His own personal ambitions found Evant Taelyan as the Grand Master, Dark Lord of the Sith. He is a well-known public face of the Dark Council with his prior roles on the council and is often seen in the presence of an unknown number of advisors and guards as he conducts his business. This reputation and standing serves him well in negotiations where he can leverage the Brotherhood's reputation, but is a constant threat to his life from enemies of the Iron Throne and can make many, who know his agenda, uncomfortable in his presence.

With a deep-rooted desire to succeed and be the best, Evant Taelyan has a fiercely competitive side to him that loves winning. This serves him well as he never holds back in efforts to reach whatever target or goal he has set for himself, seeking it out with intensity, determination, and effort. This obsessing with a winning outcome, however, leaves intense stress on his life, as he is constantly seeking his next victory and will do anything to attain it including underhanded tactics and tricks.

Evant Taelyan has a reputation to maintain and is constantly self-conscious about how he appears to others. Attempting to appear stately, strong, masculine and in control at all times often dismissing the fact that he enjoys the periodic sappy holo-drama or hug and has the same fear of failure or death as any other mortal. This reputation serves him well as a leader or in diplomatic dealings but makes it more difficult to connect or relate to others he has just met until he is comfortable enough to lower the facade.

Frequently employing blunt and candid remarks, Evant Taelyan has a self-confidence about his actions and words that are to the point and often insensitive. This helps him accomplish his goals much more quickly, and streamlines negotiations considerably. However, this means that he often wears his annoyances and frustrations on his sleeve, and when not called for has a resultant backlash and scolding from those around him.

Evant Taelyan has great confidence in his own abilities on the battlefield. A self-confidence that has served him well and finds him quick to make decisions and thrust himself into any combat situation quickly before others get a chance to react or formulate a plan. However, rushing too quickly has put him into more than one sticky situation he didn't properly assess before jumping in.

Evant Taelyan prides himself on his athletics in the battlefield, and his ability to quickly get his weapon where it needs to be for the right shot or striking blow on his target. Often found climbing different structures or obstacles on the battlefield for a better view. All this emphasis on agility and speed leaves him sometimes making combat decisions too hastily, passing windows of opportunity, that is if he even noticed he missed them.
