The Confirmer, like all Prometheans, was once a great and respected warrior. However, after 1,200 years of solitary guard duty, his mental and physical abilities had deteriorated considerably. He was quite out-of-shape, and wore armor that appeared to have been compiled from several different sets. His figure was large and lumpish with mottled gray skin, spotted with unhealthy veins of paleness tinged with pink. He no longer had the patches of bluish-white bristling fuzz on the crown and shoulders that marked many of the [[Warrior-Servants]] and his stone-black teeth were fused together with growth.<ref> '''Halo: Cryptum''', ''page 179''</ref>

The Confirmer was energetic in personality, though that appeared to be thanks to being alone from over a millennium until the Didact returned. He had grown very careless in his old age, allowing his weapons and ship to fall into disrepair, and did not even check if the Didact still held his rank after his exile.<ref>'''Halo Cryptum''', ''page 187''</ref> Bornstellar suspected he had spent his time building useless trinkets within the ship, diminishing its resources and design.<ref>'''Halo Cryptum''', ''page 180''</ref>

The Confirmer was fond of San'Shyuum art, and he valued it especially because it was worthless to Forerunners.<ref>'''Halo Cryptum''', ''page 171''</ref> He kept himself away from the business of [[Lifeworker]]s and [[Builder]]s, since they were a higher rate than Prometheans.<ref name=c178/>
