	Fearless due to the knowledge she is effectively immortal, the Dark One will normally engage others in combat with glee. She has been known to use dual daggers, sowing confusion by simultaneously assaulting opponents and her own body, allowing her to slip seamlessly from one vessel to another. She recalls having earned medals and having received escorts as a Confederate officer, implying some experience - and possibly acclaim - as a military commander.

	Janie has proven to be capable of care and kindness, even [[love]], but finds the impulse to show this side of her personality confusing, even unsettling, and it is constantly at odds with or tainted by her innate selfishness. While she denies feeling any sort of regret or shame for her past actions, she is not entirely reliable in this regard. At the very least, she regrets how her past decisions have come to haunt her, as loneliness makes her feel cold and empty. In a moment of honesty, she admitted that much of her brutality serves simply as a distraction from her loneliness.

	Although the Dark One will admit to having [[:Category:Cannibal\|eaten human flesh]], she justifies this by citing necessity - as when she had been trapped in sieges and all other available sources of food had been depleted. She looks down on those who engage in cannibalism when such a necessity does not exist, and treats them not only with disdain, but brutal violence. Her reaction to those who engage in pedophilia - or accuse her of it - is even more negative, with the pure [[rage]] she felt rendering her momentarily unable to act, but plotting hideous retribution.

	While Janie freely drinks [[alcohol]], smokes [[tobacco]] and partakes of soft drugs, and her ability to switch bodies would enable her to kick any unfortunate chemical dependency she might pick up, she appears to have a dislike or at least be unwilling to partake of hard drugs.

	The Dark One is a powerful physical combatant, being strong enough to crack a human skull and scramble the brain within with a single punch. She appears to be competent with firearms, and a skilled motorcycle driver. While the Other took the majority of the magic practised by their 'parent', Janie Augustus proves to be a moderately powerful spellcaster in her own right, being capable of raising barriers, enhancing another creature's lifeforce and starting fires among other things. She remarks at one point that she designed spells of [[Necromancy]] related to the creation of [[undead]], which she did not share with her then-mate. She is a supernaturally powerful [[:Category:Hypnotist\|hypnotist]], being able to suppress the will of any creature that meets her gaze.

			In closing, the Dark One is a highly-skilled [[violinist]]. Although she jokingly claims to know enough songs to serve as bait for a lover, there is indication that she has a very wide repertoire, and genuinely enjoys making [[music]].
