There are lines which imply that, a long time ago, Doorman used to slaughter humans, expressing glee at the chance to kill again and be feared during the ritual.<ref>{{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}'s in-game [[The Doorman/Quotes#Killstreak|voice line]] (High Killstreak): ''"I haven't slaughtered man like this for years, what a treat!"''</ref><ref>{{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}'s in-game [[The Doorman/Quotes#Killstreak|voice line]] (Medium Killstreak): ''"I forgot how wonderful it can feel to be feared."''</ref> | ||

* The Doorman thinks {{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}} is rude<ref>{{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}'s in-game [[The Doorman/Quotes#Enemies|voice line]] (Killed Lady Geist): ''"She always was rude."''</ref> and doesn't expect any tips from her.<ref>[[The Doorman/Quotes#Conversations|The Doorman & Lady Geist Conversation 2]] - {{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}: ''"I hope you don’t expect a tip for helping me."'' - {{PageRef|name=The Doorman}}: ''"I wouldn’t dream of expecting anything from you, Lady Geist."''</ref> | |||

* {{PageRef|name=Mina}} and {{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}} don't like talking to The Doorman since they view him as just "the help".<ref>[[The Doorman/Quotes#Conversations|The Doorman & Mina Conversation 1]] - {{PageRef|name=Mina}}: ''"I try not to talk to the help."''</ref><ref>[[The Doorman/Quotes#Conversations|Lady Geist & The Doorman Conversation 3]] - {{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}: ''"I’d rather you be silent."''</ref> | |||
