Disdaining the more philosophic inclinations of his father, Commodus was extremely proud of his physical prowess. The historian Herodian, a contemporary, described Commodus as an extremely handsome man.<ref>Grant, Michael. The Roman Emperors (1985)pp 99. </ref> As mentioned above, he ordered many statues to be made showing him dressed as Hercules with a lion's hide and a club. He thought of himself as the reincarnation of Hercules, frequently emulating the legendary hero's feats by appearing in the arena to fight a variety of wild animals. He was left-handed, and very proud of the fact. |

Cassius Dio, seorang saksi mata, menggambarkannya sebagai "bukan orang jahat secara alami, tetapi sebaliknya, sepolos siapapun yang pernah hidup. Namun, sifat sederhana yang kuat, bersama sifat penakutnya, membuatnya menjadi budak rekan-rekannya, dan melalui mereka, pada mulanya, berkat kenaifannya, tidak bisa menikmati hidup yang lebih baik, dan kemudian diarahkan ke kebiasaan foya-foya dan kejam, yang kemudian menjadi sifat keduanya."[2]
