Hitler Rants/Characters

Although starting out as a series of videos of the same scene, with Hitler ranting about whatever topic comes up, it has since evolved into a universe of its own with more scenes from Downfall being used. The character sheet for the original film is here.

---

Adolf Hitler

Adolf Hitler, famous dictator and the titular protagonist of the parodies, usually nicknamed Dolfy. Unlike his serious counterpart, Dolfy is alive and well in his Führerbunker, as the Allies, Soviets and Germans have apparently made a truce so as to keep Hitler and his generals alive, leading what remains of the Third Reich. He was first known to suffer from extreme anger issues, which translated into him ranting at pretty much anything that remotely displeases him. However, as the parody universe expanded, Hitler became involved in many story-lines and convoluted plots. Amidst these chaotic scenarios, one of his servants slowly became his absolute arch-enemy: Fegelein, the Master of Antics, who keeps trolling Hitler in ways that are sometimes not even remotely possible. More generally, Hitler is also portrayed at odds with many of his generals, or people in general.
Here is the list of tropes characterizing most of Hitler's portrayals in the Parodyverse:

• 0% Approval Rating: Generally, no one approves him, his attitude and his orders, although nobody but Jodl confronts him about his decisions. Jodl, the objector, is the only one who almost constantly objects to the Führer's plans, even when Hitler attempts to agree with him! There is also Burgdorf who will sometimes manifest some opposition when Hitler is ranting (which results in the latter lashing out at the former).
• A Chat with Satan: Had one with the ghost of Goebbels who is implied to be the Devil.
• Abusive Parents: Hitler's mother. There is a whole series of parodies showing how dominating she is with her sons.
• Adaptational Badass: The movie's Hitler can barely walk, and his only real ability is his leadership over the Third Reich, which is quickly fading away as the war approaches its end. The parody version, although often suffering from the same debilitating conditions of his serious counterpart, can also, depending on the parodies, run, fight using martial arts, use all sorts of weapons, drive tanks, survive in space, talk in water, sustain heavy damages and blows that would've been fatal to any ordinary human, use magic... The list is far from being exhaustive.
• Adaptational Heroism: The movie's Hitler, mirroring the real-life one, was an evil tyrant that murdered millions and ordered children to be sent fighting Russians in a hopeless attempt of turning the tides of the war; until the very end, although the movie quite humanizes him, Hitler remained devoid of any redeeming quality. The parody version, although bigger in the Jerkass department, generally lack any sort of serious crime sheet (which explains why he hasn't been dethroned yet) and can be pretty much portrayed as an Anti-Hero in some instances (e.g. when he attempted to use the Death Star to destroy Palpatine). This is not to say that Dolfy is far from being a hero; if we account all parodies, he's barely morally ambiguous at best.
• Adaptational Wimp: He's almost always far less intelligent and thoughtful than the movie's version (even though the latter was heavily delusional about his abilities to win the war). In the HRPverse, Dolfy doesn't even know where Berlin is, despite living in it.
• Ambition Is Evil: Most parody versions still retains his plans to turn the tides of the war and then take over the world.
• Animals Hate Him: In Hitler's bathroom disaster, Dolfy is attacked by a feral dog — which is promptly put down — and then a lion! Courtesy of Fegelein.
• Anti-Villain: Dolfy is generally portrayed as a tyrant that does his best to maintain order within the collapsing Third Reich remnants, and while he's still a dictator with a penchant for excessive rants and executions, is not devoid of innate qualities or even compassion.
• Asshole Victim: He's often at the receiving end of nasty pranks. Even though he's much less evil than his movie counterpart, he still remains an abusive tyrant drunk with power, even in the Parodyverse, and so his comeuppance is almost always justified.
