Long before the Second World War, Eddie served in the Royal Navy . One day, in service at Invergordon in Scotland, at a naval base, he was in charge of putting an end to a mutiny in 1931 on the ship Hood led by his brother Marc , also in the army as an officer, Commander of the famous ship. Eddie was ordered to execute his own brother, which he refused. Finally Marc was sent to the Russian front and ended his life in a gulag, leaving a wife and two children. Eddie took over the family of his brother but left the Navy, are finding no place [1] .

The London Blitz

Gorm was not afraid of the German bombardments, unlike his friend who would have liked to leave the quays some time for their safety.

However, Stan appealed to a certain Jack Turpin and his right arm Robert Burton, famous notorious bandits who wanted to hire the dockers and their band for a break in town.

Two years later, and now a trusted defector and officer in the SS, the "Untersturmfurher" Gorm discovered that the atomic program of the Germans was in fact a front for the development of a Templar device, Die Glocke. However, Eddie blew his cover in the process and had to flee. He joined a group of Americans, who revealed themselves to be Assassins. Through them Eddie discovered he descended from a long line of Assassins and decided to join the Brotherhood.

On 27 February 1943, he was parachuted in Vemork, a Norwegian hydroelectric plant. He aided in the infiltration of the plant to stop the Templars from finishing their secret weapon.

However, Eddie was captured and put into a very early prototype of the Animus, powered by an Apple of Eden. Because his grandson Maxime Gorm was reliving his memories through the Animus at the same time, there was a defect in synchronization and Eddie's consciousness was switched with Maxime's and he woke up in the 21th century.
