“Constant, you said you you haven't unlocked your personal trait yet, right?... Don't be too anxious in this game yet, there are many unexplained settings that will be revealed at some point. maybe it's such a tremendous ability, that it may not be able to manifest yet.”
― Hardcore Leveling Warrior[source]
Liar is a personal trait in Lucid Adventure. It is the Transcendental Skill Type personal trait of Constant.[1]
Infobox
Constant's personal trait, 'Liar', awakened at the same time that the Nightmare skill was activated.[2][1] The principle on which his skill worked is simple. He says a lie and the other person believes it is the truth.[1] He whispers to 'mana' and is able to trick magic and skills. Sometimes, the target's mind and body and even Constant's own body can be deceived by the lies.[1]
The extent to which a lie can deceive is limited. It can cancel magic, it can strengthen the user and even deceive a person's mind. 'Strengthening and temporary brainwashing'. Unlike any other transcendental type, it isn't a fraudulent skill (사기스킬) that can change the rules of the world.[1]
But the scary thing about Constant is that his lies are elaborately constructed.[1] In the end, the situation created by those accumulated lies makes it impossible to know what is real or and what is false. This leads the enemy to believe that Constant is using an unbelievable skill.[1]
And the only penalty of this personal trait is that the caster gradually becomes unable to distinguish between reality and lies.[1] Little by little, Constant was getting crazier every time he used his power.[1]

Overview
Even at Level 40, Constant had still not unlocked his personal trait which worried him.[3]
It was finally released during the Zara Guild's infiltration of Cobalt Castle. While Constant worried that he would be blamed for Armes capture, his Liar personal trait was released while he was under the Nightmare status and his eyes glowed a purple colour and he was able to use Hypocrite's Lie.[2]
Constant uses his own power and the power of Nightmare to make the Constant's skill more powerful than they should be.
During his visit of Cobalt Castle, he was able to make Sad Smile's staff turn against him and attack him, which most likely has something to do with him his personal attribute. Their eyes where glowing indicating a form of mind control[4]
When he was slashed by Hardcore Leveling Warrior he somehow switched places with Sad Smile's Chef and was unharmed. When he was attacked by Hardcore Leveling Warrior's Hell Fire, he was somehow able to appear behind Hardcore Leveling Warrior and was replaced by one of Sad Smile's employees. When he was leaving Cobalt Castle, he somehow made Sad Smile's underling stop Hardcore Leveling Warrior from following him.[5]
According to Han Gun-Ho, Constant can only use his ‘Lie’ skill when he's in a state of panic and can't use it without Mochi's stabilizer skill.[6]
