Although she performed up to standard in training exercises and maintained a facade of confidence, Tchakova ultimately appeared to be less emotionally mature than most of the other cadets of Hastati Squad. Combined with her over-emphasizing of her parents' position at every opportunity, her collected demeanor and courage would quickly evaporate at the first sign of actual danger. In addition, she would occasionally comfort herself by holding a small plush [[toy]] which she had taken with her to the academy among her personal effects. Like most other members of [[Hastati Squad|her squad]], Dimah had a negative view of [[Thomas Lasky]], whom she perceived as an "[[Insurrectionist|Innie]]-lover". In response to Lasky disobeying an order he felt was not sensible, she responded that "Doesn't have to make sense. Just follow it." However, the threatening situation during the evacuation of the academy quickly caused her to put her own safety ahead of the adherence to the chain of command.
