Striker is an arrogant, prideful, violent, ruthless, and sadistic individual. He views himself as superior to most of his own kind, having no hesitation to mock and belittle those he views as being beneath him, both physically and mentally, as shown by his constant humiliation and torture of Moxxie. He holds a deep hatred of the nobility of Hell, deriding them as bluebloods who treat Imps as a lesser class. Because of this, Striker gleefully takes the opportunity to assassinate demons of a higher social standing to prove himself as superior, such as accepting the job to murder Stolas, and mocking him while conversing with Blitzo. His violent nature belies his sadism. When confronted by Moxxie after his discovery of Striker's blessing-tipped rifle, he chose to corner and attempt to slowly strangle Moxxie to death rather than dispatching him in a faster or less cruel manner.
"Well, howdy! Oh, lookie here! You must be the famous Mildred! Heard some good things about you from your folks, little lady." ―Striker, when meeting Millie "What're y'all doin' so far away from Imp City? Heh.

You never stood a chance." ―Striker talking down to Moxxie "I’d like to take this opportunity to sing a quick song I wrote just now, about me winning." ―Striker, before he sings his song about him winning the Pain Games "I'd kill y'all, but I feel like there's more leverage with your rodeo clown of a boss if I don't. Plus, you little things ain't worth the cleanup." ―Striker before locking Millie and Moxxie
To start an uprising against the Goetia
Likely lost all of his family to a goetia/royal. Not much is known about Striker's past, though it was hinted that he suffered a great loss or humiliation at the hands of demon royalty that led to him fostering a hatred towards all members of the royal hierarchy in Hell. At an unknown point in the past, Striker became an accomplished assassin, earning a notorious reputation and a body count "in the hundreds",[1] and would also get his hands on several angelic weapons capable of killing demonic royalty. According to himself, an imp mariachi-oriented vocal quartet began following him and singing a ballad they created for him, much to his annoyance where he repeatedly tells them to stop. Despite his arrogance, Striker is not entirely comfortable with every aspect of his appearance. His eyes are a particular insecurity. He might occasionally become uncomfortable when someone stares at them for too long. Striker is not particularly comfortable with emotional attachment because he understan
