ADD paired with the pseudobulbar affect, a pinch of hypomania, psychological conditioning, and a winning-fight against Parkinson's due to a superpowered sociopath, and-VOILA-a lunatic without remorse or harmonic movement patterns.

He's able to switch between focus points with irregular brevity (ADD), has janky movements with an erratic flow to them (Parkinson's), seems incapable of holding a singular emotion at any given point before it's bleeding into another one (Psuedobulbar affect), and he's obsessed with Salem (Mental conditioning).

As Salem's powers aren't clearly defined just yet, there's the possibility that she's capable of curing or-at the very least-combating serious diseases/conditions. With that in mind, and if Tyrian really were to have Parkinson's, he'd be indebted to her for life for giving him a chance at more than slowly becoming incapable of sustaining himself. Add in Salem's inevitable desire for total fealty, and she'd have an easier time conditioning this guy into being the perfect hunting hound. If I'm right, that would explain his exaggerated motion, as he'd be reveling in the fact that he has control over his body at all.

Looking at his behavior, I'd be hard pressed to find something more fitting than "hypomanic" as a description for this bloodhungry killer. He's disinhibited, appears to lose his sense of risk assessment when he's in a good mood (Whenever he's on the battle field). Overall increase in energy, unusual behaviors/actions, grandiosity and a markedly distinctive increase in talkativeness and confidence-which is commonly exhibited with a large increase in creative ideas....Does this not fit Tyrian in some way that I'm not aware of?

I know quite a few people with ADHD and ADD (not to mention that I'm clinically diagnosed with ADD), so this isn't hard to recognize in someone when they're as hyper as a two year-old on a sugar rush. Those with ADD/ADHD are often driven individuals with an intelligence that isn't as by-the-books and a lot more imprecise, primarily based on events as they come about.

And, the cherry on top of the mental instability-sundae, his emotional inconsistency can be justified by the Psuedobulbar Affect being a secondary condition to both Parkinson's and ADD/ADHD. It's a type of emotional disturbance, commonly known as "emotional liability" and "emotional incontinence", as its incongruency often leads to situations that are far from preferable.
