The Commissioner Background . Austrian " Dark Chocolate King " turned global buildings protector . Kaiju Commissioner shielding human community by leading sanctioned Big Battels . Or else whole Earth lay out in ruinous rubble . Is he a puppet of superpowers or the most powerful man in the world ? Does he rule Kaiju ' s or do Kaijus rule him ? No one really the knowing . Some say naive , others say magnificent , all say only one to organize Kaiju Big Battel for human viewing and safety . The Choco - Austrian Peace Keeper . Peacekeeping is both a blessing and a curse for the Kaiju Commissioner , a shadowy human - arbitrator appointed by a top - secret supranational committee to mediate monster mayhem . Born during Hitler ' s reign , the future monster - moderator was a progeny of two poor Serbian immigrants living in a remote Austrian village . For most of World War II , the family ' s mountainside hideaway escaped Nazi attention — until one fateful afternoon , when the eight - year - old Commissioner was playing Austrian Chase ( a variation of Checkers ) with his father , and an ear - splitting crash came from outside their lilliputian log cabin . Two Nazi battalions , lost on their way to Russia , had thundered into the township and opened fire on one another . So the Commissioner ' s dad , a kind of community peacemaker who could turn a raucous pub - fight into a bear hug in less than two minutes , ran outside with a white flag . But for the first and only time in his life , the Commissioner ' s father failed to make peace : while the Brownshirts obliterated one another , a Nazi tank turned him into roadkill . If his father ' s tragic death wasn ' t enough , the scrawny child soon suffered another calamity . Less than two years later , his mother became deathly ill . So to cover the cost of her medicine , the Commissioner got a job as a " cocoa bean boy " at the Goutendiva chocolate factory . For the next ten years , the " Commish , " as he would become known later in life , toiled day - in and day - out , parlaying his position as lowly bean boy into the esteemed role of Vice President of Chocolate Affairs for Goutendiva . His mother , recognizing that her self - motivated boy had a knack for selling , managing , and marketing sugary substances , urged her son to leave Goutendiva . So at the age of 22 , the Commissioner resigned and channeled everything he knew about cacao beans into his own chocolate business . The Kaiju Commissioner worked tirelessly for the next seven years . When the Commissioner was 29 , Die Fortuno Magazine declared him both " Dark Chocolate King " of Eastern Europe and the richest man in all of Austria . But such wealth and notoriety came at a price : the twentysomething worked 100 - hour weeks and had no social life . After seven long years of living a cloistered , but extremely productive existence , the " Dark Chocolate King " burnt out : his complexion turned as dark as his product and his doctor said he wouldn ' t see the age of 30 if he didn ' t rest . So the Kaiju Commissioner relented , embarking on the first vacation of his life and his first step outside of Austria . The experience would change his life forever . Although he was as rich as a Saudi Sultan , the Dark Chocolate King was as naive as a country boy . Wide - eyed , he visited both ends of the socio - economic spectrum : he traversed everywhere from the pretentious high - couture of Paris to the tribal homesteads of Africa . This intercontinental jaunt made him privy to injustice , misery , and famine . Until this trip , the Commissioner had guilelessly believed that his father was a victim of circumstance , but after witnessing inequality first - hand , the Commissioner realized that his father was a casualty in the never - ending struggle between good and evil , the haves and the have - nots , and war and peace . Returning to his homeland , the Kaiju Commissioner defined his new mission in life as ending the miseries of the global society . He became a high - profile philanthropist and a steadfast spokesman for " the little guy . " His international reputation for dogged determination served him well : he quickly secured a position as a UN peace dignitary . After serving four consecutive terms , he was nominated for the Nobel Peace prize for his work in war - torn Sierra Leone and became known as a leading expert on world peace . Around this time , there was an intergalactic crisis brewing . Scattered throughout the galaxy was a monstrous mob of maniacal villains , menacing alien beasts , and giant , city - crushing monsters waging war against one another , their flared tempers and petty disagreements occasionally erupting into bouts of interstellar fighting . But within the last couple of years , monster rumbles had precipitated a record number of disasters on the planet earth : ruinous tornados , devastating earthquakes , geyser eruptions , and stock - market crashes . Until now , the transnational community had been able to keep the warring Kaiju a secret , blaming their catastrophes on Mother Nature and bad financial planning . But now , a covert task force of global leaders that furtively monitored monster mayhem recognized that something had to be done before it was too late . If the security council didn ' t act fast , the entire world would be destroyed . So the most important security position in the history of the world was created : the Kaiju Commissioner . The obvious choice for the position was Austrian UN dignitary , his past experience as a CEO , manual laborer , and resolute peacemaker qualifying him for this most serious role . To this day , the Kaiju Commissioner is so crucial to world safety that his true identity must remain confidential : he only makes television appearances in silhouette . If Kaiju Commissioner doesn ' t do his job - or if civilization isn ' t careful - the entire world could get caught in the crossfire of the Kaiju Big Battel . The Truth Behind the Commissioner . Gunter Acrisius Schüssel was born in Poppendorf , Austria , a small village near the Styrian capital of Graz , on March 26 , 1947 . His parents were Gustav Schüssel ( 1907 – 1979 ) , a local confectioner , and his wife Aléka Petropoulou ( 1922 – 1998 ) . They were married on October 20 , 1945 – Gustav was 38 at the time , and Aléka was a 23 - year - old Greek model . How they met is not known . According to Gunter , both