But evil or not, Ombet certainly isn't good or necessarily even likable. He is aloof and detached from all of his emotions, and goes about with a condescending air towards all other people. Though he does like his bond in his own way, he presents his loyalty to the man more like a bodyguard would. He is not affectionate, but will loom ominously over his bond's shoulder if Halley is up against someone that needs intimidating, and will interpose himself between Halley and a threat with the cool unconcern of a mercenary who's only doing what he's paid to do.

Liking and being loyal to his bond, however, aren't the same thing as being obedient! Ombet only does what he's told if it's something really important, and has no qualms about manipulating Halley's fear of him into making the man do something he wants!
