The Monster
This eight foot tall creation of Victor Frankenstein is brought to life through the integration of old body parts and strange chemicals, and becoming animated by a mysterious spark. The monster enters a life of an enormously strong being but with the mind of a newborn. Abandoned and confused, the monster tries to integrate himself into society, only to be ostracized universally. The monster ultimately becomes aware of his monstrous physique, a feature of his character that blinds society from his initially gentle and kind nature. Upon his abandonment from his creator, he seeks revenge on his creator, murdering Victor’s younger brother, Victor’s best friend, and Victor's newly wedded wife; indirectly, the monster causes the deaths of Victor's father and adopted sister.
While Victor feels absolute hatred for his creation, the monster's actions reveal that he is not purely an evil being. The monster’s eloquent narration of his experiences exhibits his astonishing perception, sensitivity, and benevolence. He assists a group of poor peasants and even saves a girl from drowning but is rewarded negatively with only beatings and disgust because of his physical appearance. Separated between vengefulness and compassion, the monster ends up lonely and agonized by repentance. Even the death of his creator provides only bittersweet solace to the monster. The monster's actions result in happiness because of the sufferings that Victor has brought upon him, and sadness because Victor is the only person with whom he has had any sort of relationship and is the reason for whom he had to live.
