Regent Marshal Bruno Braun
Commander of the Watch
Karl-Franz rarely sits on the council. Tradition has it that when the Grand Prince of Reikland is otherwise engaged, his heir should chair Altdorf council meetings, but Crown Prince Wolfgang never does so. The regent marshal is appointed to represent the Imperial person at council meetings, and the dour Marshal Braun takes this position very seriously indeed.
It may well rankle with nobles that the man, born to humble circumstances, is afforded the authority to permit them to speak or oblige their silence. Marshal Braun has many enemies, but the thought of making more does not faze him. He holds that the cultivation of enemies is an important key to power, believing that such people will work harder to prove themselves to him. Hostility and spite do not cause his lip to tremble.
Marshal Braun is not a political creature. In his leadership of the City Watch he is conscientious and unstinting, but unimaginative. He knows the Watch are corrupt and liable to coerce confessions rather than undertake scrupulous investigations, but he knows the expense of reform would be prohibitive. More ideological watchmen, such as Harald Kleindeinst of the Atrocities Kommission, strike Braun as naïve in their desire to root out corruption from the system. He keeps them on the books nevertheless.
