## Personality

Double-Decker is narcistic and extremely prideful in her status as a gladiator, always eager to portray herself as a tough gal. Double-Decker is crude and crass when she's in a team, confidently intimidating and distracting her opponents so she can get a reaction from them and eventually defeat them in a fair fight. When she's at full health, she constantly praises herself and tries to belittle her teammates in an attempt to reaffirm a sense of superiority over them. When she encounters someone who isn't afraid of her, she often tries to psyche them out and relies on cheap shots to win.

Double-Decker has an extremely fragile ego, often reacting with extreme anger when people dismiss her achievements or compare her to somebody else. When her health is low, her tone of voice changes and sounds as if she's on the verge of crying as she calls herself a failure for getting hurt. In the game itself, she speaks fearfully of D.Va while she's in the MEKA but quickly gathers her confidence once D.VA is ejected from it. If Decker is last one of her team to be still alive, she immediately sounds afraid as she starts desperately pleading to The Iris for her life.

Beneath Double-Decker's pride, she's a cowardly, deceitful weakling. Her only concerns in life are self-preservation and to be the best in Junkertown. When she believes her opponents are at her mercy, she's quick to gloat and twist the knife, An interaction with the Queen of Junkertown reveals that almost all of the junkers refuse to work with her because Decker is known to make her allies do all the dirty work while stands aside to watch the fight. At one point using a junker as a human shield when an omnic tried to fight back against a squad of Junkers.

During a siege on an omnic shelter, Decker sacrificed all 3 of her soldiers to save herself. The omnics, knowing they were severely outmatched, set up a trap that would blow up the shelter with the soldiers inside once they left the building. However, once the entire squad entered the shelter, Decker immediately turned around to sneak out, accidentally setting off the explosive and killing both the omnics and her soldiers. When she saw that one miracously survived the trap but was on the verge of death, Decker barely reacted to her condition and ran back to Junkertown.

Under the effects of hogdrogen, Double-Decker becomes quick to anger and irritable as she tries to get her next fix, and she's shown to have insatiable cravings for the drugs as openly contemplates trying to steal some Roadhog. She becomes thrill-seeking and takes excessive risks, as shown by her erratic fighting style in the arena and this is what establishes her primary flaw, poor impulse control. Double-Decker has problems following the plans made by The Queen and relies on shortcuts to finish jobs as quickly as possible, not realising or acknowledging how this could effect The Queen's long-term plans or thinking how Decker's actions can or will effect others.

It's implied multiple times that her narcissism and bloodthirsty nature is simply a front and a coping mechanism for some deep rooted self-esteeem issues and a personal sense of inadequacy. When confronted by Overwatch and when she's backed into a corner by larger and stronger characters, she quickly lapses into spineless begging and tries to exploit their pity by painting herself as a victim of Junkertown's depravity and lawlessness. Double-Decker refuses to take any responsibility for dealing with Junkertown and refuses to accept any blame and accountability for what she does in the arena.
