Tartaglia describes himself as "kind of a bad guy", living for the thrill of a fight and causing chaos. Although he appears to relatively friendly on the surface, Tartaglia is a bloodthirsty warrior. The Abyss and his old master, Skirk, made him self-confident, solipsistic, and brash, thriving on the sensation of being alive. Tartaglia considers those who wish to become strong like him to be friends and takes pleasure in battling them. Behind his innocent, childlike exterior lies a dark side.
