Leon Oppenhauser

Leon Oppenhauser was a professor lecturing at the Oxenfurt Academy around and who was best known for inventing a perpetual motion device.
== Biography ==
After spending years on what was to be his greatest invention, in April 1268, Oppenhauser finally managed to create a functioning perpetual motion. After euphorically checking it, he rushed to the deanery and thunderously invited colleagues and students present to come and see. Unfortunately, due to a shockwave caused by the magical annihilation of far-away Stygga Castle by the Lodge of Sorceresses, it stopped working.
Nevertheless, academia recognized the importance of Oppenhauser's discovery. To honor him, a statue of him was erected on the square in front of two of the university's entrances with an inscription on it which reads:
:For Professor Leon OppenhauserLecturer of the University of OxenfurtMan of an unbroken spiritAnd of great intellectInventor of the perpetual motionDevice that permanently changedThe face of the world
== Trivia ==
* Oppenhauser used the same words as Galileo Galilei. On the other hand, his surname is an obvious homage to another scientist, J. Robert Oppenheimer, credited with being the "father of the atomic bomb".
