Troutrooper plays a different game than most. His ways may seem quirky, idiosyncratic, and sometimes even counterproductive to those around him, but he always completes his assigned tasks. He seems to always be one step ahead of his enemies, finding exploitable holes and flaws where none appear to others. In studying his methods, one gets the feeling there's something else going on with him, that no matter what he does, his actions are directed toward a different end game than everyone else's. What that end is, only Troutrooper knows.

Troutrooper rarely acts without an alternate motive when it comes to lending aid or acting in a situation. Be it greed, power, or something else, almost undoubtedly Troutrooper is after something more than what he says - though sometimes Troutrooper is even blunt enough to admit to it. While his self-serving attitude comes as a boon, usually, to his survival and pocketbook, his relationships are often strained by his outright selfish attitude.

Troutrooper has an uncanny knack for identifying traps and alerting others to them. Now, if only he could consistently do it BEFORE the trap goes off...

Troutrooper seems to get his thrills, perhaps sadistic ones at that, from toying with his opponents. Some are content with simply striking down or injuring their opponent, but that is not enough for Troutrooper. No, he wishes to see his enemy descend into madness or kneel before him as a blathering mess; or even better, as a fresh new servant with a muddled mind. The Puppeteer usually forsakes outright hurting and maiming his opponent and focuses on illusions, mind tricks, and other wicked means of destroying a person.
