General Charles Cornwallis isn't as violent and sadistic as Colonel William Tavington, he still has a disdainful side. He is very arrogant, and often brags whenever he wins a battle. He can often be very condescending, especially in the way he talks about Colonel Tavington behind his back, calling him "inept", albeit he deserves it. He also has exceptional military expertise, training, and experience. However, Cornwallis does have a more sympathetic side.
