Without a doubt, anyone that has seen Ragna will categorize him as 'intimidating'. It's not hard for them to get that impression considering his height, hair color, and really bright red wardrobe. Oh, and the giant sword definitely helped with the image too. The fact that he's also a wanted criminal also is a cause for people to generally avoid him rather than approach him. Oftentimes, though, there's always some who is reckless enough to actually start a conversation with him. In those rare cases, most people finds that his words are really blunt and that no, he's not interested in you at all.
In addition to the intimidating image he invokes, those who happened to be unlucky enough with their word choices can find themselves being the target of his anger. Which may or might not be punctuated with him swinging a giant sword at you. Generally, Ragna has a hair-trigger temper that revolves around him being either insulted or annoyed by the person that's currently talking to him. Most of the times these moments are also filled with curse words and yelling in general. These doesn't help his image at all. Some characters in canon do enjoy getting a rise out of him for the express purpose of entertainment due to this.
Beneath all this exterior though, lies genuine anger as well as the desire for revenge that's been with him for a long while already. Generally this means that anything related to an individual called Terumi will trigger his anger even more easily than usual. This vendetta is part of the reason he began his journey in the first place. In fact, his hatred of him is so great that whenever said person appears, all sense that he has at the point disappeared. He will, without fail be completely provoked by said man's words. Considering this fact, it could even be said that he becomes a single-minded berserker at his presence.
To be honest, there are periods where he shows momentary weakness, as in periods of time where he's not actually a scary criminal, but rather a decent guy. His interactions with Taokaka of the Kaka clan generally leans to him tolerating her presence and buying her food. In fact in Continuum Shift, he's generally shown to be pretty friendly with her too, agreeing to a friendly spar and such things. As long as you're innocent and not annoying him, Ragna can actually be a pretty decent guy when you manage to get him to open up. But like hell he's going to show this side of him in front of everyone. This is due to the fact that before everything went to hell, Ragna was in actuality a kind brother to his two other younger siblings. Fortunately, not all of his brotherly instinct had disappeared even with what happened to them, leaving him with moments of kindness like these.
By the end of the day though, despite his momentary kindness and moments of mindless rage, Ragna is partly aware that his power could end the world at any moment of notice if he so lost control of his Grimoire. There's fear and burden plaguing him of dying to it and ending the world, despite the fact that he could win fights easily with the Grimoire's power, Ragna chose to use his own abilities in most of his fights unless forced to. Ironically, it's a criminal who had the responsibility of the safety of the world hinging on him without everyone knowing about it.

Another wiki link, but Ragna's Grimoire will be limited to not cause apocalypse if it runs out of control, but rather just exhausting him to near death.
[Are you bringing in a canon element?]
His Azure Grimoire, as explained in the wiki, is a mass of concentrated black seithr that forms one of Ragna's severed arm. He could use this to access the Azure and pretty much wreck shit with it, at the cost of turning into the Black Beast if it ever gets out of control. Ragna uses it sparingly at the course of the story. In-game, it gives the effect of HP drain as well as imbuing Ragna's body with even more power than he used to have before.

[First Person]
-- You are on the verge of death. You know there is no way to survive and there's no coming back. Choose any of the following to answer: What is your last wish? Your last regret? Last thoughts? How do you feel? Who is the last person you think of other than your killer?
I've survived death once. [there's a sharp glare from him when he says that.] If you think that I'll die without fighting back, you sure as hell are wrong. 'Course, I'll probably be thinking of a way to give that guy what he deserved for doing that to me in the first place.
- Murder. What is your opinion?
Pain in the ass, don't like doing so, but there is this one guy I'd be happy to give a one way ticket to hell to.
- If you could destroy a city, how would you do it?
By posing as a pizza delivery guy. I don't know, it's like asking an idiot, "how do you screw a lightbulb with your eyes closed?", isn't it? [this answer's said with a completely flat tone.]
- Oh no! Someone tripped and injured themselves right in front of you! What do you do?
Why would I care about someone who trips over air? [there's a sigh as he said that.] Seriously, these questions are getting annoying.
- You discover someone stalking you. Do you call the police or deal with it yourself?
It's probably my dumbass of a brother, he's harmless when you know how to exactly beat him up each time he shows up.
- Do you stand up against authority, go against all odds, and if you could, pierce the heavens with your fighting spirit? If not, would you if you could?
I'm a criminal, I kill Librarium officers and wreck their bases, don't get that bullshit about piercing the heavens, so there's your damn answer.
[Third Person]
This is bullshit. Then again, everything about this place is bullshit, according to the head of one Ragna the Bloodedge as he's being harassed by a bunch of scarecrows that's moving on it's own while he was taking yet another nightmare laced nap that startled all of them. Which led to him being surrounded and looking really annoyed as he bat them all away while getting up. Honestly, asking for a nice rest in any kind of place is probably too much to hope for, Ragna mused to himself as he started walking, pretty much ignoring them as he made his way to well, anywhere that doesn't have these annoying as fuck things.
That thought was short-lived when one of them poked him in his eyes, and another pretty much kicked his manhood, leaving him to keel over in pain. They apparently kick pretty hard too for a bunch of living sticks, to be honest.
"That's it."
A phrase was muttered as he got up, right hand reaching to the giant sword strapped in his back. Maybe he'd feel better after chopping them up into tiny little pieces. And he's heard words that people often sleep better when they're tired anyways. Pulling it out, he's going to just brandish that big slab of metal at them with a yell.
"COME AT ME YOU ASSHOLES, AND SEE IF I CARE ENOUGH TO NOT RIP YOU TO PIECES!"
Just a normal day for him, to be honest.
[Why do you want to play this character in Somarium?]
Well, I guess I'd like him to be less grumpy, but really it's more of the sense I just want to play a douche and be done with it.
[Which rule was your favorite and why?]
no god-modding, because I've ran into several godmodders back when I was still doing Forum RPs.
[Where did you hear about Somarium?] Dammit Nami, stop enabling me.
