In Persona 3, he is a silent protagonist, aside from technically speaking in battle in certain instances. While being a silent protagonist, he is very stoic, reserved and calm, gathered by the fact that he's faced death and his own mortality: he remains unmoved even when guns are pointed at him (such as by Aigis herself,) as well as walking under a green sky and being surrounded by blood pools and coffins everywhere at the beginning of Persona 3.
