Faramir sees himself as the control subject in the science experiment called life. Often labeled as "boring" and "predictable", Faramir keeps his wild and experimental side reserved for pet projects. This boring lifestyle leads to him being considered anti-social and when he does join others, instead of relaxing he prefers to keep quiet and observe.

Faramir doesn't like to work in groups or teams and feels most comfortable on his own. Faramir sticks to himself, sets his own pace, and doesn't share feelings or emotions with others. While the Lone Wolf can get things done quietly and efficiently, he tends to be emotionally cut off and has problems relating to his comrades.

All who gain power are afraid to lose it, and Faramir is no exception. Some use their power for good, some for evil; Faramir, however, knows that these are just points of view. He is on a quest for greater power, and uses all his skills and abilities to ensure his supremacy, regardless of the consequences.

Faramir is extremely cocksure and headstrong. Possessing a keen wit and exceptional level of intelligence, Faramir will often use his superior intellect to humiliate lesser minds. Basically, he is kind of a jerk, and that can sometimes get Faramir in a bit of trouble.

Without the gift of the Force, Faramir has trained rigorously with a wide range of melee weaponry and technology to better handle opponents that are able to harness the mythical power. Faramir has been conditioned to fight against foes that are Force-sensitive and are able to compensate against fighting an adversary wielding something as deadly as a lightsaber. While this adaptive combat training makes him lethal in close quarters combat against any kind of threat, they are still at the mercy of a long ranged fighter, assailant or Force user that prefers to attack the mind instead of the body.

Faramir 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.
