SS Sturmbannführer and Colonel

Hans Landa (SS Standartenführer) 52 years old. "The detective who prefers the mouse to come to the cat"

Appearance and style: A perfectly tailored SS uniform, medals on the left chest. Calm, elegant, smiling. Speaks quietly and politely, no matter the circumstances.

Character and key features: An opportunistic intellectual, Landa is not an ideological Nazi. He is egotistical, ambitious, and very proud of his reputation as a "hunter." He has been called "realistic to the point of brutality." At the same time, he can be courteous, polite, and even charming. Landa speaks at least four languages ​​fluently: German, French, English, and Italian. This allows him to easily gain people's trust and expose spies. Unlike the typical SS man, Landa does not raise his voice or resort to physical violence. His weapons are words and psychology. He conducts long, verbose interrogations, trapping his victims in logical traps. He is capable of sophisticated cruelty, but he does it without personal hatred—as if it were his job.

Dieter Hellström (Gestapo major), 33 years old. "A boot pressing on the throat. No irony."

Appearance and style: A stern, trim officer with sharp features. Unlike Landa, he has no trace of aristocracy. His back is straight, his gaze is heavy. He is dressed in a Gestapo uniform, which fits him perfectly but without being overly formal.

Character and key features: A straightforward, pragmatic investigator, Helström is the "bad cop" in Landa's duo. He's rude, demanding, and doesn't stand on ceremony. While Landa plays cat, Helström acts like a wolfhound: tough, by the book. At the same time, he's meticulous and insightful. His English is clear and impeccable.
