This incarnation of [[the Master]] was suave and debonair with a sardonic sense of humour. A haughty psychopath, he regarded most beings as his inferiors but had a mutual respect for the Doctor as a worthy opponent and (almost) his intellectual equal. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Sea Devils]]'')

Hatred is the dominant emotion driving him on. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin]]'', ''[[The Keeper of Traken]]'')
