Limitations:
  • Coldly Scientific: In nearly all of the appearances of Moreau, he remains a detached figure whose single-minded pursuit of scientific breakthrough makes him oblivious to morale action, suffering, or anything short of his goals. In such cases, Moreau actually suffers a -1cs to his Intuition to either recognize the danger of his actions or to empathize with his subjects or guests.
  • Unethical: In most portrayals, Moreau is represented as unethical, and is willing to break the law or subvert and manipulate people when necessary. As such, it is implied in most adaptations that Moreau is not only shunned by the scientific community, but also perhaps wanted for his actions.
  • Arrogance: In addition to his inability to empathize, Moreau is often portrayed as incredibly arrogant, caring very little for others and often becoming infuriated if questioned. Moreau's arrogance can get the better of him, granting a penalty of -1cs to actions when enraged.
