Cold calculating. He aspires to upper classes which drive him to impress and gain fame and notoriety as a means to get there. He sees the family’s grounding in sciences and medicine not worthy of the fame and money that he desires.

However his journey to power and fame led him into some dark corners making bargains with groups he poorly understood who corrupted him enough to see an angle that his previous background knowledge could pervert and bring about the fame and power he so desires.
