Lev is serious and pessimistic. Hardened by the harsh world he lives in, Lev is a capable fighter and killer. Despite this, he displays moments of wonder and innocence indicative of his age, such as stubbornly attempting to reach out to his mother despite Yara's warnings, and convincing Abby not to kill the pregnant Dina. He is also protective of those he loves, seeing it as his duty to take care of his family.
Despite being ostracized from his previous pack, the Seraphites, Lev maintains many elements of their culture; however, his faith is shaken by his mother's death. He also refers to the outside predators as "demons". His knowledge of the outside world is limited because of his upbringing, although he has begun to come into himself with Abby's help.