• Ax Crazy: He's rather deranged and can go as far as using the Death Star to try and kill Fegelein (spoiler: it failed).
• Bad Boss: His relationships with his underlings are rather sour, with him often insulting and taunting them. This generally backfires, especially if he's talking bad about Fegelein.
• Badass Mustache: Whenever he's fighting someone (if he wins).
• Berserk Button: EVERYTHING! Some examples include: the re-election of Obama or that of Trump, the Wally/Waldo books, the Apple iPad, the Brexit, Jose Mourinho being sacked, Rebecca Black's Friday, an e-mail scam...
• Butt Monkey: Nearly every scheme plotted by anyone, including (or perhaps especially) himself, ends with something bad happening to him.
• Driven to Madness: The war, dealing with his underlings and last but not least Fegelein's antics have taken a huge toll on his sanity. Him ranting to anything is the proof.
• Embarrassing Nickname: Two are recurring: My Failüre (an obvious play of his German title) and Poor Old Man.
• Enemy Mine: He teams up with Fegelein of all people to take down the Inglorious Basterds' Hitler.
• Entitled Bastard: In some parodies, he believes he deserves expansive or very rare things because he's the Führer, period.
• Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Eva.
• Even Evil Has Standards: The point of his rants that double as obvious social commentaries, during which Hitler actually appears as the reasonable one, expressing his distaste of something horrible or totally unjust.
• Evil Feels Good: In some instances Dolfy expresses out loud he enjoys being a dictator or trolling others.
• Evil Laugh: Sorts of. Parts of his speeches have been edited so they resemble a laugh, albeit a very mechanical one (almost as if Dolfy wasn't genuinely human). He usually laughs whenever he successfully pranked someone (especially in the case of Fegelein).
• Flanderization: In the original movie, Hitler was quite angry, but not to the point of ranting at anything and everything as his parodic versions do.
• For the Evulz: He can troll people and commit some cruel deeds purely out of spite. This is best shown in Hitler Becomes a Wizard where Hitler uses a magic wand to transform his generals and terrorize everyone in his vicinity, before Fegelein puts an end to his reign of terror.
• Hates Everyone Equally: He pretty much deems anyone around him to be incompetent idiots, and treat them as such. His secretaries seem to be the only exceptions.
• Hair-Trigger Temper: A giant one, possibly the worst in all of fiction. As seen above Hitler will rage at absolutely everything, even things that would not deserve to be criticized, let alone be the subject of a rant.
• Historical Villain Downgrade: The parody Hitler is just a bumbling, incompetent (or is he?) dictator that lack the seriousness, competence of the true Hitler, as well as the crimes he committed (mostly). Funnily enough, Dolfy believes that the real Hitler is an Allied invention destined to smear him (not that many people hold him in high regards, even within the parodyverse).
• Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: He's so often outsmarted by Fegelein and failed by his underlings (when they are not trolling him to his face), that you eventually sympathize with him, somewhat.
• Jerkass: Usually played straight, with his habits of insulting his servants, ranting at even the least important of things and executing people, sometimes for little to no reasons. Though some parodies downplay it, especially when he's facing actual, serious villains.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: He often tells his servants that they're absolute idiots, which is true in almost all parodies. Also, Hitler also often claims that only he can actually lead the Third Reich (or rather what remains of it), which is true at least in the HRPverse in Fegelein: The Failure. In the video, Hitler fakes his death so Fegelein immediately seizes control over the Third Reich remnants, only to discover that the job is an absolute hell. Fegelein eventually resigns and begs pardon to Hitler when the latter returns. Hitler agrees to take his place back, not before severely beating the Antic Master though. Also, Hitler can have genuine points in some parodies that do serious political and social commentaries, or just react to some stupid trend.
