**Evenatra** is a [[:Threadwielder]]. She is known as **[[kavkem:mythology:Tamas̈elu]]** within the [[kavkem:mythology|kavkem pantheon]], where she fills the niche of the goddess of //qanu// (//life worth living//). She can be considered responsible for the creation of the [[:kavkem|kavkema]].

During most of the events described in //[[:A Thread Between The Stars]]//, she is effectively without [[:Thread]], a matter that has alienated her from most of the Threadwielder community - especially [[character:Jeneth]], who openly attributes the situation to reck- or carelessness on her part.

Her name is a stark portmanteau of the words //evenar// (grace) and //venat// (sky).

===== History =====

<blockquote>“With no sarcasm intended, I do assume [[character:Valcen|you]]'re meticulously informed, but humour me. What do you think happened here? Between [[character:Ysikary]] and Evenatra – and, I suppose, my humble self?”

“Ideological disagreements. Specifically, with your non-interventionist policy around the end of the Cretaceous; with your anti-bioengineering opinions; and ultimately with each other.”
<cite>A Thread Between The Stars: Satellites</cite></blockquote>

[[character:Ysikary]] and Evenatra together decided to rescue a significant chunk of Earth's biosphere over to [[:Upsilon Andromedae]], despite [[character:Jeneth]]'s concerns about the project.

Tragically, in her efforts to protect the kavkema from the [[:Nayabaru]] and from [[character:Terenyira]], Evenatra has likely made their situation worse - increasing Nayabaru desire to capture kavkema as to gain intelligence as to be able to deal with her, as well as increasing the punishment kavkema receive from the dominant culture for their support of her.((See //A Thread Between The Stars//, the //Satellites// chapter.)) Conversely, it's only her stubborn protection of the kavkema that endangers her. If she simply left the planet, she would have little to fear.

===== Danger =====

<blockquote>“I think we shouldn't go into this without vis advice. Vis exposure hasn't purely been Threadless, ve's had some years with Thread to deal with the weapon. If we make the same mistakes...” [...] “If we don't guard ourselves against past mistakes, we may not be as lucky as ve's been. I'm sure neither of us want to get first-hand enlightenment as to what happened to Ysikary.”
