In 1936, a Sherpa Gunner resided in Patan, Nepal, working as a sherpa and a hired thug for travelers. That year, he served as one of the henchmen for Nazi Gestapo intelligence agent Major Arnold Ernst Toht, along with many others, as the German visited Patan to retrieve the headpiece to the Staff of Ra from Marion Ravenwood's bar, The Raven. This was part of Toht's mission to unearth the Ark of the Covenant in the Well of Souls in Tanis, on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt. However, during a confrontation where Marion was being burned, American archaeologist Indiana Jones appeared, leading to a shootout. The Gunner was killed during the fight.
Biography[]
LEGO Indiana Jones[]
A Nepalese man living in Patan, Nepal worked as a guide and a hired thug. In 1936, he was recruited by Major Arnold Ernst Toht, a Nazi Gestapo intelligence agent, to assist in obtaining the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra. Their target was Marion Ravenwood, an American who owned The Raven bar. When they confronted Marion at her bar, Indiana Jones intervened, leading to a gunfight and the bar catching fire.
During the battle, the Sherpa gunner took cover behind the burning bar and shot at Jones and Marion. However, they defeated him by throwing objects at him. Though initially presumed dead, the gunner survived and later attacked Jones and others in the Himalayas. In their final encounter, Jones and Ravenwood defeated and killed the gunner.

Trivia[]
- The Sherpa Gunner was a boss in the video game LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures in the level "Into the Mountains". Once Toht is defeated for the first time, he throws a burning stick towards the bar counter, and a fire surrounds it. Then, the Sherpa Gunner pops up and starts shooting at the player. He can only be killed by having bottles and chairs thrown at him by the player, and once he is dead, his machine gun can be picked up and used against Toht