• Jerk Justifications: Type 2. Hitler generally believes he's above others in terms of intelligence, even though nothing could be further from the truth.
• Jerk with a Heart of Gold: In a few parodies, Dolfy will perform some Pet the Dog moments, such as in the video when Hitler buys a goldfish to Krebs...
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk:... though this is usually subverted at the very last moment because it was only a prank from big ol' Dolfy.
• Kick the Dog: Numerous examples across the parodies. For instance, when he organized an expensive dinner while his people were starving, although Fegelein rigged the banquet with microphones and leaked the discussions in the streets, implying that Hitler has faced severe repercussions from this.
• Kick the Son of a Bitch: In some parodies, Downfall's Hitler punishes other villains, generally Fegelein or Hitlers from alternate universes (which he deems as fake and frauds).
• Never My Fault: Dolfy rarely endorses responsibility for his failures, instead preferring to blame them on convenient scapegoats such as his underlings, especially Fegelein.
• Only Sane Man: Zig-zagged. Sometimes, Hitler is portrayed as more intelligent or at least sound than his underlings. In other parodies, the reverse is true and his staff seems much more down to earth compared to their insane boss. Overall, both Hitler and his underlings are pretty much idiots to the point of insanity.
• Politically-Incorrect Villain: Well, we're talking of Hitler after all; however, it's heavily played with. Although played straight in some videos, such as in Hitler Finds Out He's Jewish...and Black where Hitler rants at discovering he's part jew and black, this is generally heavily downplayed and only implied in most parodies, even in those that focus on social/race issues. For instance, Hitler in HRP never criticizes or even mentions Jews and the like. This is also often subverted, as one would expect Dolfy to be violently intolerant, yet he isn't. Some parodies also subverts it twice to show that Hitler is still Hitler.
• Psychopathic Manchild: An exaggerated example for the parodies' needs. He's often portrayed as a childish dictator who throws tamper tantrums and executes people for the slightest deviation.
• Pride: He tends to be extremely proud of his achievements, even when everything is heading downhill. He loves to remind his underlings that he's the most intelligent, talented... well you got it.
• Reality Warper: His pencils have been capable of blowing up buildings and stopping time.
• Selective Obliviousness: In the HRPverse, he desperately search Berlin and cannot comprehend that he is in Berlin, even when Krebs or Inglorious Basterds' Hitler use maps to show him the proof. It is implied he cannot do so because Berlin is written upside down whenever he reads the map, making HRP's Hitler one of the dumbest out of all parodies.
• Schemer: His main occupation aside from ranting (which by the way often occurs after said schemes failed). He generally attempts to destroy his enemies or punish Fegelein for his excessive antics.
• Surrounded by Idiots: Sure, he's a Psychopathic Manchild, but it's hard to argue with a lot of the stupidity that goes on inside the bunker. Also, Dolfy himself is quite the idiot, especially in the HRPverse.
• Ubermensch: He's pretending to be one.
• Ugly Cute: In a parody, we see Hitler as a baby... with his old mug!
• Villain Protagonist: He's arguably the protagonist of the Parodyverse and obviously not a hero, even though his evilness has been toned down a lot from his serious counterpart, to the point that he often functions as an Anti-Villain or even Anti-Hero in some instances.
• Villainous Breakdown: Every time he's losing it, which is once per video at least.
• Would Hurt a Child: In Hitler Kidnaps the Goebbels Children, Hitler is portrayed as a pedophile that gets off abusing children (and it's implied he rapes them). He makes the mistake of kidnapping the Goebbels children, and the other mistake of expressing his fetishes out loud when Mohnke was just at his door, hearing everything. Hitler is then recognized as the culprit behind the disappearance of Goebbels' children, and is dealt with by being cremated.

