Personality and character
Linus is best described as rash, impulsive, and extremely loyal to his siblings and loved ones. He shows deep respect for Lloyd, and is so wrought with grief after his death that he loses the ability to reason, as he attempts to kill his step-sister, Nino, even when they had gotten along so easily before.
