He deeply cares about his family and one of the few times Adolin admits to being frightened is seeing his father looking fragile and worn down{{ref|b|twok|c|28}}. Adolin even allows the four-on-one duel to continue when [[Relis Ruthar]] threatens to have [[Abrobadar]] ‘’accidentally” kill [[Renarin]]{{ref|b|sa2|c|56}}. He is also quick to defend Renarin when [[Sadeas]] insults his younger brother{{ref|b|twok|c|15}}. Adolin seems to have had a good relationship with his deceased mother as well, carrying a chain that once belonged to her for good luck during duels.{{ref|b|sa2|c|14}}
 
He is impulsive, often having to be held back by Renarin or rebuked by his father{{ref|b|sa2|c|12}}{{ref|b|twok|c|15}}. Sadeas even refers to him as a “firebrand”{{ref|b|twok|c|15}}. This impulsiveness of his has lead to him throwing Kaladin across the practice grounds while sparring{{ref|b|sa2|c|18}}, accidentally allowing Relis Ruthar to set him up in a one-on-four duel{{ref|b|sa2|c|53}} and contributed in some part to his snapping and murdering Sadeas.{{ref|b|sa2|c|89}}
 
Adolin has a strong sense of right and wrong. In his first encounter with Kaladin he saves a prostitute from being beaten by one of Sadeas’s officers.{{ref|b|twok|c|46}} He also throws himself in jail as a show of solidarity with Kaladin.{{ref|b|sa2|c|66}}
