The power to **use the archetypal traits of a mad scientist**. Variation of Scientist and Fictional Trope Physiology.

### The Archetype of:

Use the archetypal traits of a mad scientist.

## Also Called

* Mad Professor
* Mad Researcher
* Spark (*Girl Genius*)
* Super-Scientist (*The Venture Bros.*)

## Properties

The user is a Mad Scientist, a scientist that dabbles in pseudoscience or performs very unethical/crazy experiments, the main reason why they are considered as "mad" or "insane" for good reason sometimes for the dangerous pursuit in attempting to play God with their science that can break the laws of physics/nature or to simply rule over the people who fail to recognize or value the life they treat as nothing more than subjects to prove their corrupt and wrapped intelligence.

Mad scientists may be villainous (evil geniuses) or antagonistic, benign or neutral for good reasons, but some may be benevolent with good-spirited intentions, even if their actions are dangerous or questionable, which can make them accidental villains, but they do have the best interests at heart.
