An observer has described her as having a 'toxic' personality, but it could be argued that she constantly chafes against the geas placed on her by her mysterious Master, which has forced her to undertake the perilous journey to the Wartorn Cluster from the Core.

It is a dark code, however, as it prompted her to provide a quick death to an ally who was being savaged by a vampire.
