Ryker doesn't like to work in groups or teams and feels most comfortable on his own. Ryker sticks to himself, sets his own pace, and doesn't share feelings or emotions with others. While the Lone Wolf can get things done quietly and efficiently, he tends to be emotionally cut off and has problems relating to his comrades.

When Ryker does things, he makes sure everything is done correctly, no matter how long it takes. This means there are frequent delays in Ryker's work, but it's usually done right, at least.

Ryker likes to engage in detailed discussions and think through situations carefully, often collaborating with others to seek their opinions before deciding on the best course of action. While this often ensures Ryker is more fair and well-respected amongst his peers, sometimes others do not have time to discuss this in a committee.

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

Through careful study and dedication to isolated martial-combat, Ryker has turned the act of dueling into an art form. A keen eye and attention to detail allows him the ability to learn their opponent's idiosyncrasies while fighting. Ryker then uses his own skills to capitalize on the opponent's weakness. Because of this calculated approach to isolated duels, Ryker has a harder time taking on multiple opponents at once at higher skill levels.

When it comes to a fight, some like to posture, some like to act tough, some like to dance around and go through all sorts of fancy footwork. Ryker? Ryker doesn't bother with exotic battle stances, intricate maneuvers, or super-secret tactics. Ryker, when cornered into a fight, prefers the ancient technique of a good kick to the nuts. And if that won't work, either because the enemy is a woman or has balls of steel, Ryker isn't beyond pulling a few more cheap tricks out of the bag. Granted, Ryker won't be winning any medals for nobility or any prestige for a unique fighting style or a superb maneuver, but Ryker will still be winning, the best and most dirty way he knows how.
