Someone in Sa Ool’s past was killed and he has vowed to avenge their death. Should the object of his vengeance be discovered, he is likely to to do whatever he can to exact revenge, no matter the cost.

Through a combination of preparing, studying, and analyzing, Sa Ool creates detailed battle plans and tries to think two steps ahead of the enemy. At times, however, this can lead to Sa Ool creating complicated schemes that can baffle less intelligent subordinates.

Sa Ool prefers to push the rules to the absolute limit. While he is unlikely to actually break rules or disobey orders, he toes the line between what is allowed and what isn't at every opportunity.

Sa learned a particularly painful lesson in a past fight about how Humans are not to be trusted. While some Humans have gained acceptance from the Kel Dor, he is extremely leery of any who have not clearly shown themselves to be on Sa’s side. Sa is prone to attacking any Human who is affiliated with an enemy faction or that has attacked Sa in the past. While this prejudice against the galaxy’s most populous species causes the Kel Dor issues, his healthy skepticism has prevented him from being hoodwinked by more than one Human bad actor.

Through careful study and dedication to isolated martial-combat, Sa Ool 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. Sa Ool then uses his own skills to capitalize on the opponent's weakness. Because of this calculated approach to isolated duels, Sa Ool has a harder time taking on multiple opponents at once at higher skill levels.

Sa Ool wears out his opponents through use of the Force, agility, and evasion. Once he has sufficiently tired his foes through the Force, physical, or mental assault, he quickly tries to find a means of cleanly and swiftly dispatching them - usually resulting in a somewhat risky all-or-nothing attempt at a deathblow.
