'''Personality''': .

'''Personality''': Her attitude about heroes has shown to be rather negative at best. She has a strong dislike of Iron Man as shown when she tried to arrest him aboard the S.H.I.E.L.D helicarrier even after he saved the United Nations from being attacked by HYDRA. After Fury's disappearance and Hill became acting director of S.H.I.E.LD she seemed more focused on forcing the Avengers to join S.H.I.ELD rather then the fact that A.I.M. and HYDRA were currently attacking New York fighting over the Cosmic Cube. She's even willing to ask the President of the United States to create the Super-Human Registration Act so that all heroes will join S.H.I.E.L.D. whether they liked it or not.
