As for his tendencies, Strade is a by the book definition of a sexual sadist. This implying he finds sexual arousal in making others suffer, which can also be seen in a number of his endings. This factor is one of the reasons the dripping red heart is achievable for his character and his alone.

You can go as far as to suggest Sociopathy, which may indeed be the case. Like a Sociopath, he has a very small field of empathy. However hard it may be for Strade to feel for others it is expressed in a singular route where he takes pity on you and keeps you for his own, as he has done before. So it isn't improbable to suggest his conscience is relevant, albeit hard to achieve. Strade's original background is unknown besides the fact that he is German-Canadian. Despite this it can be implied he has been killing for a long time, hence his skill and calm appearance. Most of the tools Strade uses to torture captives are mainly construction tools, including a nail gun, drill, hammer, saw, screwdriver, etc. Strade hates guns. He thinks they’re a stupid invention that take all the fun out of everything. Strade has a good technical information. His favorite color is fire green.

Strade has a fear of being limited or being locked up. Strade likes German folk, upbeat and happy themed music. Strade can speak Plattdeutsch, also known as "Low German", a dialect spoken in Northern Germany.
