It is ''very'' loosely based on the real, historical mystery of "the Beast of Gévaudan" — a creature which allegedly killed almost 100 people, most of them women and children, over a three year period in a remote, rural area of 18th century UsefulNotes/{{France}} corresponding to modern-day [[UsefulNotes/DepartementalIssues Lozère]]. In the summer of 1764, King UsefulNotes/LouisXV arranged a great hunt, and a wolf claimed to be the beast was slain, but subsequently more killings took place. "The Beast" has never been identified.

* RomanticismVersusEnlightenment: Zigzagged. [[spoiler:The titular Brotherhood are Catholic aristocrats using the Beast of Gévaudan as a way of putting the fear of God back into the French populace and increasing the power of the Church over the King. TheHero, Grégoire de Fronsac, is a naturalist fighting for Enlightenment principles, and is able to deduce [[ScoobyDooHoax the real nature of the Beast]] early on. However his sidekick Mani is a legitimate MagicalNativeAmerican whose healing powers turn out to be [[RealAfterAll real]], and the Brotherhood ends up being brought down by the Vatican itself. The {{Bookends}} also shows an older Marquis d'Apcher about to be guillotined by a mob during the ReignOfTerror brought about by those same Enlightenment ideas. He accepts his fate with fatalism as a casualty of the death of the old world that TheConspiracy tried to preserve.]]
