*The Dread Duckies are deceptive and mischievous, much like in their previous lives. They appear to enjoy manipulating and taunting their prey, relishing in fooling and surprising their targets when they reveal their true nature, then mocking them with quacks and a dance upon stunning their quarry, which they would eventually kill with sadistic fervor. As is expected of predators, Dread Duckies are intelligent and coordinated, dispersing themselves throughout the sewer to ambush Doug and working together to block the sewer entrances when he is chased by the Doom Ducky, which is likely their leader. These traits intensify in their "Nightmare" form, where they become even more persistent and eager to kill Doug. As with their immediate superior, the Dread Duckies are unwaveringly loyal to their demonic overlord and creator, Malak (which they humorously refer to as "bossman" in an official video about Makeship's Dread Ducky plush).[2]

The Dread Duckies exhibit a tendency towards laziness in their pursuit of Doug, often refraining from attacking unless he draws near. They consistently chase him only when instructed by higher entities like Malak and Doom Ducky. Nevertheless, whenever they spot Doug, they seize the chance to end him, displaying some strategic thinking by obstructing certain pathways later on. The relations between Dread Duckies and Malak's servants from other nightmare realms is not clear. However, a few of them were seen inside the carnival cages of Crazy Carnevil, making it possible that they either trust the Clown Gremlins as peers, or despise them as unjust handlers* "Quack! Quack!"
