*Ilana is an outspoken and earnest princess, her dedication to help others has made her a hero to her people, giving them hope in even the most dire of situations. Above all, she believes in following the rules in order to show her potential as a leader.

However, upon transitioning from Galaluna to Earth. Ilana begins facing the difficult realization that her personality is the reason no one at school is willing to befriend her or take her seriously, placing her on the low rung of the social ladder of the Earth high school, as her ambitious mindset is considered abnormal to her classmates. Additionally, her manner of speech is very high class and somewhat naive, which confuses many around her. Because she is used to being beloved and "getting whatever she wants", she shows jealousy toward people more popular than her, like Lance, and is confused by the other students' views of Lance's anti-social characteristics being what they respond to more positively.

Ilana has a very caring nature as she feels content whenever she sees other people happy, being willing to do what she can to help solve another individual's problem the moment she senses or sees they are in distress, refusing to back down until she is able to bring a smile onto their face. Ilana is more than capable of defending herself in order to not be taken advantage of or looked down on. She is committed to anything she puts her mind to, but is oftentimes unaware of when she over commits, resulting in her embarrassing herself and leaving her plans in failure.

Despite her years of interacting with others for diplomatic arrangements and royal affairs, Ilana realizes during her time on Earth that she has never had the opportunity to live and experience the normal aspects of a person's young life, such as learning to simply socialize with others to get to know them better and make friends, experiencing a first date and experiencing her first encounter with a boy who would feel romantically interested in her enough to compliment how pretty she was and bring her flowers.

Overtime, as she continues to spend time with Octus and Lance, she learns to ease up on her strict upbringing, being willing to bend the rules in case of emergencies and becoming inspired to experience the simple things in life, such as a first date, which she planned to experience the moment she returns to town near the end of "The Demon Within".

While on the battlefield, Ilana is described as righteous and tenacious and won’t give up until a wrong is made right. However, she is a little stubborn in accepting that things cannot always go her way as she simply does not wield the same experience others have, such as Lance and his experience as a soldier. Ilana tends to argue with Lance often as a result of their widely different views and personalities, however, just like Lance, she does learn to make amends for her behavior and is willing to learn how to better cooperate, with the help of Octus acting as the mediator to provide a voice of reason between the two so they can stop arguing and start learning how improve their teamwork through proper communication.

Ilana is afraid of disappointing those whom she perceives as people who abide by the rules and regulations for the greater good, such as teachers. Although she is typically courageous, Ilana is most fearful of losing her people and her father to the Mutraddi invasion, haunted over the possibility of returning home too late to help and discovering that everyone and everything has been obliterated. As she continues to view Octus and Lance as part of her family, she additionally becomes fearful over the possibility of losing the both of them if she is not careful.

As seen in the episode "Disenfranchised", it's also shown that Ilana has a love for sports. Being on the school soccer team, she is an impressive player as she is able to maneuver the ball perfectly fine and can even catch the ball between her feet to jump over her opponents to avoid them.*
