Just my 2 cents on her sociopath personality trait. While I think that what you have written is true I think she that the machiavellianism personality trait would fit more (no expert on that just read about it some time ago and remembered it again when I started reading the novel so the next points are me comparing it with the wikipedia article)

detach themself from conventional morality to decieve and manipulate - true (Arene, try to get conections in the war college to zettour)

(high Mach) Never tell anyone the real reason you did something unless it is useful to do so - all the time as far as I am (vol 2)

cold shelfishness and pure intrumentality - true as far as I know

(high Mach) pursue her goals in duplicitous ways - true like the time she got her silver wings assault badge

the rest of tthe motivation paragraph in wikipedia is also true for a high mach

The next paragraphs in wikipedia are not something I actually understand (not my area of expertice) but a few paragraphs down is an anlaysis to machiavellianism in the workplace so I'll list them here and compare them

maintainig power - true both before and after he reincarnated

harsh management tactics - true both before and after reincarnation

manipulative behaviors - I don't know about before but after the reincarnation definitely true

I know that my comment isn't realy convincing but I hope it is at least enough so that someone with a deeper understanding in the psychology department analyse the behavior and correct me or the article.
