Early Life
Rahner grew up in a life of wealth and luxury but was also quite independent. From a young age, Rahner was keenly interested in politics and his father's business. He attended a private school in Merenburg and graduated in 4217. He then attended the Bundesuniversitat in Merenburg where he met his future friend and political ally Gunther Weingartner.. After Rahner graduated, he set up his own business with support from his father. Eventually, the business became profitable and Rahner began to expand it. By 4230, Rahner was one of the wealthiest men in Merenburg, surpassing the wealth of his father. In 4238, Rahner and Weingartner founded the NLP and he left his company to be managed by his father.

Political Career
Rahner entered the Bundestag for the first time in the 4239 elections. For most of his tenure, he remained quiet and allowed Weingartner to make most decisions. Rahner also expressed support for a referendum on the monarchy. Rahner was known as a strong supporter of the Thallerist Parties.

Weingartner's Shooting
When Weingartner was shot, Rahner took control of the party as acting leader. When Weingartner died, Rahner took formal leadership. From this point onwards, Rahner shifted the party to an extremely pro-Thallerist platform advocating for support of a restoration of the Reich.

Joining the ER
In 4245, Rahner joined the ER and disbanded the party.
