Kerchak is brave, powerful, and loyal. He cares a great deal about the gorilla family he leads, but his cold disposition gained after the death of his son causes those he loves to fear him. Kerchak also has a great hatred-like fear of outsiders of any kind, reacting aggressively when they are near. He is not without a heart, however, kind and almost loving to those he trusts, even outsiders that have gained that trust. | Kerchak is brave, powerful, and loyal.

In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Kerchak is leader of his gorilla family, taking great care of each member. He has a severe distrust of outsiders of any kind, as seen by how coldly he treats Sora and his friends. Once he learns he can trust Sora after Clayton's defeat, however, he grants the Keybearer and his friends access to the waterfalls, as Tarzan had previously requested. | In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Kerchak is leader of his gorilla family, taking great care of each member.

In the film ''Tarzan'', Kerchak is again the leader of the gorilla family, a caring and devoted mate and father. He begins to grow cold and distant to everyone, however, once their only infant is killed by Sabor. Kerchak does not accept Tarzan when Kala first brings him into the family, but he reluctantly lets her keep him. However, Kerchak's dislike of Tarzan causes the boy to feel he must prove himself to the elder gorilla, even though his efforts only make Kerchak angrier. A slight trust is built between Tarzan and Kerchak once the man kills Sabor and offers the leopard's body to him, but it is easily shattered when Tarzan betrays the gorilla family by bringing them into contact with humans, specifically Jane, her father, and Clayton. Loyal to his family to the last breath, Kerchak is later shot down by Clayton's gun. However, Kerchak makes amends with Tarzan for returning to save the other gorillas, finally accepting him as his son and successor before his death. | In the film ''Tarzan'', Kerchak is again the leader of the gorilla family, a caring and devoted mate and father.
