PERSONALITY: pros: cunning, confident/charismatic, loyal, thoughtful, approachable, positive, selfless
cons: liar, hedonistic, liar, apathetic, and did we mention a huge fucking liar?

Molly as mentioned is the wiki is likened to an actual preening peacock. He's proud, full of himself, and oozes confidence, all while being sometimes a bit of an ostentatious brat. Still, when he forges friendships, he honors them.

Mollymauk, being a repetitive compulsive liar, still has a moral compass of sorts. Having made most of his way since waking up on lying, conning, and trickery, Molly is morally sound enough to suggest to Nott the Brave to 'only steal things from grumpy people', explaining that happy people don't deserve their ire. He's also mentioned at times that his lies are sometimes an alternative to an unkind truth, and that pretending to read fortunes or even complimenting someone harms no one, it sometimes provides hope or confidence to another, which is sometimes what they're really in need of.

"I spent two years before I met you all cajoling people, occasionally ripping them off, occasionally doing a good turn here or there. Never trust the truth. The truth is vicious, the truth thinks that you owe it something. None of that. I like my bullshit. It's good, it's happy, it makes other people happy."

To his forged friends, Mollymauk can be fiercely loyal, as shown with Beau and Yasha in the Mighty Nein. He confided much in Yasha, as shown by her unparalleled grief later on when he died. Beau, who was not always on best terms with Molly, was repentant after he had died, even to go so far as to keep his cards, his gold, and his Periapt of Wound Closure and she distributed them accordingly. His influence was strong enough to leave a lasting mark on his friends, some still grieving when he is mentioned in game.

When alive though, Molly is positive, looking to go about things with an outward attitude. He's very much a steward of the saying 'What could go wrong?' and usually having it...go wrong. He thoroughly enjoyed luxury and the pursuit of, spending gold on escorts and alcohol a few times with the Mighty Nein. He also believes in the best of people, likely a side effect of his time with the Circus.

On some occasions, silliness and outright fuckery has begun on account of Molly,

Mollymauk, while given the outward appearance of being a con man, a carnie and an entertainer, is/was a positive, crafty, and loyal friend to those he was friends with, and an absolute pain in the ass for those he wasn't.
