do what he preaches: if he doesn't show example to his men, why should they march in a muddy field with rifles and full packs? Wernher has always excelled in sports and languages, and he might have become a translator, if his father Oskar hadn’t pestered him to serve in the military as a career officer. Wernher’s platoon is often among the best in a company when it comes to running, swimming, football and other sports. Wernher reads a lot, especially foreign books. He has translated a few as a hobby for his friends and family. His father still serves as a major in the artillery, but Wernher didn’t follow his father’s footsteps into “the gods of war”, as his father insisted, but has been serving in the infantry. Wernher has taken a short vacation to visit his old friend at Schloβ Komturhof. [center][img]https://i.pinimg.com/originals/22/c3/6d/22c36d583284f8ea7166a83acdc6c4eb.jpg[/img][/center] [/hider]
