Apollo
Lunis is very close with her brother. While the two of them seem to bicker with each other quite often, they do it out of a place of love for each other.'''=== Iris === In the beginning of the series, Lunis was very close with Iris.

Queen Hesia
Pre-episode 5, Lunis only viewed Hesia as an authoritative figure. After learning that Hesia was her real mother, she felt sadness and anger, but soon realized that those emotions were misguided. Episode 11 and on, she loved her mother greatly and wanted to rekindle their relationship.

King Augustus
Pre-episode 5, Lunis only viewed Augustus as an authoritative figure. After learning that Augustus was her real father, she felt sadness and anger, but soon realized that those emotions were misguided. Not many scenes were shown between the two, but it can be inferred that she loved Augustus, and mourned his death.

Vesta
Vesta is Lunis' best friend, and the cat she is closest to next to Jackson. They support each other through anything, and have an overall positive relationship, even defending one another when the time is right.

Jackson
Lunis and Jackson immediately hit it off as friends, but had a rough patch in their relationship. Even though the two had a nasty fight, they forgave one another and became closer than ever. Lunis was heartbroken at his "death" and visited him regularly while recovering. She was one of the first to forgive him when everyone learned about his dark past. It's clear the two love each other deeply.

Vivian
Lunis and Vivian seemed to always have an unspoken tension between the two, but deep down Lunis pitied her for her parental neglect. Lunis even offered to help her when Vivian was attacking her, but after learning about Augustus' death, that concern faded into anger.

Caroline
From the scenes that we are shown, the two have a positive relationship.

General Dusk
At first, Lunis viewed Dusk as an authoritative figure, but over time the two became close. Dusk often reassured Lunis, and even became a maternal figure for her during her life. The two have a very close bond.

Freya
From the scenes that we are shown, the two have a positive relationship.

Lunis despises Ares for all the horrific things he's done to Iris, Hesia, Augustus, Jackson, Vivian, Apollo, and the Lights. She views him as scum, and wishes to see his reign end. She often cannot control her anger around him.

Vixy
Lunis used to trust Vixy, but after seeing the things she could do, she began to hate and fear her.

Personality
Lunis starts off the series easily irritable, often fed up with her brother's shenanigans. Even so, she seems to be calm and polite around those she cares about. She occasionally has a sense of humor, but through the series this is only seen a handful of times. She is unconfident in her abilities, and often lashes out when upset/stressed.

It is clear she struggles severely with her trauma, often acting negatively to those around her when having an episode. However, she can be calmed easily. If roles are reversed, she will always be there to comfort her friends.

She is fiercely defensive of her friends and her beliefs, sometimes a little too much.

As she ages, she grows more mature and controls her outbursts easier. Even if she seems upset through the series, it's clear she has a normally positive personality that has just been plagued by trauma.

Episode 1:
Lunis is listening to a story being told by Lucas and Iris right before leaving to go train as soldiers. She and her brother Apollo have a quick moment of banter with one another, before both of them leave to go get ready.

Lunis is rushing through the forest to get to the HR bases, but is quickly forced to a stop when she runs head first into Jackson. The two exchange brief banter, until Lunis' posse arrives, followed by Jackson's. Vivian and Caesar are introduced to Vesta and Apollo.

Lunis asks where Jackson, Vivian, and Caesar are off to and they reply that they are heading to Caroline. Before she knows it, Lunis is pulling Vesta away from attacking Vivian, and reassures her that if Vivian provokes her again, she can do whatever she wants.

Later in the evening, the group arrives at Caroline's quarters, but Lunis stays behind to ask her about Queen Hesia's strange behavior. This spooks Caroline, and Lunis can see that she is behaving oddly. Caroline awkwardly asks her to ignore it, and to go to bed, much to Lunis' confusion.

During the night, Lunis has a nightmare with several scary figures. She wakes up scared, confused, and out of breath from stress. As she goes outside to get some fresh air, she sees Apollo and Vesta sitting next to one another stargazing.

The next day, Apollo wakes up Vesta and Lunis abruptly. The two are still tired and scold Apollo for being so rude. After the group wakes up, they venture down to where Caroline is, and begin training. Caroline asks them questions about Light history, but Lunis just sits in the back with an unamused expression, clearly still tired.

Episode 4:
The group walks to the next trainee stations. Jackson and Lunis are having a conversation. While it was not seen in the actual episodes, Vivian made several insults to Lunis and Apollo about their family, which is now the point of conversation betwen the two. Lunis is unbothered by it, which sparks a deeper conversation.

Jackson makes a joke about Apollo to Lunis. The group must split into pairs, and Lunis and Jackson team up. After their mock-fight, Lunis comments on Vesta's fighting style, saying she "only gets like this when she's jealous", alluding to the situation from last episode.

Later on, Vesta excitedly tells Lunis that General Dusk is considering promoting her to battle lines, much to Lunis' approval. The group arrives at Sharp and Venus' training station, and Lunis is chosen as one of the three cats to be "spies".

As Lunis is racing through the forest, she runs into Vixy. When Vixy asks about Lunis' necklace, Lunis has an outburst, accidentally telling more than she should. This pleases Vixy, and when Vixy explains that Lunis is a weapon, Lunis becomes intrigued.

In the next scene, Lunis seems bitter at the King and Queen, clearly victim to Ares and Vixy's manipulation. She agrees to train with them in a few days, and she leaves to go find Iris.

Lunis arrives at her childhood home to confront her adoptive mother. Iris seems clueless about everything, but once Lunis reveals Apollo's wherabouts, Iris begins to get squirrely. Lunis' eyes are now red, revealing she has been given a variation of the Dark Curse. She explodes, screaming insults at Iris, but Iris defends herself and tells Lunis the reason for doing what she did. This shuts Lunis down, and she leaves angrily, telling her mother to Burn, and giving her a large scratch on her eye.

As Lunis is walking back, she hears the voice of Lucas. Quietly, she peers through the bushes, only to discover Ares and Vixy ambushing him. Lunis watches in horror as Ares and Lucas argue.

She tells Lunis that Iris did bare children, but with Ares, which sets Lunis off. Caroline firmly tells her that Iris was a victim of manipulation, and loved Lunis as if she were her own flesh and blood, while telling the rest of Iris' story. She tells her that Lunis needs to redirect her anger towards Ares, not Iris, and leaves her to grieve.

Jackson comes home to see Lunis sitting outside, and scolds her for disappearing. Lunis stays quiet, which concerns Jackson, and he eventually gets her to explain why she's upset.
