* GoodOldWays: He possesses a strong appreciation for Sunfire Elf customs and traditions. For example, he prefers to greet his sister with ''"Suns first"'', an archaic Sunfire version of "good morning." This traditionalist mindset sadly results in conflict between him and his more forward thinking sister, as the loss of Lux Aurea has made him overprotective of their culture, to the point he can't stomach any compromise or perceived disrespect to their customs.
* ItsAllAboutMe: He shows signs of this as he feels that he would make a better ruler than his sister, he only shows pride for the Sunfire tradtions when they benefit him and any tragedy that befalls him personally is automatically more important than what's happened to others.
