Bloodthirst

At a young age, Peri witnessed her mother's murder at the hands of one of her servants. Since then, she distrusted her servants and was willing to kill each of them off, wary that any of them could be the true murderer. Peri's penchant of killing people on a whim has persisted into adulthood.
