Pretty sure there was something about General Lagune being Gaston.

Adam is the Beast, especially considering Monty specifically made Adam's emblem be a wilting rose. Monty himself outright stated that Adam's rose is wilting. When he explained the difference between Ruby's and Adam's rose emblems, he called Ruby's "scatter" and Adam's "wilt".

I'm pretty sure that's all just Arryn's perspective on it, rather than actual canon fact.

Basically, Adam is a reverse Beast:


 * Belle met Beast while he was a beast. He held her captive for a while and then let her go. She was able to redeem him and saw him become a man again.


 * Blake met Adam while he was still a man. He let her leave initially but now refuses to let go. Blake is unable to redeem him, and over time, she saw him become a beast.
