Stiles remembers small details easily:

conversations, patterns,
maps, schedules,
strange behaviors, symbols and clues.

She has an associative mind, which means she connects seemingly unrelated information. Many of her deductions come from noticing minute details.

He also tends to obsess over solving mysteries until he finds answers. When something doesn't make sense, he can't let it go.

He makes awkward comments when he's nervous. He uses strange references or jokes in serious moments.
He constantly makes fun of himself. He tries to relieve tension with humor even when he's scared.

Very loyal

Stiles would literally do anything for the people he loves. His loyalty to Scott is one of the most important relationships in the series. He's also fiercely protective of his father and his friends. Even when he's scared, he always ends up helping.

Anxious and overthinking

Stiles suffers from anxiety and panic attacks at certain points in the series. He tends to overthink things, imagine horrific scenarios, and become emotionally burdened with guilt. When something goes wrong, he often blames himself even if it wasn't his fault.

Emotionally intense

Although he seems relaxed and joking, he feels everything very deeply:

He gets very attached to people. He's afraid of losing those he loves.
He is very sensitive to rejection. When he is emotionally hurt, he can become impulsive, aggressive, or desperate.

Brave even when afraid

An important aspect of Stiles is that he's not brave because he's fearless, but because he acts even when terrified. He often enters dangerous situations without powers, simply because someone needs help.

Chaotic but functional

Stiles has a very hyperactive energy:

He speaks quickly. He moves around a lot.
He has impulsive ideas. He seems disorganized.
Sometimes he acts before he thinks.

But curiously, in the midst of chaos, he is usually the one who finds the solution.

intelligent and extremely observant

Stiles has a very quick mind. He's the kind of character who connects the dots before everyone else and often notices things that others miss. Although he seems absentminded or impulsive, he's actually very analytical. He has a partial photographic memory and is good at investigating mysteries, theories, and suspicious behavior.

Sarcastic and with a nervous sense of humor

One of his most famous characteristics is his humor. He makes jokes even in dangerous or tense situations. He uses sarcasm to cope with fear, stress, and his emotions. He talks a lot, changes the subject quickly, and often thinks out loud.
