Perry, on the other hand, is portrayed as more sensitive, artistic, and introspective, with a troubled childhood that left him scarred both physically and emotionally.

For example, Dick's lack of empathy and tendency towards violence led him to commit the brutal murders. Perry's introspective nature and sensitivity make him more vulnerable to feelings of guilt and remorse.
