Ikora does possess her own dark side, particularly a vengeful one. When Cayde-6, her teammate and friend, was murdered by [[Uldren Sov]], Ikora simply refused to do nothing to avenge him, calling it cowardice. While Zavala also mourned his friend, he felt duty-bound to defend the Last City and thus refused to go out on a manhunt for the renegade Reef Prince, angering Ikora. However, when the Guardian who witnessed the murder vowed to take the head of Uldren, Ikora supported them and approved the mission to take the Reef by storm, kill Uldren, and his Scorned barons.

Despite this sense of seeking retribution for Cayde's murder, it doesn't darken her overall personality, as she remains open-minded and kind towards friends and allies. For example, despite the deep animosity between the Last City and the Fallen, she offered Mithrax and his House of Light sanctuary within the Last City, not only because Mithrax possessed the knowledge needed to combat the Endless Night but she saw the House of Light as an chance to lessen if not possibly end the bloodshed between humanity and the eliksni. For this, Ikora showed complete support towards Mithrax and his people, becoming angered when Lakshmi-2 and the factions denounced the House of Light and of her decision to ally with them, making attempts to remind the people of the Last City that humanity was once in the same position as the eliksni when the Warlords reigned. Most notably, she accepted Crow into the Vanguard despite his former identity as Uldren Sov. While she was wary of the dangers in the powers of Stasis, she nonetheless began to accept the view that it was a tool in the Guardians arsenal to protect the Last City.

Ikora serves as the head of Vanguard Research. Upon completion of the Red War campaign as well as the Curse of Osiris and Warmind campaigns during year 1, players were able to perform three Meditations per week which acted as replays of the story missions (though, as of year 2, this has been retired in favor of a Daily Heroic Story playlist). Finishing each meditation granted three Vanguard Research Tokens (which could also be earned on days that she incited Guardians to complete five Challenges on) to be returned earning faction gear: specifically, legendary versions of the armor worn by players during the Homecoming story mission.

As of [[The Witch Queen]], Ikora is the vendor where she allows the Guardian to grow their [[Light]] powers through Supers, grenades, melee abilities, aspects, and fragments by purchasing them with [[Glimmer]] and using the meditation device next to her.
