Clovis Bray I: Difference between revisions
→Personality and Traits
| Line 37: | Line 37: | ||
According to his own notes, Bray apparently had an antipathy toward women. This, combined with his megalomania, may have prompted his decision to donate his own mitochondrial DNA to his children in lieu of their mother's during their embryonic development. He was also obsessed with micromanaging his family line, and seemed to resent his adopted granddaughter [[Anastasia Bray|Ana]] over her genetics, though it's unclear whether this is outright racism or simply rejection of non-Bray DNA. Despite his desire to become an Exo himself, Clovis I would spin up several instances of the same person's exomind to further study the exact ways in which they inevitably died suffering, suggesting a lack of empathy or regard for ethics. | According to his own notes, Bray apparently had an antipathy toward women.

==Trivia== | |||
Upon the release of the [[Mysterious Logbook]], initial speculation was that Clovis I's more bizarre characteristics were symptomatic of autism. Writer [[Seth Dickinson]] replied to this with, "For whatever it's worth I never once thought of him as autistic. I think that would be a terrible and irresponsible decision to make in writing this character...From my outsider POV I feel like it would be awful to hear "this guy is autistic so he does experiments on humans and has severe issues with women and doesn't care about right and wrong." That's not an effect of autism." | |||
