## Personality

Liquid Snake was best described as an uncompromising, obnoxious, vengeful, arrogant, and extroverted person with a lack of compassion and loyalty to his allies, only seeing them as expendable pawns at best. This contrasted his brother Solid Snake who was calm, collected, and much kinder and loyal to his friends in spite of his bonds with them repeatedly being put to the test. He was incredibly resentful and bitter towards Big Boss, believing he had been knowingly chosen by the man to be his "inferior" clone, whereas his brother Solid Snake was endowed with "superior" genes. His resentments were so immense that it overpowered both Skull Face and Volgin's control over Tretij Rebenok aka. Psycho Mantis (both of whom did so due to their mutual hatred of Big Boss) where it rendered Skull Face extremely incredulous to the point of losing his composure. Liquid can react violently at the mere mention of the subject of fathers or parents, and even attacked Venom Snake for simply attempting to be friendly towards him. In addition, he bore hatred towards the Patriots as he had hunted them down for some time, and vowed to deal with them in such a gruesome and unpleasant manner enough to "cause even the reaper's stomach to turn." Despite his nature, Liquid was shown to be merciful and possess some skewed sense of pride and honor by letting Snake live to fight him unbound and unarmed in a one-on-one duel as well as sparing Meryl when Ocelot offered to kill her. Owing to his arrogance however, he did so partly so he could use her as a pawn against Snake. He was also shown to be manipulative, using the power of persuasion to get what he wanted. He even imitated others, but had trouble maintaining the disguise when excited.

Even as a child, he already possessed psychopathic behavior stemmed from learning about his heritage, which was exacerbated by his handlers' mistreatments of him prior to his escape in Africa. This even disturbed Miller who described him as having an "attitude problem". He despised adult authority and hated being treated as a kid, as when Venom Snake patted him on the back in a friendly manner, Liquid almost immediately tried to kill him by taking his knife, only to have his right arm dislocated, which Snake immediately put back after lecturing him about respect and loyalty. He was also shown to have a lot of self-loathing to the extent of being suicidal in his younger years, as evidenced by his comment about freeing himself from his cursed heritage when about to fight Venom Snake, his lamentation about his fate being written into his genes, as well as his deeply considering suicide until he was convinced otherwise. He ultimately decided to prove himself superior, breaking free from what his genes had determined and was even more than happy to tarnish Big Boss' name. He also largely believed for the same reasons that he couldn't become anything other than a soldier, and wouldn't have the right to even possess a real name, reacting angrily at one point when Snake claimed that he did have a name other than his codename. His loathing of his real name had been there since his youth, as he reacted violently when one of his fellow soldiers addressed him as such. Ironically, his brother Snake managed to prove what he wanted to prove and never realized that he already had superior genes all along until his demise.
