Smh we should set fire to the noblesOkay, I think I have almost everyone down. When I'm less busy I'll do a part 2 with the newly approved characters.
Judyth: Odessa would roll her eyes at the stereotypical patriotism and would be put off by the high energy. Nonetheless, it's not quite cringeworthy compared to some of the other cadets so I could see her warming up to Judyth farther down the line.
Amroi: Ogres are a rare sight so there would be some novelty in his appearance, though she would also think of him as a meathead due to his headstrong attitude. While she wouldn't ever consider him a friend, she does think his talent in CQC could prove useful in the future.
Durthai: "You know they're sending us to die right?" Odessa can't tell whether she's an ingenue, a saint, or just stupidly nice. Odessa doesn't necessarily want to leave her disillusioned, but she does wonder whether Durthai ever fully processed what happened with her family. I think Odessa would try to befriend/protect her.
Cyra: Useful for protection, but not necessarily interesting. I can't see the two of them interacting much.
Saimos: It's hard to feel anything but annoyance at people born with a golden spoon in their mouth. The type of man she'd tell to walk off his problems regardless of how severe they may be. She would view every action of his with an extra critical eye.
Felix: Odessa confesses that she has a weakness for dogs (albeit it's not as strong as her love of cats) so his pictures would get him on her good side. His ability to defuse situations would likely keep Odessa from getting into any heated arguments. His presence would probably be the only way she'd be willing to be in the same room as Saimos.
Rakh: Outside of his work, he doesn't seem to have much going for him. She can appreciate his skills, but wouldn't go out of her way to approach him.
Muris: There is a certain type of person, one who hasn't done anything wrong but still illicits a level of annoyance that can't be put into words. Muris is one of these people. Being terse, business-like, or blunt are all fine traits to have yet the combination of it mixed with his vibe just sucks.
Fionnuala: She's cute if you can ignore the the royal blood in her. A tiny, little fanged soldier doing her best to find her brother! The mask seems like overkill in Odessa's opinion but as long as it matches the outfit, she sees no issue in Fion wanting to feel secure in appearance.
Pakston: He's a teacher, admittedly a cool one but not someone she would feel close to.
Nikadim: Do cadets only come in one of two flavors? Where his brother is a cog in the machine, Nika seems to be on five different stimulants at any given time. Hyperactive and chaotic, she wonders how the man has survived to adulthood. She can't see herself genuinely befriending him, but the idea of having front row seats to his shenanigans would be enough for her to hang out with Nikadim.
Aeoun: Knowing nothing about the Katasteri, she'd think that he's a weird LARPer trying to imitate the warriors of old. His Aureum techniques would be of great interest to her due to some of their opposing features. Can the Horizon Blade cut through an antimatter bullet? Audiences are eager to know.
Liane: Right now all Odessa knows her as is "same height girl with giant sword." Upon learning more about her though, Odessa would be intrigued by Liane's origins and ask more questions, even if it means getting through a rather flat personality.
Eko: I know I've already had Odessa approach him so right now her general impression of him is that he's weird,thirstysocially awkward guy from far away. His Aureum techniques would certainly be enough for her to look past his quirks.
Sarina: Sarina goes to show that you can live "by the book" and still have a personality while doing it. I think Odessa would appreciate that aspect of her. Not mention that she would enjoy going toe to toe with Sarina in darts or the shooting range.
Marian: Another day, another noble. Given that Odessa has no context for Marian's past, she likely sees her as little more than the prim and proper princess of the military industrial complex. If she did learn the truth behind Marian's family she would be sympathetic but question why she's still acting as a pawn for House Malik rather than extorting them. It's a waste of political power, honestly.
Rel-Taren: Soon to be rival and future cohort! Finding out that they have nearly the same Aureum techniques would incite a (probably one sided) rivalry between herself and Rel, somewhat fueled by his seemingly unreliable demeanor. Hearing about his motives to join the army would remind her of her own family's demons and inspire her to ally with him. Assuming they ever have time to change out of their uniforms, she'd definitely help him find something a tad more Farbanian-friendly.
Vivien: She's corny, but that's to be expected of the elderly. More than ten years her senior, Odessa is definitely going to tease Vivien for being old and take every chance she can to riff off of her jokes. During training sessions I can imagine the two of them getting into a rivalry due to the two having high standards for themselves and also Vivien's competitive streak.
These are all subject to change so just @ me if yall wanna do some deeper planning
I got my guilotine

Damn that's some profound understanding of your characters interpersonal relationships. Truly one of the most written things of all time.
"Oh no. They died. While we're on topic. What's for dinner?"
"Dinner will consist of rations from the canteen."
Thank you kindly, my insights into anthropology and psychology gives me an edge in this field.
Herakles in space! And he has to slay many Sorentese drones to complete his trial.
Ah, yes. The Sorentese Hidra. Utilising advanced nano-circuitry repair functions, its severed cranial processing centres are reformed then multiplied to increase data sifting efficiency.
I remember that too, yeah, it inspired Aeoun's thing in part.
Herakles ascended to godhood, don't give Aeoun such a big head!
