Personality

Darth Prazutis is a considered by many to be one of the coldest, black hearted beings ever born. Many know him for his principal role in carrying out the worst genocides in modern galactic history going back almost eighty years. Those who were witness to these great tragedies have reported as both seeing him, and his chief role in their design. The visage that he exudes is one of a sadistic, apathetic, heavy-handed tyrant who seems incapable of empathy or remorse. But the reality is quite a complicated subject, and it reveals the many layers behind who he is.
There is no doubt that Darth Prazutis is a supremely authoritarian individual, who fervently believes in the supremacy of the Sith Order. This belief is so strong, so deeply rooted that it has greatly shaped him. Prazutis views himself as one of the rightful custodians of Sith culture and strives to preserve its traditions and ideologies at all costs. Prazutis demands absolute loyalty and strength from everyone around him, despising weakness and ineptitude and requiring utter devotion to the dark side of the Force. He views himself as the epitome of the might of the Sith, a true inheritor of the legacy of the Dark Lords of the Sith from ages past.
Deep beneath the surface of this giant is a ruthless, cunning, manipulative machiavellian who seems to be entirely unreadable at any given time. Even to those closest to him he often exudes such apathy at all times, it seems difficult to read exactly what he's thinking. This makes him a deeply unsettling, concerning presence even when compared with Darth Carnifex and other Sith. He is a true master of manipulation and deception who is extremely charismatic. In fact, his charisma is often characterized as one of his greatest weapons, his words characterized as hypnotizing, honey in some ears while poison to others. They twist and corrupt those who hear them drawing them deeper into his web. Prazutis views others especially non-Sith, non-Maenans, and those without great power, skill, or aptitude as completely expendable assets to be freely used. Although it has been shown in multiple instances that he has readily utilized other Sith as tools, freely manipulating them.
Despite this there is no doubt that Prazutis is gifted with what is considered as high intellectual potential, extraordinary cognitive abilities. These culminate in a near perfect recall or eidetic memory, as well as an unbelievible ability to rapidly learn. These have manifested in a brilliant strategic and admninistrative mind that easily outstrips even his counterpart Carnifex. Behind the scenes he is widely regarded as chiefly responsible for the success of the rise of House Zambrano, the creation of Malsheem, Foundation of the Kainate, and the success of the Eighth Sith Empire. Prazutis is a master of playing the long game, gifted with great patience and a supernatural ability to read people and situations. knowing when to play the long game to achieve his goals. He greatly values secrecy and utilizes every method at his disposal including the application of Sith alchemy, as well as sorcery to solidify his power. He firmly believes that true strength lies in an individual's continual evolution, their mastery of both the material and the mystical. He considers complacency as the greatest enemy and a bane to even the strongest.
While the outward view of Darth Prazutis is this emotionless, cold individual, there are depths of his personality that have been deeply rooted in the culture of Maena. Loyalty and care to those he considers his family, and his people. He cares deeply for those he considers family, as well as those he deems worthy of his protection and guidance. This is attributed to the vast length of time he spent on Maena that entirely shaped him into the man he is today. There is a unique separation of people between Maenans and Easterners. While some people such as close family can cross the divide between the two, he rarely cares for people he considers Easterners as he does for Maenans.
To a Maenan he is often loyalty even to the point of death itself, when he gives his word, he always keeps it, and he never forgets a debt. Easterners are rarely given such treatment and have been betrayed when their usefulness expires, or the situation suits his goals. There is a degree of inherent weakness in every Easterner that separates them from true Maenans. In contrast, Prazutis has never once betrayed anyone considered Maenan. It is possible to cross this divide through deep connection and individuals such as Darth Carnifex, Braith Achlys, Vesta Zambrano have been shown to have earned his loyalty. Prazutis has displayed a loyalty to his nephew Darth Carnifex so deep, even the death of someone close to him wasn't enough to sway his loyalty. The pair have been close for so long they developed an incredibly powerful Dyad in the Force.
While he possesses complete confidence in his own abilities, many consider his pride as one of his greatest weaknesses. Prazutis often borders on a supreme arrogance deeply rooted in his countless successes throughout many centuries of life. Due to the many times in his life, he'd been knocked so low, and even killed, as well as his power in the dark side have led to him considering himself as nearly untouchable. While confidence can be a strength on the battlefield and as a leader, inspiring others around him and turning him into a frighteningly formidable adversary, they can blind him the strengths of unconventional or non-traditional opponents, those he considers as little better than children, leaving openings to be exploited by those clever enough to see them.
