Sternritter's History
The Sternritters were created nearly one thousand years prior to the Invasion of the Seireitei. Some time before Yhwach used the Auswahlen to regain his full power he created the Sternritters as a counter to the Shinigami Captains. Among the first were Alexander Sigismund, Robert Accutrone, Marius Schonbaum and Pauline Weingartner. They served part of the Sternritter for nearly thirty years.Sigismund led a coup against Yhwach ten years prior to the start of the invasion of the Seireitei, for reason unknown. Sigismund survived the coup but had his powers taken by the Auswahlen. Robert allegedly sided with Yhwach and remained as a Sternritter.
