Otto I was the oldest son of Heinrich I (the Fowler), and his wife Matilda, the queen of Germany. His wife was Eadgyth. King Otto was researching alchemical secrets in order to create a serum that could heal wounds and bring the dead back to life. He at first thought his research was from God, but as his research created only monsters, he was sure it was the Devil leading him astray. Out of this work he ended up creating a giant, uncontrollable abomination. He had the local priest of Wulfburg seal off the creature, burn down the village, and destroy any records or evidence of his research in the hopes of preventing anyone else from discovering the serum or the monsters on the world again.
