In contrast to his previous incarnation, the "Tzun" Master was calmer, less emotional and flustered, with a proud bearing and an inscrutable demeanour, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier (novel)|First Frontier]]'') though he would resort to a panicked state upon confronting the unexpected. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings (novel)|Happy Endings]]'') Highly manipulative, the Master would maintain control of a situation, while making others around him think he was not, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier (novel)|First Frontier]]'') though would lose this advantage when he knew he was overpowered, such as when at [[Bernice Summerfield]] and [[Jason Kane]]'s wedding.

Unlike his immediate predecessor, the "Tzun" Master was aware that his theatrical plotting could be his undoing, but found amusement in the irony rather than bitterness.

He looked down at humanity, treating them like children, believed the concept of regeneration to be beyond them. However, he showed some respect towards [[Ace]], who had killed his previous incarnation, believing she would make a good enforcer and admiring her willpower.

While he | While he agreed with the [[Ice Lord]] [[Savaar]] that he lacked a degree of honour, the Master would only resort to harming others if he found an advantage in the act, opting to perform with "a considerable degree of leniency" when sabotaging Bernice and Jason's wedding until he was forced to take Bernice hostage at gunpoint during the ceremony.

The "Tzun" Master was just as adept at winding the Doctor up as his predecessor was, claiming that the [[Seventh Doctor]]'s pacifism was pure hypocrisy, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier (novel)|First Frontier]]'') and taking delight in his apparent inability to protect his friends from [[Bloom (Happy Endings)|Bloom]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings (novel)|Happy Endings]]'') However, he did hold the Doctor in some regard, believing the Tzun incapable of overpowering him on their own, and insisting he was a threat to be eliminated, though he felt bittersweet about it, admitting to himself that the Doctor was an inspiring adversary, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier (novel)|First Frontier]]'') though reacted with horror when four variants of the Seventh Doctor confronted him at once. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Happy Endings (novel)|Happy Endings]]'') Nonetheless, the Master pointed out that the Doctor preferred to kill and destroy from a distance, such as with the [[Sea Devil]]s. To prove this point, the Master handed the Doctor a blaster and baited him to shoot him at close range, which the Doctor refused to do.