Hermann Fegelein

Hermann Fegelein, Master of Antics, is generally the main antagonist of the parodies, although some of them portray him as an Anti-Hero opposed to a power-mad Hitler; he's also the secondary antagonist of many mini-series or crossovers.
His main occupation is to troll the Führer, and sometimes the rest of the Führerbunker as well, in every way possible — and that includes breaking the laws of physics in some extreme instances. He became Dolfy's archenemy, who generally devises plans to get rid of him (when he's not ranting), although it always fail, or succeeds momentarily only to fail later, as Fegelein is quite invulnerable and very likely immortal. For these reasons, Fegelein is by far the most powerful character of the parodies, and is very likely to be some sort of cosmic being if not outright the God (or rather Satan) of the Parodyverse. He even created an organization dedicated to commit antics, and works closely with Himmler.
Tropes characterizing Fegelein:

• The Ace: He can perform anything as his abilities to pull off improbable pranks (and escape any retribution) tell.
• Adaptational Badass: His serious counterpart just displays a lot of bravado but is easily disposed of when Hitler wants to, meanwhile the parody version possesses god-like powers and cannot be permanently killed in any way.
• Adaptational Villainy: In Downfall and IRL, Fegelein was only an assistant to Himmler and got shot for desertion upon trying to leave the bunker. In the internet videos, he's more of a Trickster making life in the bunker a living hell. The real life Fegelein did commit serious war crimes though.
• Anti-Villain: Considering he's trolling and fighting back the Nazis and especially Hitler, this makes him more of an Designated Villain than anything else. In some parodies, he's even The Hero. However, the Nazis here are not portrayed as being as evil as they were IRL, so his pranks can feel unjustified, and some of them go much further than they should, showing that he truly can be villainous.
• Ax Crazy: Rather downplayed compared to Dolfy, but some of his pranks clearly show he's an insane sadist who loves tormenting others.
• Badass: He isn't afraid of anything and often openly taunts the Führer to his face despite threats of executions, knowing nothing can be done to him.
  • Badass Decay: Sometimes Fegelein is portrayed not as strong or genre savvy he usually is. There's also a trend of no longer involving Fegelein in the parodies' plots, or just using him as a side character/running joke when Hitler rants about something.
• Break the Haughty: There is one parody in which Fegelein seizes power after Hitler seemingly passed away. In the beginning, he absolutely loves to lead the Third Reich, but slowly realizes that the job is an absolute hell: he's forced to wake up at 4 am every day, is annoyed by the useless generals and constantly objected by Jodl which greatly angers him, and is mocked by Burgdorf who deems him worse than his predecessor. And when Dolfy returns, telling Fegelein that it was all part of the plan, the latter begs for mercy and immediately gives up his place.
• Cold-Blooded Torture: Some of his nastiest pranks are particularly painful. Also see Herr Doktor below.
• Draco in Leather Pants: Quickly became this with his awesome personality and stunts.
• Enemy Mine: He teams up with Hitler to take down the Inglorious Basterds' Hitler.
• Ensemble Darkhorse: Despite being arguably the primary antagonist of the whole mythos, often steals the spotlight to Hitler himself due to his giant charisma, attractiveness, refusal to follow Hitler's orders (both in-film and parodies) and of course his antics.
  • And he became this only because Hitler rants at him during a single scene of a minute no less!
• Even Evil Has Standards: He hates it when Hitler talks bad of his mother. The latter hears it and comes to whoop Dolfy's ass.
• Evil Feels Good: Bringing misery to people, especially Hitler, brightens his day.
• Evil Is Cool: He's a rather chill and cool character who pulls incredible pranks to troll everyone in his vicinity.
• For the Evulz: Why he commits most of his pranks. Also to mess with Dolfy's already questionable sanity.
• Herr Doktor: In Hitler plans a facial plastic surgery, he passes off as a plastic surgeon when Hitler wanted a face-lifting. Of course, Hitler falls in the trap, and then Fegelein reveals himself, mutilating Hitler's face as well as taking out his remaining ball in an hilariously yet horrific Gory Discretion Shot.
• Historical Villain Downgrade/Upgrade: It's really Depending on the Writer on this one. He's generally less evil than his real-life counterpart, fighting not alongside but against Hitler and the Nazis, and also lack the serious crimes he committed while in Belarus. On the other side, some of his antics have endangered the whole Earth, making him a genuine threat for mankind.
• Karma Houdini: He's almost never punished for his deeds.
• Kick the Dog: Sometimes, he'll go very far with his pranks.
• Kick the Son of a Bitch: He loves to troll Hitler and his generals, who aren't exactly the best of people to put it mildly.
• Jerkass: He has quite a nasty personality, constantly torturing the Führerbunker with his various antics, and never apologizing for it.
  • Jerkass With a Heart of Gold: Despite this, he still cares for his sister. This doesn't prevent her from being victim of an antic if it was aimed at the whole Führerbunker.
• Magnificent Bastard: Fegelein, the Master of Antics, who often masterminds incredible plots just to troll the Führer.
• Nigh Invulnerability: In general. The few times Fegelein has been caught and even killed, he comes back like nothing ever happened. It's been taken to its extreme a few times. Hitler did once try to have Göring eat Fegelein, but it failed.
• Only Sane Man: He's by far the sanest character of the parodies, although some of the pranks he commits still show his Ax Crazyness.
• The Prankster: He really loves to prank and taunt Dolfy.
• Reality Warper: He can rewrite the very laws of reality in order to pull off antics that would be strictly impossible to do otherwise. For instance, he gave everyone in Germany (and possibly the world) a Vocoder voice, and in another series of parodies had everyone's faces but his deformed so they look nightmarishly ugly.
• Say My Name: Hitler often shouts “FEGELEIN! FEGELEIN! FEGELEIN!” whenever Gunsche informs him of something bad, even when it has nothing to do with him (Hitler still finds a way to blame Fegelein for his misfortunes).
• The Stoic: He's generally very cold-blooded and rarely gets angry.
  • Not So Stoic: But in some occasions, he does get angry, in which case he quickly puts everyone in place (except Hitler, whose ranting skills are still greater).
• Trickster: His antics range from Sitcom Arch Nemesis levels to outright malevolence.
• Troll: He's THE troll of the Parodyverse.
• Villainous Breakdown: In Fegelein: The Failüre, he eventually loses it when he hears the generals mocking him a few rooms away.

