likes, Power - Pallando, like any person craves to have influence, control and dominance over others. Even as an Istari wizard of power, Pallando seeks more. Perhaps not the ring itself, for as a calculating figure he knows its power is too great.
The South- Pallando was ordered by the Order to the East along with Alator and Saruman. After Saruman returned to the West, Pallando went South and become accustom to and comfortable around the customs and ways of the southern lands.
Water and Air - Pallando has a great expertise and affinity with the elements of water and air. His magic masters such powers in the same way Sauron utilizes shadow and flame, Elves light and greenery etc. It was such magic which gave him influence and respect of the people in the arid deserts of the South.
Luxuries - Pallando loves the fine delicacies which his stature and fame can award. Because of this, Pallando likes nothing more than a fine ale with a fresh pipe.
The Race of Men - Although rather critical of the mortal folk of Middle Earth, Pallando, like Gandalf, has great faith and trust in humanity. His knowledge of the Western kingdoms of Gondor, Rohan and Arnor and his long study of the Haradrim and the Men of Umbar imstilled a love and respect of the aforementioned race.
dislikes, Subservience - Pallando hates feeling or acting below another person. Because of this attitude, he holds little respect for the institutions of the world such as Monarchy or even the Istari Order itself - power is the only attribute on which he measures himself and others.
Meat - Pallando is a strict vegetarian, seeing the slaughter and then consumption of innocent living creatures, excluding those who would seek to attack or threaten him, as sickening as well as barbaric. As maiar need little real sustenance anyway, Pallando eats only fruits, nuts and liquids.
Orcs/Goblins - Although learned and ecclectic, Pallando's knowledge of the said races only further cemented his dislike, distrust and distaste of orcs, goblins and their ilk. In truth, he hardly acknowledges them as living creatures at all.
Cold - After many long years in the warm and comforting heat of Harad, Pallando has become acclimatized to hot, sunny weather, typical of the region. It is with little glee or comfort that Pallando travels north to endure the moist cold of the Kingdoms of Elves, Dwarves and Men.
Alatar the Blue - After a severe falling out (as explained in the history section) Pallando deeply dislikes his former comrade; his name being a synonym for betrayal, hate or loathing. An underlying sense of rivalry and jealousy is mingled with this respective dislike.
