Once it becomes necessary, Ivans isn't one to back down from a fight,{{book ref|Skyward|prologue}} but she is often cautious about committing her pilots to battle for fear of sending them into a trap.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}} She is self-aware and able to recognize her own shortcomings, such as her trouble committing to an engagement and decreased reaction time.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}} According to Cobb, she is surprised whenever someone defies her,{{book ref|Skyward|6}} though she says most of the people who once did are now dead and is actually pleased that Cobb is still around to defy her.{{book ref|Skyward|i|1}} She regrets all of the pilots who have been killed while following her battle orders, but knows that there is only so much she can do and that letting her guilt weigh her down is not productive. Nevertheless, she makes sure to read the casualty reports from, and watch the holos of, every battle, listen to any audio from a pilot's last moments, and hand-write a letter to the family of any pilots who were killed.{{book ref|Skyward|i|1}}{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}} She is known for being "stern, but fair."{{book ref|Skyward|5}}
== Attributes and Abilities ==▼
=== Pilot ===▼
Ivans was a skilled pilot, who was capable of tailing a pilot as skilled as Chaser, and flightleader of Hope Flight.{{book ref|Skyward|39}} At some point after the Battle of Alta, however, she realized she was getting to old to fly in battle and entered the DDF's admiralty.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}}▼
=== Knowledge of the Defect ===▼
Many of the most important families on [[Detritus]] trace their lineage back to those who mutinied on the [[Defiant]], and so do everything they can to keep knowledge of the mutiny and defect contained.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}}{{book ref|Skyward|44}} Ivans, however, is at least aware of the mutiny and believes it was caused by the defect, though she herself admits that the whole story isn't "clear" to her.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}} Initially, she believed that the defect should not keep people from becoming pilots and "stuck her neck out" by arguing that Chaser should be allowed in the DDF.{{book ref|Skyward|48}} Ever since he attacked her flight in the Battle of Alta, however, she has been absolutely terrified of another pilot with the defect joining the DDF. This often puts her in conflict with many prominent National Assembly Leaders and the head of Alta Base's medical staff, [[Thior|Dr. Thior]], all of whom deny the existence of the defect.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}} In order to protect the DDF, she does everything she can to make life so miserable for Spensa that she drops out{{book ref|Skyward|29}} and has her medical staff set up sensors in Spensa's helmet to record brain activity and watch for signs of the defect.{{book ref|Skyward|i|2}} After she discharges Spensa from the DDF for ejecting during a battle, Ivans feels that Spensa's tenure in the DDF has worked out in the best way possible, as Ivans has succeeded at keeping her from flying and now has data to monitor all new cadets for signs of the defect.{{book ref|Skyward|i|3}}▼
== History ==
After the Krell are defeated and Spensa manages to save Alta, she decides to pardon Chaser and tries to convince Spensa not fly to space, but to no avail.{{book ref|Skyward|54}} When Spensa returns, she sees little value in the information that M-Bot hacked from the Krell, as it does not change the fact the DDF is still facing down a superior force.{{book ref|Skyward|epilogue}} Sometime after the battle, she reluctantly retires as Admiral of the Fleet of the DDF and Cobb, equally as reluctant, steps up to fill the position.{{book ref|Starsight|4}}
