Fritz Sorgebrunnen

Agent Fritz is an agent in the Department of Floaters.

Backstory
Fritz Sorgebrunnen is a History major (with a minor in English) from Eau Claire, Wisconsin. He started out as a member of the civilian reporting force, disgusted as he was with the terrible quality of most online fanfiction. Following the Macrovirus Epidemic, however, someone made the decision to recruit him as a full-time agent, likely to help boost the ranks that had been depleted by the epidemic. Fritz had just barely put his affairs in order and been brought to HQ, however, when the Mary-Sue Invasion began. Unused to combat, he nearly lost a hand in the subsequent fracas.

Following a stint in Medical and his official Agent training, Fritz began work in the Department of Floaters, where he stayed due to never taking a preference for any one canon realm. Bad luck seemed to follow him, however, causing him to go through no fewer than three partners in the course of roughly a year's worth of work. His last partner, Agent Cab, was driven insane by a particularly bad case of circular logic, and had to be subdued when she attempted to commit fanwriter homicide.

Appearance
Fritz is 5'8" and weights 175 pounds, with dark blond hair worn short and blue eyes (belying his German-Scandinavian heritage). He is slightly overweight but quite physically capable. Even before coming to the PPC, 90% of his wardrobe was black, mostly for simplicity's sake rather than any other reason.

Personality
Fritz is a worrier at heart, and something of a perfectionist; diagnosed with chronic anxiety, he can always find something to be nervous about, though he usually does his best to put on a good outward face. He is also an extremely hardline Grammar Nazi, taking violent and vicious offense to Sues who belabor his beloved English language-- especially with capitalization errors, which he considers the easiest to get right and thus the worst offense when gotten wrong.

That said, Fritz does enjoy his job enough to prefer it over leaving and the required neuralyzation, and is willing to make friends with people fairly fast if they're willing to reciprocate the gesture. His work may not be the best choice for him-- when on the job, he becomes significantly more aggressive, and prone to using varying doses of violence to solve problems. He may also be slightly psychotic-- according to his previous partners, he takes perhaps a little too much delight from his job of executing Sues, which clashes somewhat with his preferred fandoms and which may partially explain why he stays.

Other
Fritz's favorite weapon is an aluminum baseball bat, into which he has burned the signatures of multiple canon creators to allow it to be used as an exorcism tool as well as an effective bludgeoning instrument. These include most notably Gabe Newell, Michael DiMartino, Satoshi Tajiri, and (strangely, because almost nothing is known about him) Akiyoshi Hongo.

Fritz and Silas won the "Worst Formatting Killed" trophy for their first mission together, but relinquished it to Agents Chliever and Winston when the latter killed the fic "my fanmade version of fma."

Mission Log
Mission One- Fritz's first mission with Silas, in which the grammar and punctuation are worse opponents than the Sue.
