Red also wears Crocs™ and a thong that can be seen on occasion. When younger, Red would only wear two-toed sandals, which could always be seen. Red initially presents themself as a bold and brave captain, being proud of their title, confident in their abilities and authority above others, as well as appearing more composed, cheerful and friendly on the surface. However, as the series progresses, and with each crewmember dying after another, Red is an arrogant, and wildly incompetent captain, heavily relying on the MIRA handbook, as well as their status as captain. Red is also deeply insecure and fearful after discovering an Alien Impostor was on their ship killing off each crewmember. Throughout the series, Red prioritized their reputation and status as captain of the Skeld. This is shown when Red covers up White's death from the crew, claiming their cause of death to be a natural cause. Even after admitting to have no idea what to do as captain, they still maintained authority over others. Red had a "by the book" attitude, appearing as "MIRA's bootlicker" and always following the system, as shown when they had to declare a vote in order to eject Orange, despite the latter having already revealed themselves to be an Impostor when killing Lime as well as them already being thrown into the trash chute, and when Yellow received the majority amount of votes to be ejected despite the latter, Purple and Brown voting against it. Red was also more focused on completing their tasks in order to keep the Skeld from falling apart, rather than further investigating the cause of each crewmember's deaths. Despite their self-preservation towards their status as captain, as well as blindly following MIRA's system that got their own crew killed, Red genuinely cared for their crew's comfort and safety, as shown when they had hidden the very fact that Aliens were real and like to kill in order to prevent panic and paranoia among the crew (which had obviously backfired). Although Red isn't above their crew's "antics", as well as not being the brightest, they do show genuine leadership and can give orders towards their crew, as shown when they ordered their crew into fix the lights as well as regaining the oxygen levels. They can even be genuinely intelligent and brave at times. This is shown when they deliberately put on a friendly and well-composed act towards Orange, after the latter had killed Lime in front of them, in order keep them at bay and prevent them from causing any problems or more death amongst the crew, something that Purple acknowledged afterwards. In the climax of the series, Red eventually acknowledges their own past and present mistakes when it came down to voting off Purple or Green, even admitting that they were wrong to throw Purple under the bus before, and after discovering that MIRA was indeed aware of the ORE+ containing parasitic eggs, and intentionally strapping Red and their crew into a "murder machine", Red ultimately rejects MIRA and its corrupt system.
