Adon exuded great pride in warfare, considering the battlefield sacred to men and viewing himself as a proud knight of Tudor. Despite his arrogance and high opinion of his skills, he displayed cowardice in the face of danger, often preferring to have his soldiers risk their lives for him while appealing to their pride as Tudor knights. His misogyny was evident as he believed a woman's presence on the battlefield desecrated it, asserting that Casca's involvement was solely due to her relationship with Griffith. Adon degradingly referred to Casca as his "prisoner" and harbored vengeful intentions towards her for the death of his brother Samson, swearing she would become his plaything. During the Doldrey battle, he callously entertained the idea of letting a wounded Casca live as such. After his skirmish with Guts, Adon shifted into a more comical and dishonorable role, feigning death, begging for mercy, and resorting to attacking from behind. His final act of treachery involved begging Casca for mercy only to shoot her with a small crossbow when her guard was down. Ultimately, he met his demise at Casca's hands in the ensuing confrontation.
