Sahadeva is said to be mild-mannered, bashful, patient, and virtuous in every aspect, except he was arrogant about his wisdom and his spiritual knowledge. Sahadeva had two wives: Draupadi, the common wife of the Pandavas, and Vijaya, whom he married. Sahadeva's son with Draupadi was Shrutasena and in the Kuruskhetra war he killed Dushasana’s son and avenged the death of Abhimanyu, Arjuna’s son. His son with his other wife Vijaya was Suhotra.
