Personality: When people meet Alhaitham for the first time, they have the immediate impression that he's an arrogant genius that gives off know-it-all energy. However, they couldn't be any further away from his actual personality. Alhaitham is indeed an intelligent individual, often seen reading through various books that would be too difficult for most to read. Instead of how people view him as arrogant and being a know-it-all, he is actually just blunt and answers people's questions in an unbiased way. In truth, he doesn't really care about the specific details and motivations coming from other people, and vice versa with how he doesn't care about how people perceive him. Despite holding the position of the Akademiya's scribe, Alhaitham never sought for high positions of power and authority, because he hates how such titles overcomplicate things as well as having more unnecessary work that he doesn't want to do. He seeks a balance between having a leisurely life and doing just enough work (or pretending that he's doing work) to make an excuse to not interact with people. The ultimate reason why Alhaitham goes through all of this to get time to himself, is simply because it's easier for him to think and go about his life without any excess noise that would otherwise make him lose his focus. He understands that people can mistake his intense focus on his thoughts to be him outright ignoring them on purpose, and this is reinforced by how he uses his headphones to tune out the sounds around him for himself. Introverted thinking aside, Alhaitham doesn't outright ignore his responsibilities and the goodwill of the general population of Sumeru. Though he makes it clear that he doesn't want to get overly involved in the lives of other people, but rather point them in the direction that they think is best for them. As shown with his general dislike to titles and formal etiquette, Alhaitham puts everyone on equal value, and doesn't discriminate or show bias. He only focuses on substantial objective observations or commonly known facts of life to make his two cents known to others. One of the few things he does have an opinion on is regarding humanity and the state of human nature, which interests him to a certain degree due to how there isn't a concrete answer to a complex concept as humanity. Alhaitham sounds bluntly serious and stoic most of the time, so it's a surprise for some to see that he has a sarcastic streak with how he makes jabs at those he is close with. Though because of his tone of voice, it can be easily mistaken as not a joke, and usually results with the person on the receiving end to become upset at him. For a person perceived to be difficult to get along with, Alhaitham can be a reliable ally and friend depending on the situation, they'll just need to break through the initial hoop that is him tuning them out to focus on his academic interests. As he focuses more on this intellectual pursuits, Alhaitham is never seen being too overly social, much so to the point that he represses those unbridled and unbecoming desires within his mind.

Abilities: Alhaitham is experienced with wielding a sword, and has above average stamina compared to the average scholar from Sumeru's Akademiya. He also possesses a Dendro Vision, which allows him to manipulate Dendro energy. He utilizes his Dendro Vision to create emerald green chiseled mirrors, either incorporating those into his swordplay in the form of elemental infusion or even reflecting pure Dendro energy at a target.

Sexual Kinks: Alhaitham's kisses are mostly simple, to the point, chaste, but passionate all the same. He hides his emotions when aroused, but it's easy to tell that he gets completely swept over by his own arousal and feelings.