Wilhelm Burgdorf

He makes an appearance in the OBS and is the only general who voices his outrage when Hitler insults the German military. In the parodies, he's known for being prone to drink, and not water at that. He also loves to call Hitler a “poor old man”, which greatly irritates the dictator. He's also known to possess a pistol which he uses in a scene when he attempts to gun down a traitor. Needless to say, the last scene has been used countless times in parodies.
Tropes characterizing Burgdorf:

• The Alcoholic: Drinks lots of booze, which can result in him suffering drunk outbursts. In one of them, he even confused Fegelein with Hitler, and attempted to shoot the later, thinking it was the Antic Master.
• Anti-Villain: In the HRPverse, one of his goals is to kill or at least get rid of Fegelein to restore a semblance of peace within the bunker.
• Commander Contrarian: While nowhere near the level of Jodl, he often objected to Hitler's rants during the early videos and sometimes still does if the original Bunker scene is used.
• Dreadful Musician: He really enjoys singing. At one point, he was charged to produce musical propaganda for the Third Reich youth, but it ended up with Hitler ranting about the atrocious song.
• Embarrassing Nickname: He's often called “Boozing Fool” by Hitler in the HRPverse.
• Even Evil Has Standards: He's sick of Fegelein's antics, and plotted to kill him more than once.
• Flanderization: His drinking habits are Up to Eleven in the parodies, to the point of endangering people with his drunkness.
• For the Evulz: There is a series of parodies where he shoots people and destroys buildings with his gun for no apparent reason.
• Kick the Dog: In one parody, he harasses Hitler by repeatedly calling him a “poor old man”, to the point of Hitler deeming him more annoying than Fegelein.
• Trigger Happy: He doesn't hesitate to shoot his gun at people who annoys or merely displeases him. However, he normally wouldn't even dare to raise his gun against Hitler, but he did try to shoot the Führer once, confusing him with Fegelein while drunk.

