Uncle Heinrich
Otto’s uncle who disappeared from the ancestral castle in the German village of Drecksau over 40 years ago. Recently resurfaced and now once again the proud inhabitant of the aforementioned castle.
In a family of mad scientists, Heinrich is no exception, and since he lives in an old castle, he might fit the stereotype even more than Otto. Naturally, living near a quaint little village doesn’t come without risks, and after some of the experiments involving the local villagers failed miserably they quickly started forming angry mobs to drive the scientist out of their town.
Heinrich always dreamed of what the future would be like. When he managed to invent a time machine in the late 60’s, he didn’t hesitate – he would travel 40 years into the future, because surely, after the year 2000 the world should be a technological utopia with flying cars, infinite energy and 3D television.
Sadly, Heinrich’s hopes were soon crushed when he arrived in 2008 and found out that the world was still in bad shape; only the TV’s were a little thinner than he remembered. After realizing that in the 40 years that he skipped, he could have invented all the things he missed in this ‘future’, he decided to stay in the 2000’s to return to his work and once again become the inhabitant of the Matik family ancestral castle.
