Experience and learning mark Korroth as a sapientologist, a student of the myriad varieties of intelligent life in the galaxy, and especially the way the Force shapes their conflicts and tribulations. These studies have shaped his convictions about his own role as a Jedi and his place in this war-plagued galaxy. Korroth commits his strength to the light side in the hope that a future peace, no matter how distant, does exist for this galaxy. It is only by the inherent nature of the dark side that this peace has to be won through conflict.

These grandiose ideas of Korroth sweep majestically across civilisations and star systems, but they do little to reveal the drives of real, ordinary, impulsive individuals. In his mind, he tends to place people in their proper roles in society, and he might get a nasty surprise when one happens to step out of theirs.

Korroth values a serene and detached demeanour in all things. Desire is the father of passion, and passion is the enemy of clear thinking and the bringer of pain. The Pau’an knows this from personal experience—Utapau, Felucia, Antenora, Harakoa—all places and people that pulled a string of his heart, but are now severed from him.

He now fixes his mind on the one eternal, the Force and the totality of life that it represents. Its will is only grasped through tranquility, and this is the state that Korroth strives to achieve. However, he cannot deny his attachment to his Clan and allies; fear of losing them is one thing that could shake his composure.

A severe and rigorous disposition define Korroth's approach to most things. Unaccustomed to whimsy or frivolity, he places all due seriousness and focus in any task set before him, and he tends to expect the same of those working with him—jokes and japes are likely to earn a stern look of disapproval.

This dour demeanour makes him a bit of a wet blanket among his peers, and he is certainly not the soul of the party at social gatherings. If his diligence makes him look like an officious grouch Korroth either doesn't notice or doesn't care, because he feels genuine fulfilment from accomplishing the will of the Force. His mistake might be that he expects the same effect in other individuals, if only they followed his work ethic.

The Jedi believe in peace, but they are also peace keepers. While the Jedi seek to unite and harmonise life, the Sith strive to divide, unbalance and bring it into conflict, and Korroth believes they must be opposed. In any encounter with a Sith, Korroth will seek to impede, subdue and debilitate, whether in the short term or the long term. He will take a life in extremis, though not without hesitation.

This attitude of prejudice against the Sith means that Korroth will find it difficult to behave with anything but mistrust and enmity towards them, even outside of battle.

All life is bound as one by the Force. Korroth sees this in the vital connections that exist between all beings. When facing a single other individual, in healing or in combat, he will focus his attention on this stream of energy. The Force flows through the mind and body of himself and his counterpart and guides his actions, whether they be healing, Force amplification of his own corporeal energies or slowing those of his enemy.

This attitude entails an awareness of the harmony between the Force and the two beings facing each other. It follows that Korroth’s attention and actions towards the surroundings and any additional individuals are diminished in this state.

Peace is the way of the Jedi. However, Korroth does not lack for motivation in combat. The drive to protect life and aid his Clan in their opposition to the Sith is strong with him. He uses Vaapad to channel this stimulus into the moment of the fight, as an impetus towards victory. When facing a Sith, this drive to prevail becomes only more intense.

Vaapad is all about controlling and guiding one’s ferocity. When fighting, Korroth is constantly aware that one false step could push him into the destructive passions of the dark side.
