Personality: Before Sephiroth’s mind fractured into insanity he was actually a relatively caring individual though he did not always outwardly show it. He held a bit of a reputation for being stoic and cold, but in reality he just did not fit in very well with other people. Sephiroth always felt as though he were different. That he stood off to the side from most. He did have friends, but those were few. The ones who managed to get close to him he held in high regard even to the point of outright refusing to go on a mission to hunt them down.
For the most part he respects intelligence or otherwise anyone who can match him in some way. While he himself can be arrogant that is mostly due to his overbearing sense of confidence. He’s a calm, collected individual who rarely falls to frustration and otherwise seemingly cannot be annoyed. This is not completely true, but he’s the type of person who manages to keep themselves under control and does not show much to the outside world. Which is what originally earned him his reputation. What others don’t see is that he actually has a very dry sense of humor, can smile, and does occasionally enjoy the company of others.
Now after he learns the truth surrounding his birth, the experiments involved in his creation, everything changes. Gone is the calm and caring individual only to be replaced with one filled with hate and vengeance. He despises humanity after this point wishing to destroy them all. The arrogance and sense of superiority people thought he held in the past comes to full fruition as he tosses aside any connection he felt to humans -- something he does not really consider himself any longer. Scientists used DNA from an alien creature they called Jenova in his creation, the only name he was ever given when growing up. The person he believes is his mother (when in fact he does have a human mother he does not know about). She is the only one she considers of any worth despite being an ancient long-dead corpse by this point.
When he first learned of the experiments he was actually horrified at the idea that he might not be human, but the more he read about it, the more he learned -- he leaned into the idea and fully accepted it as something he should be. With that he developed a god complex and felt that he was above everyone else. He’s vastly superior to everyone else and should rule high above them all. Like Jenova he feels he’s some sort of god-like being destined to rule the planet. No one can stand against him. No one can defeat him. Therefore he should be able to reshape things as he wishes.
One person does manage to best him though (Cloud), he manages to do so three different times, and as a result Sephiroth develops a complete and utter obsession with the man. He wants nothing more to break, torment, and otherwise terrorize him -- though at the same time he also makes Cloud the very center of his existence to a point where he actually relies on the other’s memories to keep himself going. This gives him something of tunnel vision later where he cares very little for those around him except for Cloud to a point where nothing else seems to matter. Humanity started out as the object of his hate and then it evolved into orbiting around one singular person.
Now despite all of this, he does still retain his calm and collected demeanor. He still cannot be easily (outwardly) angered, frustrated or otherwise annoyed. The air of arrogance and superiority to others never seems to leave though.
