Personality
Vilgax is extremely cruel, arrogant, authoritative, and power-hungry as he always intent on his goal of ruling the universe, namely through obtaining the Omnitrix, which he views as the ultimate weapon. Vilgax is also very deceiving and manipulative, so as to accomplish his goals and has little to no sense of mercy.
