Strengths:
1. Stays focused on the "fight" [though, not necissarily the match].
2. Very compact and muscular, so he could be seen as powerful.
3. Good with holds and reversing them.

Weaknesses:
1. He takes focus away from match to trying to hurt the opponent, usually keying in on the neck.
2. Speed isn't on his side.
3. Doesn't like the fact of the ref telling him what's right or not, so he's likely to act out sometimes on that.

Background: 

Gregorius Ferdinand Van Eyderstyn was born to a great estate in the area just northwest of Munster. His parents were decendants of a line line of royalty and their parents before them and before them as well. Never, though, did the Van Eyderstyn family have royal blood in them, but instead were extremely loyal followers and friends of the ruling party that they were bestowed an honor of being Graf. This title was sent down generation after generation until the royalty of Prussia died.

Van Eyderstyn's family, however, continued on as if their title still meant anything. Their estate, so large as it was, held many people to work on, which the family called their "citizens". They also made sure to toll those who used the roads nearby, taxed the people, and pretty much have their own government under cloak from the German officials.

Like before, the Van Eyderstyn family kept their ties to the leaders of the state to ensure their prominance. Gregorius Ferdinand Van Eyderstyn inherited this all in 1997 at the young age of 32. Instead, though, he gave back the land to his parents for them to oversee and run - now which doesn't have any of the taxing, levving, or "citizens" anymore - to go over to America.

From there, his history seems cloudy. He supported himself through money from the estate, but why he left the estate and came over to America is not really known. All that's known is that for those three years, he went to various academies to enhance himself in fighting techniques. It is during these training sessions that he met Gesetz & Ordnung, both of whom were "training" as well [though, they were found outside of the academies, not training inside].

From there, he looked around for a place to shine, to declare as his own and "add" to his estate holdings. He used Gesetz & Ordnung as his seconds in command, mostly to use as a physical force.
