In one world, the Baron later described his “first monster” as having been ‘born’ with “an adult mind” but “a newborn soul”. Extremely intelligent, but ignorant of the world, he had lashed out in fear against an unfamiliar universe, digging himself in deeper and ending up retreating to a criminal lifestyle. He ultimately attempted to kill Baron Frankenstein, but, in that particular world, was unsuccessful. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)
