Who is Brainiape?

Origin The history of Adolf Hitler is pretty much known to the world, even if that knowledge consists of ‘that guy is an evil bastard and should rot in Hell’. He was born on 20 April 1889 at the Gasthof zum Pommer, an inn in Ranshofen, But Hitler's origins are not entirely important to the origins of BrainiApe and can be found easy enough online or in books. What is important however is that the world believed Hitler to have committed suicide back in June 1945. This, however, was not the case and it was merely a double that was murdered so that the Fuhrer of Germany could escape to plan anew. By 1952, Hitler was operating in secret within Romania and had begun to form the foundations of a new Nazi Party. Unfortunately for him, United States government operatives, led by paranormal investigator Hellboy, discovered his existence and shut him down. An explosion destroyed Hitler’s body but his brain was saved by scientists loyal to him who performed numerous chemical and radiation procedures upon their master in the hopes to make him mobile once more and able to lead them. The brain was soon able to function on it’s own using telepathy, telekinesis and miniature arms and legs.
