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

Nitram's life is filled with training and learning for all sorts of situations, from the mind-numbingly normal to the utterly bizarre. As such, Nitram has developed into a rather resourceful individual. This has made Nitram a mix of academic and scholar, always with something to offer to any discussion. However, knowledge and training does not always translate well to the tense environment of the battlefield, and no amount of textbooks can prepare one for reality...

Despite his line of work, Nitram still sees himself as a refined gentleman and will often put on a show of being haughty and arrogant to those he does not know. Nitram only lets the mask slip to show his more laid back nature to those he trusts. To those he dislikes, he will actually become even more insufferable as taunts and quips without any regard for who or what he might be offending.

Nitram has a tendency to be secretive and keeps to himself, relying on deception to conceal his motives and intentions. He is a schemer, and plots and plans against others carefully. When dealing with a confrontation, he will try and bluff his way out of trouble, or overcome obstacles with deliberate, covert actions.

Nitram 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 Nitram. 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.

Sometimes the only way to prepare for the worst is to always expect it. Nitram takes this philosophy one step further by never leaving home without accounting for every possible scenario he might expect to encounter. Nitram tends to always have the right tool or item for a situation and has a habit of quietly and almost smugly presenting solutions before anyone even recognizes there is a problem. This foresight is far from infallible, however, and he often finds himself at a loss in situations that go beyond what he could have imagined. While incredibly practical and often a life-saver in a pinch, his perpetually pessimistic outlook on daily life can be a bit draining on more optimistic-inclined companions.
