Be it during a fight or life in general, moral compass means little to Noir Khan. If you don’t want a person harmed, you had better specify. General terms mean nothing to him as Noir Khan only deals in specifics. If the rules of a duel say you can’t shoot before the count of three? A grenade over the shoulder is fair game, then. Tell Noir Khan to stop someone at all costs, well, you better not be concerned if they’re brought back dead or alive.

Noir Khan can be very protective, and when any of his friends are being bullied or threatened, he will step in to defend them. This can get Noir Khan in trouble when he refuses to back down during these exchanges, and sometimes has trouble discerning between friendly teasing and intentional insults. However, because of this fierce loyalty, his friends know that no matter what, Noir Khan will be there for them.

Noir Khan considers his work to be the most important aspect of his life. This borderline obsession with the "job" leaves little room for any kind of personal or social life, making it difficult for Noir Khan to relax and enjoy spending time with others. He excels in activities that relate to their work, but the idea of work-life balance is an altogether abstract concept.

Noir Khan has often struggled with short term memory loss. In order to remind himself of important details, he developed the habit of repeating his thoughts out loud. In a twist of fate, he has maintained this habit but has forgotten about it.

Without the gift of the Force, Noir Khan has trained rigorously with a wide range of melee weaponry and technology to better handle opponents that are able to harness the mythical power. Noir Khan has been conditioned to fight against foes that are Force-sensitive and are able to compensate against fighting an adversary wielding something as deadly as a lightsaber. While this adaptive combat training makes him lethal in close quarters combat against any kind of threat, they are still at the mercy of a long ranged fighter, assailant or Force user that prefers to attack the mind instead of the body.

Even the most gifted of weapon masters understands the importance of physical fitness and disciplining the body with thorough martial arts training. Noir Khan has trained vigorously in unarmed combat by fusing Teräs Käsi and Echani with other unconventional forms. While this martial focus helps bolster his prowess in close-quarters combat, Noir Khan is still limited in scope when facing down a less direct or ranged threat.