of his parents were very strict . " Back then , in Austria , it was a very different world . If we did something bad or we disobeyed our parents , the wooden spoon was not spared . " He grew up in a religious family , and attended church service every Sunday . Gustav had shown a preference for Meinhard , the younger of his two sons . His favoritism was " strong and blatant , " which may have stemmed from the unfounded suspicion that Gunter was not his biological child . Gunter has said his father had " no patience for listening or understanding your problems … he only was concerned with one thing : making the perfect bonbons . " In later life , Gunter commissioned research into his father ' s wartime record , which came up with no evidence of atrocities despite Gustav ' s membership in the Nazi Party . Gunter had a good relationship with his mother , however , and kept in contact with her until her death . Kaiju Commissioner At school , Gunter was academically in the middle of the pack , but stood out for his " cheerful , good - humored and exuberant " character , according to one teacher . Money was a problem in the household , particularly growing up in a Cold War - torn Austria ; Gunter has recalled that one of the highlights of his youth was when the family bought an electric mixer . As a boy , Gunter played many sports — heavily influenced by his father . However , at the age of 14 , Gunter chose to join the debate team over the football ( soccer ) team . In response to questioning related to when he started his debate career , Gunter said " I actually started debate training when I was fifteen , but I ' d been participating in games , like chess , for years , so I felt that although I was inexperienced , I was mentally well - developed , at least enough so that I could start going to the debates and start debating . " Later during questioning , however , he claimed that " at 14 , ( he ) started an intensive training program with Professor Don Frakenmer , studied psychology at 15 ( to learn more about the power of mind over body ) and at 17 , officially started ( his ) competitive debating career . " Eventually , however , Gunter debated internally whether the debate circuit was meant for him . " I had to decide my life ' s plan at 14 . My father wanted me to be a confectioner , like he was . My mother wanted me to go to trade school . I wanted neither ; I hated chocolate , and I wanted to use my head , not my hands , to make a difference in the world , " Gunter said . Conflicted and looking for inspiration , Gunter took to visiting a poetry cafe in Graz , where he also frequented the local movie theaters to see his idols on the big screen . " I was inspired by individuals like Sean Connery and Alec Guinness , " Gunter says . When Guinness died in 2000 , Gunter fondly remembered him : " As a teenager , I grew up with Alec Guinness . His remarkable accomplishments allowed me a sense of what was possible , when others around me didn ' t always understand my dreams . He has been part of everything I ' ve ever been fortunate enough to achieve . " In 1961 , Gunter met former Austrian chocolate champ Hinrich Dossel , who invited him to a " Bake - Off " at the Grand Hotel in Graz , where his life would take a 180 turn . He discovered his disdain for chocolate was just a way to mask his feelings towards his father . He realized chocolate was in his blood , and that the possibilities were so much broader than what his father would " allow ( him ) to achieve " . After this discovery , he became so dedicated that he would break into his father ' s bakery on weekends , when it was usually closed , so that he could make chocolate bars . " I had my father ' s expertise at my disposal , but I didn ' t want to be chained by his oppression . I learned the craft , all his secrets , under his nose . " Gunter exhibited his creations under a pseudonym , so as not to incur his father ' s wrath . " It would make me sick to miss a Bake - Off . . . I knew I couldn ' t look at myself in the mirror the next morning if I didn ' t do it . " The Schusser Chocolate Factory In 1978 , Gunter ' s brother Meinhard died in a political riot while living in Greece . Meinhard had been running a baklava bakery owned by his aunt and was killed when the bakery was firebombed by Dourakos rebels . Gunter did not attend the funeral . Meinhard was married to a Greek woman named Elene Noxious , and the couple shared a six - year - old son named Louden . One month after her husband ' s death , Elene was killed as well , once again from another Dourakos attack . Gunter had not spoken with Meinhard in over a decade , but upon learning of young Louden ' s existence six years later , Gunter paid for his education and a life in the United States . Gustav died in 1978 from a stroke , one year after his younger son ' s death . Gunter claimed he did not attend his father ' s funeral because he was traveling the world and was out of contact with his family , although testimonies from other sources indicate at least three other stories of why he did not attend his father ' s funeral . Barbi Sazi , his first serious girlfriend , said he informed her of his father ' s death without emotion and never spoke of his brother , either . With Meinhard ' s death leaving him the sole heir to his father ' s business , he took over and turned it into a multi - billion dollar company . By this time , Gunter ' s exploits as a chocolatier were no longer a secret to the rest of the world , and with the specter of his father no longer hanging over him , Gunter became king of the candy world . Nevertheless , Gunter seemed to use what " would now be called child abuse " from his father as motivation to succeed and surpass him . " He was a brilliant confectioner but a horrible parent . My hair was pulled . I was hit with cookie sheets . So was the kid next door . It was just the way it was . Many of the children I ' d seen were broken by their parents , which was the German - Austrian mentality . They didn ' t want to create an individual . It was all about conforming . I was one who did not conform , and whose will could not be broken . Therefore , I became a rebel . Every time I got hit , and every time someone said , ' you can ' t do this , ' I said , ' this is not going to be for much longer , because I ' m going to move out of here . I want to be rich . I want to be somebody . ' "
