1991, Florida, Jacksonville.
His experiments on genetics produced surprising results, he discovered a latent gene present in all humans, the witches powers are the result of this latent gene being partially activated. His own gene is almost completely integrated with his DNA and activated.
He still haven't find a way to manipulate this gene, but he know how to forced the gene to wake up, the results are unpredictable sometimes it gives the ability of Pyrokinesi, Telekinesis or Telepathy. The capacity to use all of them like the witches do requires the gene to be more active but he doesn't have the mean to do it.
He also discovered that when "monsters" DNA is add to humans physical mutation like slit pupils or more prominent deformities appears. The conclusion is that the humans can't assimilate the DNA of monsters.
But there is other ways to increase the physical capacities, werewolves are a good example of successful physical mutations, the curse responsable for their mutation must have modified the role the gene play.
A subject coming from a long line of witches and with a large quantity of magic would be perfect.
Maybe a doppelganger would work think Sammael.

The meeting continues for an hour before ending.
