Fact 1: The dog tags you see around his neck were used by the Germans in WW1 starting in 1916.

Fact 2: Heisenberg has been with Miranda since he was a child. Miranda lost Eva in 1919 and began her experiments shortly thereafter.

Fact 3: Lady Dimitrescu was turned before Heisenberg which is why she calls him child. Dimitrescu was turned at some point in the 1940s or 1950s fully grown and during WW2.

Fact 4: Heisenberg is a German name, but the Heisenberg family from which Karl is a descendant of was present in Romania prior to his change. He inherited the factory that was already built in the village in Romania by the time he was born. This means that he did not immigrate from Germany.

So in conclusion Heisenberg’s family was present in Romania prior to the start of WW2 and he was taken for experimentation by Miranda around the same time or shortly after Dimitrescu was turned during the war. The dog tags are most likely either a relic of WW2 he found aesthetically pleasing or, more likely IMO, a product of WW1 that came with his family when they settled in Romania. Also I will again point out that while Heisenberg is 100% a villain/bad guy he NEVER experimented on living subjects like the other lords or Nazis. His army is built from the dead bodies that have piled up under Miranda’s own neglect. Thank you that is all~

Edit: But that is not all. I’ve also seen people pointing to the film Frankenstein’s Army (2013) as proof that the film that clearly inspired a lot of Heisenberg and his monsters is a nazi horror movie. Well I watched it today and guess what?

*Film spoilers below, it’s actually kind of an awesome/cheesy movie*

The titular army is largely comprised of dead nazis because the Frankenstein who created it turned on them. He didn’t agree with what they were doing and was making an army of the dead to try to end the war once and for all. The Frankenstein in this did use live subjects though so Capcom did make Heisenberg to be a bit better. Now that is all~
