I see him as a little of both. He is a calm refined individual who would prefer to approach most of life in a civilized manner including battle, to fight with honor and valor. But instead he has found that in his blood is the magic of ancient kings but that he can only access this force while his most primal feelings are unleashed. Wanted to try to play someone who exists in extremes, not trying to find balance in the middle. Both calm and enraged, wild and civilized and not seeing it as contradictions.
