The estimates range of people killed from 80,000 to 500,000. He hate Italians - “We French used to carry Italians, but now Italians are carrying us. We are now the master... They think just because they work for Corleones they have all the power, but I will show that I really have power in my country.” Hermann was eventually killed, but until his death, he held that France City needed him and he never expressed remorse for the abuses of his regime.

He used to be an Elder God, before he betrayed his title, he turned himself on his fellow Gawds, he wanted much more power. He was considered as one of the history`s greatest villains. In much of Western Europe, he is remembered as the epitome of selfishness and deadliness. He attacked Edenia twice and slaughtered most of Orderworld, but was unable to take Earth. He also attempted to conquer Outworld, before he allied to it after a successful negotiation by Emperor Shao Kahn, whom he also raised as his own son but used him as a puppet, too. Subsequently he invaded Ugnaught Prime, devastating the northern provinces, but was unable to take the whole planet over. He planned for further campaigns against the Earthrealmers. He returned in April, 2015 to claim Earth for himself, however, Johnny Cage and his sister Cassie Cage show up along with Kung Jin to stop him. In spite of his newfound power, the fallen God is once again soundly defeated in battle by yet another member of the Cage family. A few minutes later, a corrupted Raiden arrives in the Never Never Land and warns Clurkicus and Adolf Ackermann (both who are on the list of Top 10 Scariest Serial Killers), now the de facto leaders of the Never Land, not to threaten Earth lest they face fates worse than death. As a final warning, he shows them the severed, albeit still living head of Shinnok.
