This section contains spoilers. (Skip Section)

In Digital Devil Saga: Avatar Tuner 2, more of Heat's personality and motivations are revealed throughout the story. Much of his violent, intimidating demeanor is implied to be a direct consequence of Sera's perception of his human predecessor, Heat O'Brien. Because Sera interpreted O'Brien as "scary"[1], her mental projection of Heat in the Junkyard was aggressive and cruel, the same way that Serph is influenced by Sera's inability to reconcile Sheffield's cruelty with his false kindness[2]. Sera also witnessed O'Brien's last moments, in which he demonstrated both compassion and aggression by pointing a gun at Sheffield in order to stop him from harming Sera more than was necessary to fulfill their goals; this may be the reason that Heat is torn between the urge to protect and the urge to destroy throughout both games.

In the end, Heat's compassion wins out — after sustaining a fatal wound as Vritra (DDS), he projects himself up into the EGG Facility's Control Room so that Sera, Cielo, and Gale will not have to watch him die, urging Serph to come "fight him" alone. He also chooses to support the party either as a direct member or as a contented bystander on the Sun, depending upon the player's choices. If the player chooses to keep Heat as a party member in lieu of Roland, Heat will tell Seraph to "lighten up already"[3], demonstrating that his heart is at ease despite past events, and that he is ready to rejoin his comrades as an Embryon one last time.
