## Personality

Those that know Ahriman talk about the very image of a noble, with him being proud of his line and imposing. He despises commoners and peasants, considering them filth and won't even talk to them even if they talk to him. Also, he tends to reprimand nobles that he believes they bring shame to nobility. On that note, he dislikes Peter Stanford a lot, considering him a waste of noble blood due to his general personality and image being unfitting of a noble and because he associates himself with commoners and peasants.
