Former Pontifex falls in battle against Italy.

Former Pontifex "Pope_Tassilo_I" has fallen in battle against Italy.

During his reign he managed to sign a NAP with Italy but it seemed short lived after he abdicated.

Pope Tassilo I, also known as @69b9d87975d28d85e725c8c2, died at the frontlines after refusing to abandon his post.

The monk and his monastic order stood defiant until the end. Not one of them abandoned their duty. @69b9d87975d28d85e725c8c2fired at enemy positions with his holy tank "Mors Haeresis" until mechanical failure. Repeated hits from italian AT-Rifles slowly stripped away its holy armor until only a smoking husk remained.

Emerging from the tanks wreckage @69b9d87975d28d85e725c8c2 used his battle rifle "Spiritus Spei" and every last bit of ammunition to fend off wave after wave of Italians.

However, in the end, the Italians broke through. The monk lies dead in front of the ruins of the St. Peters Basilica alongside his brothers. Not one retreated. A martyr's death.

Their deaths were not in vain. Just like the Swiss Guard in 1527 managed to allow Clement VII to escape the carnage the current @697b1c3375e83770b288d1dbsuccessfully slipped away, allowing the Vatican to start resisting italian occupation.

The remains of Brother_Karcel are to be transported to the Bavarian countryside where he was originally from. The grave shall be humble with a wooden cross.

Brother_Karcels brother "Marbod" has decided to name his new beer variety after him, the "Karceller Helles".
