Venus is reliable and hardworking on any task she sets their mind to if they deem it worthy of their time. They’re ambitious in their goals, looking to improve and achieve at every chance. They are most obedient to those who rank above them, valuing authority greatly and seeking approval, and those who have earned their respect or somehow impressed them. Though, an empathetic side to them can be exposed with a good sob story, especially if they perceive the owner of the tale to be weaker than themself. They’re judgmental in nature and quick to decide if people fall into one of these categories to be worth serving. Venus will entertain others but with much less patience or interest until swayed. Despite how composed she tries to act in order to best fill their new employment, they are rather emotionally charged. As much as they try to bury that under a cool exterior, the only thing they listen to more than their own emotions is orders to keep them in line. While not inclined to start fights, Venus loves to finish them. She relishes the adrenaline-filled moment of the job and the thrill of the fight, thriving when things get violent. Their own well-being is a second thought at the best of times, making them reckless when they are the ones calling the shots.

While Alive
Venus has no recollection of her past as it has yet to be discovered! Though, Venus herself is rather content without knowing and embracing her second chance.
Back from the Dead
The first thing Venus can remember is waking up at a fountain with instense need for something. Why this is a feeling that has stuck with her is unkown to her, but she is more interested in the second chance she's gotten and new employment! Still in training, she's trying to figure out how to progress in these brand new circumstances.
The Future
We'll have to see what happens here!
Venus's bonded! A baby swan with soft gray feathers (ugly duckling). Both of these two looked at each other and said "This thing is in desperate need of my help!" Odette is more correct in this assumption than Venus is. Venus doesn't always agree with the way Odette pushes her or understand the affection she gives, but she overall enjoys her company all the same. They outwardly couldn't seem more different, but they have more in common than Venus will acknowledge.
One of the closest things to friendship Venus has experienced. She helped him after seeing him injured and viewed him as frankly pathetic and strange for most of their time together, but he was able to impress and surprise her with how he returned the favor in moments where it mattered. They stuck together until their ends during the trials, so he's earned her trust. He's chatty and she won't admit it is growing on her. She feels comfortable with him.
The other closest relationship Venus has to friendship even if she hesitates to call either that. Agatha shares a bunk with Venus! Their relationship is awkward both because of a strange guilt Venus has over Agatha dying to save her in the trials after she initially underestimated her (despite the fact they are both back and well now!) and also being told Agatha has the hots for her. Both these emotions are a little much for her to process, but she feels a softness for Agatha, something she won't confess to.
Jerry confounds Venus. She's helped him out in the trials and in training, and he started to return the favor by carrying her when injured. She weirdly respects him and appreciates the gesture, even if she feels a bit off about accepting help. But in addition to all this, he frustrates her with his willingness to (literally and metaphorically) step on people beneath him to get ahead. He irritates and inspires, and Venus is not prepared to unpack any of it. Somehow punching each other made her like him slightly more, though.
They've interacted little, but Venus holds both respect and judgment toward Addie. She defers to her as a superior but finds the tactics she used during the trials to try to surpass others distasteful, especially for someone to use on those at a disadvantage to themselves with less experience and supposedly less prepared. (more to be added)
Venus has interacted with Bernie very little, but she likes the way the woman carries herself. She's quiet and tends to stick around Jerry which confuses her even if she still admires the loyalty, and Venus finds her presence easier to be around than most from their brief meetings. Strong handshake so respect. (more to be added)
The brief glimpses of Eddie's performance in the trial were admirable. They've only personally spoken briefly at this point, but she actually likes the idea of getting to learn more about them and how they were able to get so far. Maybe there are some valuable lessons to be learned here. She's interesting. (more to be added)
