Ovierview
(Note: Due to the lack of canon in the universe of the SCP Foundation, there at least two major versions of Robert Bumaro. They are described below)

The Spanish Bumaro
Robert Bumaro is one of the most high-ranking leaders of the Church of the Broken God, notably the faction known as the "The Broken Church" (GOI-004A), who has led the group during the 19th and 20th Century.

It is speculated that he might have been a veteran in the Spanish Civil War.

Around 1942 the priest and his followers tried to resurect Mekhane, near La Paz, Mexico.

Bumaro had gathered a great amount of pieces of their deity, but lacked his "heart", which led to the idea of asking The Factory built one for them. The heart was made, but the entity that was created was not the logical deity the Church had hoped for, but an aggressive being that started to consume everything it came across, including it's own followers.

The SCP Foundation contacted the Global Occult Coalition (back then known as the "Allied Occult Initiative") to destroy the entity which was achieved. This event was one of the biggest cover-ups the Foundation ever had to, which included massive amounts of amnesiacs and the rewriting of history.

The "Ancient" Bumaro
Another belief is that Bumaro is an ancient prophet-like figure of the Mekhanites, who lived during the Bronze Age. He was present during the war between the Mekhanites and early Sarkites, and could be considered to be the counterpart of Grand Karcist Ion, the savior of Sarkicism.

This interpretation of Bumaro is often described to have a mechanized body, and carrying a massive hammer.
