Varia thinks highly of herself in the sense that she is incredibly talented. She is aware of her skills and believes others are nowhere near her level. She loves compliments (though does not know how to take them and acts as if she doesn’t) but is often very show-y with her moves, and communicates on the field with her teammates a lot, only because she wants to win. While she is incredibly talented, she can make simple mistakes by being lost in thought or being very brash. She ranks very high, averaging 12 kills average per turf war round. Any death she has, she will blame on a teammate.

Her appearance, as she has grown older, has shifted to be more off-putish. Varia, while desiring a connection, doesn't want to go through the cycle of people abandoning her again. Varia has grown so accustomed to being alone, she believes she is better off alone than with anyone at all. Visually, she attempted to make herself look unapproachable, standoffish, and cool, hoping that people do talk about her.

She is often annoyed by other teammates who die frequently, try to talk to her, and give her too many compliments, thinking it is an attempt to become friends. Varia does not like being touched, even in a friendly way. She will express discomfort with a scowl or an ugly remark, and make sure the person knows to never touch her again. She hates other people who put themselves on a pedestal or act as if everyone is their friend.

Despite Varia's harsh appearance, she would never physically harm someone with evil intent. Even provoked or hit at, she fears her own strength and the damage she can do, and would most likely refuse to lay a hand on another person. In small scenarios, like protecting Melody, she would throw a hit.
