Rayman also holds a deep-seated amount of self-hatred due to his intense hatred towards his father back in his teenagehood, and also due to him wanting to live a life that's a falsehood rather than coming to the conclusion that his troubling mistakes has garnished a great deal of misfortune upon himself, his family, and old friends and associates of his. The self-hatred gives him an exceptionally short temper that he doesn't know how to control, which fills him with rage and causes him to not think at times.
