I mean, being connected to canon characters isn’t inherently bad. If she’s a membernof the White Fang there’s no reason why she can’t have interacted with Afam and Blake and Sienna and Ilia at some stage.

The types of relationships you should shy away from are romantic, familial, mentoring, and close friendship. Keep the oc as bypassers who may have said a few words or been under their leadership but didn’t particularly stand out to them. Totally avoiding a character simply because they’re canon is just bizarre, because that’s not how life works if you’re in the same class or job or revolution.
