My first built-from-scratch deck was a Sedris, the Traitor King deck, and I kept it until finally retiring it earlier this year (I think I had it for about 9 years).

When Commander Legends came out, Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist caught my eye. Scouts for the Empyrean Squadron is the deck I ended up with.

Ardenn is absolutely worth building around. Maybe try partnering him with Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix or Silas Renn, Seeker Adept .

I think purely thematically Jeska, Thrice Reborn HAS to be 002. You can def make a case for Tana, the Bloodsower, but I think Jeska is just a stronger choice.

As for 016...

Jeska, Thrice Reborn + Esior, Wardwing Familiar / Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker because of the whole Jian mythical bird story. Some sort of flying tribal (the Franxx can fly... I think... at least 002's can) or Vehicle Tribal.

Jeska, Thrice Reborn + Kraum, Ludevic's Opus could be the two of them becoming "one" towards the end of the show. Focus on Voltron-ing Kraum.

Jeska, Thrice Reborn + Silas Renn, Seeker Adept just because one's a dude, one's a girl, and each share their respective color palettes that the show has.

If you did go with Tana, the Bloodsower you could use Ardenn, Intrepid Archaeologist to go more of a dinosaur tribal route for those Naya colors and pack it with Gishath, Sun's Avatar and Zacama, Primal Calamity for flavor fun.

Silas Renn, Seeker Adept could make an interesting artifact creature aristocrats deck, making it a bit different from your Korvold deeck.

Malcolm, Keen-Eyed Navigator same kind of idea, also will help ramp into your 5 drop commander.

The only other partner that would give you blue and seems decent with Tevesh is Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix, which puts you into green as well but her ramping synergizes with Tevesh drawing cards a bit.

Maybe I am just blind but do you have a way to get Silas Renn, Seeker Adept to actually deal combat damage. Deck looks good except getting Silas Renn, Seeker Adept to connect for his ability. Also you have Flooded Woodlands and Insight I am guessing its for your play group / place?? Looks interesting though.

Megalomania, I was thinking of shaving down the colors to 3 using Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer and X partner. I cannot for the life of me come to a decision on which color to drop because they all have their different bonuses. Before Ichy was spoiled it was suggested to drop green for black. Red has the least presence so that's the direction I was going to go I think. That leaves:

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer + Ishai, Ojutai Dragonspeaker (Bant) for a go wide golem army w/ a side of keyword soup maybe. Or focus more one +1 counter/proliferate aspect.

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer + Silas Renn, Seeker Adept Sultai) offers additional GY synergy, perhaps focusing as well on +1 counters/proliferation?

Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer + Vial Smasher the Fierce (Jund. I know, red... ) for sacrificial artifact fodder cannon(?) but still able to amass lots of artifacts for a Hellkite Tyrant win.

Alternatively I have seen a Selesnya build using Ich-Tekik, Salvage Splicer + Rebbec, Architect of Ascension, but not sure how I feel about less colors. I'm sure there are probably other mono color partners to pair with Ichy but I have yet to explore them, same applies though about the reduction of colors.

I understand that you are likely not going for cEDH powerlevels, but Silas Renn, Seeker Adept is objectively the strongest pairing with rograhk simply because of the color pairing. Not memeimg here, rograhk is a top tier cEDH commander when paired with silas because he allows for the cmdr free spells on t1 without having to spend your entire turn on doing so as well as useful for saccing to things like Culling the Weak to really get a massive turn going. Just thought I should put this out there.

Both Armix and Keshkit are absolutely great :3 I decided to use Keshkit (or just swap Keshkit with Armix) as Partner commander with Silas Renn, Seeker Adept's Submit to the Matrix deck, just to have access to blue (I built Silas Renn as a solo commander, until Keshkit got spoiled), which enables me to use Time Sieve for infinite turns with Thopter Assembly and 3 Tezzerets, which can easily ping opponents to death or steal their stuff.

I would add Skyclave Relic as another mana-rock with the Kicker ability to create 2 copies of itself, which would increase the effect of Armix's -X/-X ability. Also, Strionic Resonator is just a great card (with Lithoform Engine aswell) - it can copy Skyclave's ETB effect if it was kicked, so it creates 4 copies of itself.
Magewright's Stone - could be fairly nice with Keshkit
