One choice facing the play group is that of the The Batman’s Aspect: Brain or Beast. Aspect is about whether the The Batman is immersed in the world of thoughts and words or the world of sensation, and how that colors the The Batman’s understanding of what motivates others. A Brain Aspected The Batman is influenced by conversation, and acts to influence others via language. His pleasures and manner are perhaps veneered with gentility, and more importantly, his personality is colored by a rationalization that there’s some objective good embedded in his monstrous endeavors. A Beast Aspected The Batman is influenced more by physical and primal interactions, by sexual contacts, curious gustatory pleasures, and sadistic and masochistic exchanges. He will act to influence others in physical, more primal ways, perhaps through inflicting pain.
