1The 1. Garde zu Fuß Officer exclusively appears on Kaub.
Kaub
Upon ascending Pfalzgrafenstein Castle, players will enter a room with an Officer of the 1. Garde zu Fuß, and Field Marshal Blücher. Blücher is in the late stages of infection and can be seen coughing up blood. As Blücher collapses and succumbs to the infection, the Officer approaches him, only to meet his demise by having his throat ripped out. He dies instantly.
Trivia
The officer is holding tea, as he assumes that Blücher has a cold.
The Teapot the officer uses is called the Utah Teapot, which this particular model didn't exist until the 1970s.
A lot of players have been confused as to how exactly he dies, as the original animation did not include blood effects. This has since been changed.
Originally, Fezezen (@fezezen) didn't want to find a voice actor just to make them record two words, but he asked Tom (@thedamond) to record the lines for the Officer.
Fans tend to unofficially name the officer as "Karl". This originates from Fezezen who jokingly told wiki manager Ein to call him that.
According to Fezezen, this goes back even further to an exploiter who was pleading in his DMs, saying "I even know the name of the Officer in Kaub, Karl". (I already know there's lot or not Karl simp are out THERE, but i think he has a wife but dunno my brain thinks of that. don't use the voice.. i warn you people......
