Gunther was the son of an architect in Mains, as a young boy his Gift and prodigious intellect garnered the attention of Nicoforus, who risked the Tribunal’s ire by venturing into the Rhine Valley to get an apprentice. Gunther had learned some of his father’s trade as well as that of local craftsman due to his boundless energy and application, though unfocused. When Nicoforus took him to his Covenant, he excelled, but his pride was sorely tested by the attitudes that many magi or the apprentices showed him and his master. While his master was certainly a gifted member of Verditius, Gunther often saw and heard slights directed their way. He fought back with magical traps that earned his nickname of Fabrica Diabolica. When an Archmagus of House Tytalus visited the covenant, he was finally able to focus his studies and intellect. Their deference towards him and the stories he told entranced him. Initially his parens was happy that he was taking his studies more seriously, but when he found out his goal he became worried. The last thing a prideful House member needed was to strive for such a vaunted position. He tried to reign in some of his ambitions to keep him well grounded, but that only drove him further into his goal. Upon his gauntlet he re-dedicated himself to this goal, feeling he finally escaped the one holding him back. He does not resent Nicoforus, but feels that his ambitions are far too modest. Unbeknownst to Fabrica, Nicoforus feels much the way that Primus Stouritus does; humility must be cultivated into the House or else they could lead to ruin.