Joseph Goebbels (AKA Dr. Skeletor)

The Third Reich's Minister of Propaganda, and right-hand of the Führer. He's often there whenever Hitler plans or rants, and also has a scene where he rants (though much less long and famous than the OBS' rant). He often scares the people around him with his creepily emaciated face, which earned him the moniker of Skeletor. Tropes characterizing Goebbels:

• Butt Monkey: Much like his superior, though not as often.
• Embarrassing Nickname: Skeletor.
• Flanderization: His devotion to Hitler, though hardly downplayed compared to the original adaptation since Goebbels was as delusional as the Führer.
• Hair-Trigger Temper: Just like the Führer, he can rant up a storm. Downplayed though, as Goebbels tend to remain collected especially when compared to Dolfy.
• Jerkass Woobie:Goebbels is often belittled and mocked over his appearance by Dolfy no less (despite being his Yes-Man), and cruelly nicknamed Skeletor, which results in him ranting, although none of his fellow generals take him seriously. This can be a little hard to take, especially to anyone victim of bullying in the past.
• Kubrick Stare : His stare can be... unsettling. Exploited in this parody in which Goebbels trolls the Führer simply by staring him.
• My Name Is Not Durwood: He really HATES being called Dr. Skeletor. When the generals do this, he will rant, but if it is Hitler, he will simply go away.
• Professional Butt-Kisser: To Hitler. See below.
• Yes-Man: He's by far the most devoted to the Führer and the Nazi doctrine, which reflects his actual, historical personality. He almost never contests Hitler's decisions, as absurd as they seem, even despite Hitler often mocking and belittling him, and is pretty much the only underling who never hesitates to take the Führer's defense. Of course, this is subverted in a few parodies, but they tend to be very rare.

Hermann Göring

A high-ranked general, Göring makes only little appearances in the original movie. In the parodies, he's often portrayed as an enormously fat Big Eater that does nothing but eat, much to Hitler's dismay. Tropes characterizing Göring:

• Big Eater: He can eat superhuman amounts of food. Up to Eleven in some parodies such as in the series Hitler sends Göring to Africa in which Göring consumes all of the Africa and threatens to do so with the rest of the world before Dolfy stops him.
• Extreme Omnivore: He usually eats junk food in large excesses, but can eat more... exotic food. In some parodies, he also consumes human food.
• Fat Bastard: He's the fattest character of the bunker, and makes no attempt whatsoever to lose weight. In Hitler plans to get Göring in shape, Bormann details at which point Göring is in a bad state:

Mein Failüre, Goering weights in at: 3,672 lbs or 1,669 kgs. He can't walk and has to be bestowed by a tank. His cholesterol level rivals a blue whale. His average movement speed is 0.01 mph. He's not likely to live another 3 years and has a 3 in 4 chance of a heart attack.

• Historical Villain Downgrade/Upgrade: While his real version was almost as corrupt as Hitler, this version tends to be portrayed as a relatively harmless big eater that does nothing interesting. However, he threatens the world in some parodies with his excessive diets, to say the least.
• Kick the Son of a Bitch: In Hitler gets wasted for his Birthday, he beats up Hitler for having an intercourse with his very fat wife.
• The Quiet One: Downplayed as a whole. In the first generation of parodies, he never uttered a word since he doesn't speak in the original movie. This changed when an interview of Mathias Gnädinger, who portrayed the fat Nazi in the movie, was brought up. Although relatively short, the interview is clear enough to be used in parodies, and so Göring began to talk. In addition, Gnädinger was dressed in character while doing so, so both the actor and his speech are used. Still, Göring tends to be relatively quiet when compared to Hitler, the other generals or even Günsche.

