   My brain has been hijacked by mutant plot bunnies!
I sometimes have these random bursts of information that careen around my head for a few days. The newest is a story that may or may not be called "Gaea Theory." I do so love figuring out the characters. So far, it's going to end up with tons and tons of characters, two of which are Mad Scientists. One of which is named Josef [I'm thinking Nemo or Nabokov for a last name]. Here's a little bit about him:

Josef is a rather brooding man in his early thirties. He is quite smart, but dreadfully cynical and embittered. In typical mad scientist fashion, he tends to think more with his head than with his heart. He was a child prodigy, but he was raised by terribly vain and cruel parents. After the third World War, in which he lost his parents, he was taken in by the government at the tender age of fifteen. he worked happily there for many years and pioneered many of the grand experiments. As he got older, however, he became more and more withdrawn. He hates socializing and the company of other people. Bright lights make him feel sickly, so he prefers to work in very dim lights. Because of this, he is very pale and kind of greenish. He isn't all that bad looking however, and has brown hair that is abbout chin-length (he keeps it tied back most of the time) and tinted glasses that obscure his eyes. He is very thin and prefers to wear plain shirts, slacks, and his lab coat (wouldn't be a mad scientist without that last bit, dontcha know.)

Bonus points if you can guess who he's named after in regards to his first name. It gives you a clue as of his opinion on human life and his "work."
