John is silent throughout most of the game as he callously kills each of his victims in creative and graphic ways. He prefers to remain unseen while performing these murders, though takes clear sadism in them, further shown by how he videotaped his murders. His resentment towards his victims is shown by the fact that he stabbed one of them 16 times. He only shows outward anger when writing bloody messages or faced with the detective and states that he is "wrath" or "justice".
