Emotions were the total downfall of intelligence? Since when? if ANything, emotions are what made humanity as a whole progress further throughout the centuries. It should not come as a surprise that our sense of inferiority towards gods makes humanity attempt to achieve perfection and become closer to them. Impossible goal, sure, but some of it drives us further......

Emotions lead to creativity and unpredictability. without them, you're basically doing your fancy calculations by the book, and makes the character easily predictable and suspectible to being manipulated by... anyone else, really. Ever heard of emotional intelligence? according to the Wikipedia, people argue if that's the real intelligence around. I've been told so all my life!!!

of course, true geniuses are those who balance those kinds of intelligence. You might have your own perspective of intelligence and that's fine, but I also have my own (that's why giving a negative vote to your character would be rather... shady). Just my two cents......
