At first glance, Hades appears to be a mischievous trickster. When engaged in conversation, Hades often acts carefree and speaks in a playfully dull tone that is filled with sarcasm and cruelty. Even in the middle of a battle, Hades is shown to be very calm and level-headed, rarely ever getting angry. Hades also has a bit of showmanship, always boisterous and bombastic. Hades is also shown to have a genuine sense of humor and enjoys telling jokes and making puns at even the most odd or inappropriate of times.

Hades is also very flirtatious and even seems to view himself as a ladies man, as he flirts with nearly every female character in the game, mentions wanting to use the Lightning Chariot to attract women, and even claims all the women in the world will weep for his destroyed body as mentioned in the post-credits easter egg.

However, it all serves as a mask to hide his true malevolent personality. At his core, Hades is a complete sociopath and a being of pure evil whose arrogance and power makes him brush off any matter as nothing important, often viewing others as beneath him. He has no regard for life and views souls simply as mindless play things for him to amuse himself with and shows little to no sympathy for them or anything else. He treats souls as his puppets and manipulates their memories, hearts and forms to suit his own needs, not caring at all about their existence, even eating them for fun despite how much damage this causes to the balance. Hades's view on the cycle of life is even more skewed and twisted, seeing no difference between consuming a soul and their rebirth.
However, it all serves as a mask to hide his true malevolent personality. At his core, Hades is a complete sociopath and a being of pure evil who revels in death and destruction. Hades is considerably arrogant and nonchalantly brushes off any matter as nothing important, often viewing others as beneath him. He has no regard for life and views souls simply as mindless play things for him to amuse himself with and shows little to no sympathy for them or anything else. He treats souls as his puppets and manipulates their memories, hearts and forms to suit his own needs, not caring at all about their existence, even eating them for fun despite how much damage this causes to the balance. Hades's view on the cycle of life is even more skewed and twisted, seeing no difference between consuming a soul and their rebirth.  


Hades also shows himself to be a cunning and manipulative strategist, knowing exactly how to trick others into doing his bidding. He revived Medusa to distract Pit and Palutena and when she is defeated, Hades managed to manipulate the humans into starting a war with each other over a nonexistent Wish Seed, even tricking Pit into slaying the Phoenix to kickstart the war.

Hades also loves to play mind games with his opponents, teasing them, annoying them, and finding any way to get under their skin. He frequently insults and belittles other characters. Pit in particular seems to be his favorite target as he goes out of his way to enrage him, usually by bringing up his inability to fly. During the Aurum Arc, he frequently sends Mimicuties in Pit's path to impede his progress and in Chapter 20, he mockingly presents the very real possibility that the angel may have to kill the possessed Palutena. The only one immune to Hades's mind games is Dark Pit, who mostly ignores him.

Despite all his malicious tendencias, however, he does at the least comes to view Pit as a worthy opponent. He also held no grudge against Pit after the later killed him and destroyed his body, and even complimented his abilities, albeit still throwing a few nasty remarks in his direction.
