Toland was described as one of the chief expert on the forbidden arcana of the Hive but he grew obsessed with their secrets, leading to his descent into mania and madness, which ultimately led to his exile from the Last City. Ghost even noted that Toland wasn't "fun at parties" after hearing an entry form his journal. Toland himself admitted he may be mad. Despite his madness, Toland possessed a deep hunger for knowledge and secrets, even willing to risk is very being to learn them. Eris claimed that such curiosity made Toland predictable as she knew he could not resist a marvel like [[Eleusinia]], Mara Sov's throne world. | |||
Despite aiding Eriana and Eris in their mission to kill Crota, the former Guardian would slowly grow more believing in the Hive's Sword-Logic, believing it to be a beautiful thing and that all should follow it. So much so, that he reacted with fury at the Guardian's decision to slay Oryx yet refuse to take his place as the Taken King. His bitterness with the Guardian would remain as he initially refused to aid the Guardian through the Ascendant Realm but relented in helping them. | |||
It's possible Toland possessed an inability to bond with others as though Eriana and her fireteam valued his knowledge and secrets, they were unnerved with his obsession with the Hive, though Eris herself stated that he was a friend of hers. Further, Toland was prone to keeping secrets from his teammates. His reunion with Eris was initially tense, given her suspicions of him, but he ultimately warned her of the dangers the Witch-Queen posed. | |||
