Aloysius Dees, who appears as an example earlier in this chapter, is a Breeder. He’s a maker of life, in the form of homonculi constructed from the bones of children. Dr. Victor Frankenstein is also a Breeder. And both of them are Brain Aspected. Theirs are cerebral endeavors, journeys into the hidden recesses of the natural world driven by instinct. Dr. Moreau is also certainly a Breeder, but his Aspect is a hard one to determine. As played by Charles Laughton in The Island of Lost Souls, he has the gentility and rationalization of objective or scientific good that you get with a Brain Aspected The Batman. But his method is primal and brutal and personal. And his Wants are the same as those of Dees and Frankenstein, for the respect of his peers, which should be considered atypical for a Beast.
