| The absolute best example of a Collector Type The Batman has to
| | |
| be P.T. Barnum. The distinction between the Brain and
| |
| Beast Aspects for Collector Type The Batmans is at the level of
| |
| why they collect what they collect. Barnum personifies the
| |
| Brain Aspect by his aggregation of freaks seemingly out of
| |
| twisted cerebral motives simply to have and be known for
| |
| having the most impressive collection. In contrast, a Beast
| |
| Aspected Collector is typically working toward some kind of
| |
| monstrous self-reinvention. Buffalo Bill, from Silence of the
| |
| Lambs, just barely qualifies, in that he has very specific
| |
| requirements for each of the components of his collection,
| |
| and criteria for determining when the collection is complete.
| |
| This is what differentiates the Collector from the Feeder.
| |
| The extent to which Countess Bathory is indiscriminate in
| |
| who she gets blood from, and lacks a vision of somehow
| |
| achieving an aesthetically satisfying state of completeness, is
| |
| the extent to which she falls more into the Feeder Type.
