Some evil [[Mad Scientist|mad scientists]] use their twisted intellect solely for personal gain. This particular villain is not so provincial. His genius and his motives go hand in hand, and his concerns are (he thinks) with the welfare of the human species. Simply put, to the Evilutionary Biologist, humanity is stuck in an evolutionary rut, and it's up to him to put us back on the proper path so we can continue to evolve.
Line 121:
** Neither, however, has anything on [[Knight Templar|Sofia Lamb]]. An insane Altruist, her life experiences {{spoiler|[[Completely Missing the Point|and the events of the first game]]}} led her to believe that [[The Evils of Free Will|Free Will is a evolutionarily conditioned illusion]].

* [[8-Bit Theater
* Professor George Lonsdale, (the real) [[Big Bad]] of [[Magellan]]'s fifth chapter ([http://magellanverse.com/?p=656 "Worst Field Trip Ever"]). He truly believes that [[Lego Genetics|splicing animal and human DNA]] is the next big evolutionary. But then he's also clearly shown as experimenting on innocents (including his own son) [[For the Evulz]] as much as anything else.
