Delthea is confident without fail and has faith in her natural talents. She is easygoing, but lazy, and likes to show off in battle.<ref>{{cite|I'm glad I fight for you now and do what I'm good at. Feel free to lay on the compliments when you see me kickin' tail, yeah?|Delthea|Shadows of Valentia}}</ref> Delthea is blunt and dislikes keeping secrets, but is also easy to manipulate.<ref>{{cite|Things are what you might call "delicate" in our village. We're not supposed to talk about the whole "magical bloodline" thing. That's bullplop, though, right? I think it is. We've got all this incredible magic at our disposal, and we have to HIDE it? I wanna show off!|Delthea|Shadows of Valentia}}</ref> Her brother [[Luthier]] is concerned about how laid-back she is, thinking she should be more serious about developing her magical abilities; however, whenever he voices this concern, Delthea dismisses it. She hates being criticized, because she thinks she is better than everyone else and whoever criticizes her seeks to put her down.<ref>{{cite|'''Luthier:''' Would you please stop fooling about?! This is a battlefield! You've been acting far too brazen—you're going to get someone killed.<br>'''Delthea:''' Well, excuuuse me for taking some initiative around this joint! I go out and wipe the floor with the bad guys, and now I get a LECTURE?!<br>'''Luthier:''' I’m not criticizing you—but showing a bit of dignity would be nice. For you see, the thing about you is—<br>'''Delthea:''' Wooould yooouuu pleeeeease SHUUUUUUT UUUUUUP?! Nothing I do is EVER good enough for you! Just leave me alone, you big LOSER!|Delthea and [[Luthier]]|Shadows of Valentia}}</ref> In her opinion, her natural talent is a gift she should be allowed to flaunt, and nobody has the right to complain that she is superior to others.

Delthea is defined by her stubbornness and insistence on getting her way. She is childish in many ways, befitting her young age, and can be quite careless as well. Her confidence, honesty, immaturity, and magical potential combined could make her a danger to others, which is exploited by [[Tatarrah]] when he brainwashes her to fight against [[Alm]]’s party. Delthea does not like to admit it, but she is still inexperienced.
