Although Julius can be harsh and single-minded, he is also loving and often uses his strict manner to ensure his loved ones' safety. He exudes confidence, but has another, nervous side to him that Carter likens to a hunted man. He can be somewhat overbearing and may make demands of people that they cannot meet, which is best illustrated by his relationship with his son. He has a tendency to hold his work bag close to himself when nervous and is known to be a terrible liar, but no amount of pestering him will get the truth.
