When he took over Billy's body he began to have more dialogues in the series. However, all The Lich said clearly when he was on her body is that he wanted to destroy all existing life. When The Lich possessed Princess Bubblegum he was very unreasonable, he didn't speak coherently and just thought in destroying everything in his path. Despite his difficulty to show emotions, he is visibly shocked when Finn survives his fire attack, and laughs too when Finn attacks him with his sweater, showing his emotion to find a worthy opponent who can cope while getting mocked for being much more powerful than Finn and being about to escape. His words have much seriousness, as well as being an expert in the use of reverse psychology, which is shown when he could mislead Finn. Unlike other villains who are always centered in their different plans, The Lich only has the plan of total annihilation, and he will kill anyone who he considers an obstacle on his way, no matter the price. The Lich doesn't have another main objective than giving extinction to all life and all beings. The Lich is depicted as a darkly sadistic, nihilistic, and malevolent lord. 3.3 Possessed Bubblegum, Second Defeat and possessed Waving Snail.3.2 Escape from the imprisonment and First Defeat.
