One to lead rather than follow, Halabrev can come off as bossy or abrasive at times. He knows what he wants, has an idea of how to get it, and will pursue his goals to completion. He doesn't like to take "no" for an answer, either, but will if he absolutely must. In this way he can seem selfish, something he doesn't exactly see a problem with. Having grown up in a harsh environment, one of his common sayings is "If I don't care about me first, who will?"
That said, he does care about others, too, and is a stalwart ally to any who have earned his friendship and loyalty.
