QUESTIONNAIRE
Is your character willing to have sex and able to give informed consent?
Yes, he is. While the Creation is young in this form, he is made of parts taken from adults. There is also some indication that he remembers bits and pieces of his lives prior to being reborn. He is aware of the relationships people have with each other and desperately craves that kind of closeness. He has also spent time around animals, both wild and domestic, and understands the concept of procreation. In fact, it is his desire for companionship that drives him to seek out Victor Frankenstein and ask him to make another creation like himself. In the book, he specifies that he wants a wife; in the film, he says ‘companion’. Del Toro is equal opportunity with his horniness.
While he has never been intimate in this form, he is certainly willing to, if it leads him towards his end goal, which is discussed in the next point.
What is the wish your character made? Why did they make it?
He wants to be loved.
His life thus far has been a series of rejections. Victor, who he recognises as his father, ditches him almost immediately after he is reborn, leaving him to fend for himself. He takes off into the woods and spends the winter observing a peasant family, which is where he gets most of his ideas about companionship and love. The family patriarch, an old blind man, even teaches the Creation how to read and speak, and is the father to him that Victor Frankenstein could never be. Unfortunately, the rest of the family are terrified of the Creation when he presents himself, and that’s when he goes off to find Victor and request another like himself.
That ends poorly, and the rest of the story is the Creation pursuing Victor to the literal ends of the earth, where they have their final confrontation in the Arctic.
In any case, what the Creation wants, more than anything, is someone to love him, and not in the Victor Frankenstein “I’m an absent father who maybe sort of comes around to tolerating my child on my deathbed” sense. He has seen other people love, both familial and romantic, and desperately wants that for himself. He tried to love Victor, but was rebuffed; he loved the old man, but got chased away; he wanted someone like himself to love, but Victor wouldn’t make another creation. In the film, Elizabeth treats him well and is very kind to him, so he got a glimmer of what love is like from her. When the Creation is being threatened with a gun, Elizabeth gets in front of him and takes the bullet herself, leading to her death. The only person who loved him loved him enough to die for him, and he never got to experience what it would be like to have someone like Elizabeth in his life. Because the Creation specifically asks Victor for another like himself, we get the sense that he understands what that means and wants a romantic partner.
How will your character initially react to Decadia's setting?
There are so many people, and so much technology! It’s going to be overwhelming for him at first! (Note: the book was published in 1818 but the film takes place in the mid-1850s, so the Creation will understand references up until the latter date.) That said, he’s curious about people and wants to know more about what it’s like to be a part of a society, and so he’ll be eager to take part in the world. There will undoubtedly be missteps, but he’s going to try his hardest.
He'll be delighted by Decadia having a library, and probably fascinated by the theatres. I can easily see him spending a lot of time reading and learning about both Decadia and the other worlds people come from.
What are you most interested in doing with your character in Decadia?
I am here for that sweet Found Family cr as much as I’m here for monsterfucking. It’s what Guillermo del Toro would want.
I want the Creation to start to gain a sense of his own worth, and gradually realise that he doesn’t have to stay on the path Victor put him on. I want him to start making friends on his own, and learn how to function and be a part of other people’s worlds. He has never had a chance to really explore his own wants and desires outside of what others expect from him, so that freedom will be both exhilarating and terrifying. This will also play into what kinds of sex he’s interested in, addressed below.
What aspect of sex appeals to your character the most?
He is a touch-starved Victorian guy, so most of his early encounters are going to be very G-rated. He will be ecstatic if someone wants to hang out with him and hold his hand. Hugs will make him melt completely. The first thing he does upon awakening in the film is hug Victor, who half-heartedly hugs him back. It’s the one hug he gets in the entire film.
As he starts gaining confidence and getting more experience, he’ll very much be a people-pleaser. Whatever another character is into, he’ll do to make them happy and keep them interested in him. This will stop before he gets into anything too deep or unsettling (he is very much capable of defending himself and I’d rather not have him freak out and attack other characters), but hopefully he’ll have some friends by then to set him straight on what healthy relationships look like.
What kinks does your character have, known or unknown to them? Why do they have those particular kinks?
At the beginning, he’ll have no idea beyond a vague sense of wanting to be close to someone. I think that, over time, he’ll develop into someone who is versatile and good, giving, and game for most things. I can absolutely see him being into giving oral, partner body worship, and being exceptionally good at aftercare. Domming won’t come easily or naturally to him—it will remind him too much of people being afraid of him—but he will excel at aftercare. He’ll be the guy who hangs out at the kink club for the sole purpose of cuddling people coming down from sub space.
However, the kinkiest and hottest thing in the world to him will probably be something like spooning all night and waking up next to someone he loves who loves him back.
