Personality
Hudson is a composed individual with a pragmatic perspective. He believes, through well-defined laws and regulations, all solutions can be dealt with. Unlike the friendly and kind Nansi, Hudson tends to speak with a tone of iron, which includes being incredibly blunt and never expressing any emotion. When Division 12 misbehaves or gets carried away with their antics on and out of the battlefield, Hachi helps Nansi mediate and discipline them. Hachi often gives Division 12 a brief lecture on how any distortion could affect their ability to pilot a Summon, which could endanger Astoria and the players. Hudson is stern with Division 12 and refers to them by their code numbers rather than their avatar names. Hudson is loyal to the academy and abides by Headmaster Newton's orders. He takes his duties as a combat instructor seriously and pays ample attention to the trainees of Division 12 to make sure they remain compatible. He is reasonable going about everything, staying calm and even-handed in all situations. He's not indifferent towards them and will offer them solutions to solve any obstacle, both professionally and personally, that bothers them and even considers their health. He also shows concern for any trainee subjected to 'pruning' if they show any signs of incompetence.
