An earlier version of my comment went into more depth on the seven Christian virtues. I rejected it because I didn’t feel the mapping was all that good.
Courage/valor is traditionally identified with the classical virtue of fortitude, but I feel the emphasis there is actually quite different; fortitude is about acceptance of pain in the service of some greater goal, while Ialdabaoth’s valor is more about facing up to anxiety/doubt/possible future pain. In particular, I don’t think Openness maps very well at all to fortitude.
Likewise, the theological virtue of faith maps pretty well to conviction if you stop at that word, but not once you put the emphasis on resolve/grit/heroic effort.
Prudence could probably be inserted unmodified (though I think it could be named more clearly). Justice is a tricky one; I’m not sure what I’d do with it.