Otto Günsche

Günsche was, in real life, a member of Hitler's personal guard, and served as one of his informants. In the parodies, he keeps his role of informant, although Günsche will often informs him of completely trivial things. Tropes characterizing Günsche:

• Affably Evil: He remains very polite even when he plots against Hitler.
• Captain Obvious: Günsche often informs Hitler of obvious things, such as that he is Hitler, among other facts.
• The Ditz: He is not very bright.
• Kick the Dog: In Hitler plans a facial plastic surgery, Günsche does nothing when he sees Hitler getting severely mutilated off-screen by Fegelein.
• The Stoic: He tends to remain completely stoic regardless of the craziness happening around him. Of course, some parodies subverts it, such as in Hitler gets wasted for his Birthday when he loses it after Hitler insults him, and beats the latter to a pulp.

Heinrich Himmler

A high-ranked general that was Hitler's second. He only appears in a handful of scenes in the movie, before Hitler learns of his betrayal during the dinner scene. Thus, parody makers began to associate him closely with Fegelein. Tropes characterizing Himmler:

• Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: He often promises something to Hitler when they shake hands, before betraying him or sometimes outright doing the opposite just to spite Dolfy.
• Faux Affably Evil: He sounds nice and all when talking to Hitler, but is almost never sincere. This makes him one of the least affable parody character; he's arguably even less affable than Fegelein, who is at least honest with his intentions safe in a few antics.
• Professional Butt-Kisser: To Hitler, but it's only an act (unlike with Goebbels).
• Trickster: He's also involved with Fegelein's antics.

Alfred Jodl

A high-ranked general that appears in the OBS, announcing the bad news to Hitler. He's well-known for always objecting Hitler in the parodies, often leading to heated arguments between the two. Tropes characterizing Jodl:

• Affably Evil: Despite acting as a Jerkass, he's quite affable, especially when conversing with others characters.
• Anti-Villain: He's hardly evil — in fact, the only thing that makes him a villain is his Nazi general status, at least in the parodies — and often objects Hitler's plans which tends to be completely insane.
• Bald of Evil: He's a bald Nazi. Hitler tends to belittle him a lot with his lack of hairs. In spite of the scorn, he seems to be rather proud of his baldness.
• Commander Contrarian: His only purpose is to object to whatever comes out of Hitler's mouth. Of course, the one plan he agreed to was the plan Hitler actually wanted him to object to. This also extends to others characters as well in many parodies, so no wonder why Jodl is almost universally disliked.
• Deadpan Snarker: Says some sarcastic things, though not as much as Fegelein.
• Flanderization: In the original movie, he merely objected to Hitler's delusional plans, but still went on with them. In the parodies, Jodl will object to anything he plans and very often will disobey the Führer.
• Historical Villain Downgrade: Much like Dolfy, the parody Jodl tends to lack the serious crimes he ordered in Russia (namely, the extermination of thousands of Jews and Soviet officials).
• Jerkass: He's rather rude and will often interrupt Hitler as soon as he objects.

Hans Krebs

Another general that appears in the OBS. A rather minor character, he's known in the parodies for his obsession with maps and fishes, the latter taken too far in some instances. In the HRPverse, he often attempts to explain Hitler that he is in Berlin. Tropes characterizing Krebs:

• Affably Evil: Much like his original counterpart, the parody Krebs tends to remain relatively civil.
• Anti-Villain: Again, he's not really a villain, if we doesn't account that he works for the Nazis — even then, the parodic Hitler is generally much less vile than his serious/real counterparts.
• Berserk Button: Destroying his maps or murdering his fishes are sure ways to have Krebs after your ass.
• But You Screw One Goat!: In one parody, he and Burgdorf went on a vacation. They caught a rather large fish and force it to give Krebs a blowjob, something that was then broadcast to the TV news somehow (maybe thanks to Fegelein?). Yup, you can guess Hitler's reaction.
• Companion Cube: Loves pointing at maps.
• Mr. Exposition: Usually the one to explain the situation at hand.
