Nicknamed "The Cyclops" because of a damaged left eye that he doesn't bother to cover, Vjorn Horstmann rose to power in the Ministry of Science after his intensive study of lycanthropy suggested that soldiers could be enhanced with controllable animal features. Horstmann now experiments on criminals, prisoners of war and anyone else hapless enough to fall into his control. His goal of the perfect beast-men remains out of reach for now, so he oversees the ministry's design of new war engines for battlefield use. The results are never as reliable as sorcery, but Drakov's biases ensure the Ministry of Science receives the lion's share of research monies from Drakov's war chest.
