He sees humans as pathetic weaklings, inferior beings "of no importance." He has great faith in his immense strength, feeling that he can overcome any opposition, no matter how powerful, and this often causes him to underestimate his opponents. He is also shown to be extremely cruel, as shown when he ruthlessly killed his own brother Gluttony in order for him to absorb Gluttony's abilities for his fight against Edward.

He quickly resorts to petty taunts and insults against opponents. Pride is also extremely arrogant in battle. He loves the honor of being a Homunculus the most, and encourages his siblings to feel contempt towards all non-homunculi. However, whereas Father treats humans with a bored or apathetic attitude (probably because Father is slothful), Pride treats humans like playthings/slaves. He tries to act superior to humans by pretending they are insects for him, filling himself with false dignity and futile boastfulness. His true personality is similar to Father's. Much of his positive traits vanish when he reverts to his Pride persona. Sometimes he reveals part of his true personality, such as when he calls Edward "tiny" even though Pride is actually much shorter than Edward, and when he shows no shame about exclaiming loudly in the royal library. He also seems fanatically interested in the Elric Brothers, reacting with giddy excitement upon meeting them. He displays great admiration and respect for his "father", King Bradley, at one point writing a glowing report about him for a school project. When first introduced under the guise of Selim Bradley, Pride acts as if he has the mannerisms of a usual young boy, displaying a proneness to hero worship.
