Personality
Simon is a ruthless mercenary who is willing to kill people for money. He seemed to take great pride in his work as he even tracked down one of his surviving targets to the hospital to finish him off. He mentioned he did not kill Sara Lance and admitted he would have said it if he had as he is proud of his work. Despite seemingly killing without qualms he only killed targets he got paid for. He did not shoot Laurel even though he easily could have. When attacked by The Arrow he shot him and then quickly fled instead of trying to finish him off. In all confrontations against The Arrow and Arsenal he only used enough violence to create a window of escape and seemingly did not want to engage them; implying that Simon does not kill anyone who gets between him and his target(s).
