During much of the Toran Liberation War, Flik was immature and hotheaded.

The enemy is careless right now. It's our chance to attack! Follow me, everybody!" - Flik ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Flik became more mature during the war. He gradually grew more tactical, such as when he advised Tir that they bring Liukan to the [[Dragon's Den]], in order to make [[Joshua Levenheit]] more likely to commit to an alliance<ref>"Tir, this is our chance.
