Having a strong build, Juda Graves is an enigma hidden behind a set of armor. In peeling away those layers, his masculine appearance is fully realized as his years of experience comes through in the form of wrinkling to his angular face, particularly around the eye and brow as the near constant furrowing has defined his features. Black hair falls to the top of his shoulders in a tangled mess of light curls and waves and a medium length beard frames his rigid jawline. His eyes are a remarkable blue color passed on to him from his lineage and are sharp and vivid when admired against his pale skin. His body is chiseled for a man of his age and marked with intricate tattoos plucked from Mandalorian culture. Most notable is the tattoo of his sigil on his left pectoral, which is a Vornskr in a tribal pattern.
Juda Graves does not charge a high price because he has to pay for a life of luxury; he charges a high price because he knows that he is the best in the game and worth the credits. Those who do not know Juda Graves will feel he is gouging them, but those who have seen him in action know that he always delivers. This bravado follows Juda Graves around and builds on the success of completed jobs and can be off-putting to other Mercenaries that will try and lash back by pointing out his failures.
Juda Graves 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 Juda Graves downright unbearable or overly morbid. At the same time, his cynicism can be useful for seeing through the optimistic altruism of those he encounters.
People tend to reverently follow Juda Graves’s lead and look up to him in difficult situations. Whether through inspirational behavior, fear and manipulation, or belief and hope for a better future, they think that Juda Graves genuinely believes what he does. This is all a clever facade, however, as Juda Graves is not always as upstanding and respectable as his followers believe. He is no idol, but an opportunist who knows how to manipulate a crowd into bettering his own machinations.
Disgusted by the whoring of his people. Juda Graves is an ambitious warlord that desires the restoration of Mandalorian conquest and tradition. A high-ranking member of Clan Vizsla, he is fueled by this desire even as his more modern Mandalorian brothers and sisters recoil from the notion. Stirring unrest and the possibility of sparking a civil war, his drive and tenacious mentality will see his Clan rise to the upper-echelon of Mandalorian society or he will die trying.
Where most err on the side of caution in a confrontation, Juda Graves prefers to charge in head-first. While others may skirt a battlefield or keep their careful distance, Juda Graves rushes in with devastating attacks with seemingly no regard for safety, relying upon instinct and possibly armor to protect him from dismemberment and death during his all-out attacks. Juda Graves is a force to be feared on the battlefield, leaving a trail of death and destruction. However, Juda Graves's blood-hungry ways put him in far more danger than the normal combatant, often resulting in needless injury and suffering, trading safety for pure offensive ability.
Through a mixture of cocksure courage and arrogant swagger, Juda Graves will not back down from a challenge when called out, even if the wiser path is to walk away or let it go. Juda Graves's personality does tend to rub a lot of people the wrong way, which generally puts him into situations that escalate quickly to violence. While he may not be the one to always start a fight, he will always see it through to it’s conclusion. Some have tried to play a challenge off as idle banter, but when Juda Graves initiates or accepts a challenge, he does not hold back.
