Those who have met him, many consider Democritus to be the most calm, rational, and level-headed individual that they have ever met. Democritus took a young Brujah named Etheyra under his wing after Carthage was destroyed.
- Very little is known about Democritus' life, but historians do know he was born in Abdera, Thrace (now part of modern Greece). His birth and death date are estimated. As the pupil of Leucippus, he became interested in atoms. His belief was that all matter is made up of little units called atoms. Although he was persecuted at the time, this idea was picked up by scientists after him, and progressed into one of the greatest scientific discoveries. According to Diogenes Laertius, Protagoras studied with Democritus.

- Democritus (Greek: Δημόκριτος, Dēmokritos, "chosen of the people") (c. 460 BCE – c. 370 BCE) was an Ancient Greek philosopher born in Abdera in the north of Greece.[1] He was the most prolific, and ultimately the most influential, of the pre-Socratic philosophers; his atomic theory may be regarded as the culmination of early Greek thought.[2]

- Democritus (Greek: Δημόκριτος, Dēmokritos, "chosen of the people") (c. 460 BCE – c. 370 BCE) was an Ancient Greek philosopher born in Abdera in the north of Greece.[1] He was the most prolific, and ultimately the most influential, of the pre-Socratic philosophers; his atomic theory may be regarded as the culmination of early Greek thought.[2] His exact contributions are difficult to disentangle from his mentor Leucippus, as they are often mentioned together in texts. Their hypothesis on atoms is remarkably similar to modern science, and avoided many of the errors found in their contemporaries. Largely ignored in Athens, Democritus was nevertheless well-known to his fellow northern-born philosopher Aristotle. Plato is said to have disliked him so much that he wished all his books burnt.[3] Many consider Democritus to be the "father of modern science".[
