Vorran Shadowfeather sees himself as the control subject in the science experiment called life. Often labeled as "boring" and "predictable", Vorran Shadowfeather keeps his wild and experimental side reserved for pet projects. This boring lifestyle leads to him being considered anti-social and when he does join others, instead of relaxing he prefers to keep quiet and observe.

Having been born inside a star-ship as opposed to planet-side, Vorran Shadowfeather has never had a particular world to call his home. He grew up in an environment that requires being of use in order to survive, and without the borders that breed patriotism. The allegiances of the galaxy mean little to him, only the strength of individual merit. He is most at peace when in space, and will take on any contract or mission that enables him to remain firmly seated in a cockpit.

This utter lack of affiliation often results in what can be construed as insubordination and disloyalty, putting him at odds with those that value such things.

Vorran Shadowfeather rarely acts without an alternate motive when it comes to lending aid or acting in a situation.

While his self-serving attitude comes as a boon, usually, to his survival and pocketbook, his relationships are often strained by his outright selfish attitude.

While generally laid back and more than happy to offer a quip of sarcasm, Vorran Shadowfeather's entire demeanor changes once combat begins. He becomes focused and quiet, with his smile replaced with a look of grim determination.

Vorran Shadowfeather seems to get his thrills, perhaps sadistic ones at that, from toying with his opponents. Some are content with simply striking down or injuring their opponent, but that is not enough for Vorran Shadowfeather. No, he wishes to see his enemy descend into madness or kneel before him as a blathering mess; or even better, as a fresh new servant with a muddled mind. The Puppeteer usually forsakes outright hurting and maiming his opponent and focuses on illusions, mind tricks, and other wicked means of destroying a person.

Even the most gifted of weapon masters understands the importance of physical fitness and disciplining the body with through martial arts training. Vorran Shadowfeather has trained vigorously in unarmed combat by fusing Teräs Käsi and Echani with other unconventional forms.
