"My great strength is wasted on your great weakness!"


Victor is the final creation of the mad scientist Victor von Gerdenheim, whom he shares his name with. Shortly after giving his creation life, Dr. Gerdenheim died and was found by the newly animated Victor. Despite these strange circumstances, Victor is a happy-go-lucky person who greatly cares for others and will do whatever he can to save those in need.

Lacking an understanding of what life or death really was, Victor interpreted the Doctor's lack of movement as a sign of disapproval. Because of this, Victor believed that if he became strong and was able to prove himself as a worthy creation, the Doctor would finally accept him. After departing the castle, Victor wanders in search of powerful opponents to prove his strength to the Doctor.
