Ryuu Suoh maintains an ascetic style of living, not owning many possessions and not seeking out anything to fulfill his desires. He maintains his physique by practicing martial arts and his mind via meditation. He carries a general indifference to things outside of his control. Despite this, or because of this, he maintains a strong sense of honor, and tries to act in a way that wouldn’t dishonor himself. This outlook at life, and general lifestyle has made interpersonal skills nearly non-existent.

Ryuu Suoh has a sick sense of humor, viewing the world through dark colored glass. He has a biting sense of black humor, often laughing at things that most people would find reprehensible or down right soul crushing. As a result, those that are not used to his brand of humor often find Ryuu Suoh downright unbearable or overly morbid. At the same time, his cynicism can be useful for seeing through the optimistic altruism of those he encounters.

Ryuu Suoh has a strong sense of honor and goes out of his way to act in a way that, to him, would maintain that honor. He has a moral code--keeping to his word, never surrendering willfully in combat, not harming those he deems “innocent” and respecting his family--and uses that to guide his actions, choosing to stick to his beliefs even at the detriment of himself. If he were to ever break the code, and thus lose his honor, he would go to any means to atone for it, even if that meant he had to die. Ryuu Suoh actively looks down upon people who he considers to be honorless, thinking them to be lesser. This outlook has caused him no small means of strife throughout his life.

Ryuu Suoh has a military background, and draws upon his experience to tackle the obstacles in his life. This makes him decisive, efficient, and fearless; provides him with a strong sense of duty and strength; which tends to influence his ability to fight and lead. However, a rigid mind is less compassionate towards individuals and less imaginative, and Ryuu Suoh sometimes risks appearing callous, relatable, or incapable of compromising.

When Ryuu Suoh enters combat he silences his thoughts and just focuses on the fight, letting the instincts honed from years of training and actual combat take over. In this state he accepts that at some point during the fight he can either get injured, or just die. The downside to this however, is that once achieved it's hard for him to leave this state until his body is physically exhausted or his opponent is dead, mercy is not an option.

Ryuu Suoh has spent the greater part of his life honing his body to be a weapon, forsaking the convenience of blasters and slugthrowers. They try to engage in CQC/melee combat as much as possible, leveraging their honed body and resolve to great effectiveness. The downside of this mindset leaves them with limited options in ranged combat, mainly whatever throwing weapons they can carry.
