This matter, however, only served to push him to obsess over eradicating human error from innovation. His growing interest in improving human performance with technology and eliminating the "grossly inefficient abberation" of human involvement created tension between him and his fellow students and professors who saw the very things Viktor sought to remove as the source of human ingenuity and creativity. At some point prior to 1402, Viktor turned Semira in unknown circumstances. Viktor later (presumably after Sonja's death) began to favor Semira in particular, even trusting her to act as his regent in the Budapest Coven. However, around the time that Selene was turned Viktor sent Semira away, to the Nordic Coven. She would later leave the Nordic Coven for unknown reasons. Viktor Bout is a vegetarian. [112] [113] He claims that he is not a follower of any religion, but considers Leo Tolstoy and Ivan Ilyin to be his spiritual leaders and "shares the views" of Jesus Christ, Buddha, Zarathustra and Krishna. [114] Not much is known about Viktor's relationship with Amelia, though they appeared to have a mutual respect for one another and both allied themselves against Marcus, sharing the common goal of capturing William to preserve their species.

It is likely that Amelia was his only true ally, a relationship that he did not break or damage in any way.

[210] [211] Donald Trump's former chief strategist, Steve Bannon, once called Orbán "Trump before Trump." [165] Viktor's continuing love for Sonja and grief over her loss later motivated him to spare and turn Selene. Viktor clearly views her as his surrogate daughter - a replacement for Sonja - though he takes careful steps to ensure she is completely loyal to him and his cause, starting by telling her that Lycans killed her family, causing her deep-rooted hatred of them.

[140] On 18 April 1993, Orbán became the first president of Fidesz, replacing the national board that had served as a collective leadership since its founding.
