As a young man he learns a few spells, but can't really manage much in the way of real power. He uses his only assets, his charisma and his limited magical knowledge to mentally dominate certain important governmental figures. By the time anyone is the wiser it's too late to stop his rise to power. Now he's in charge of Germany and is trying to create a golden age for the country where genetic and magical superiority are everything.With a little magic on his side, Hitler can rise to power without the benefit of "the right political climate" and other factors that led to his gaining power IRL. He then sets about realising the fruition of his own personal agendas (whatever they may be).No doubt he'd have a secret police force under him with magic users filling out the ranks, specially trained to hunt, capture and/or kill enemy spellcasters. Magical breeding experiments might result in demihuman races, or if demihumans already exist, they might be forced to take part in such programs; they might also end up in camps where they are the subject of experiments which seek to divine the source of their inherent "magical nature". His fascination with the occult goes well with this sort of campaign. His agents would be everywhere trying to secure religious relics and supposed magical artifacts. His scientists would probably be working with the spellcasters to create magi-tech superweapons, or aberrant nightmarish creatures.Hitler himself would acually be a second rate magic user. After all, in real life he didn't even come close to representing the ideal race he put so much stock in.</blockquote>
