[edit] Fictional character biography

Second generation Eternal. Very little revealed about her past. Wife of Zuras, mother of Azura (who later took the name Thena). Evinced no interest in participating in the great events of Eternals history, such as their encounters with the Celestials. Lived with Zuras for a time and raised Thena; retains maternal interest in Thena's welfare. Never felt comfortable in the society of her fellow Eternals; left their city of Olympia after Thena reached adulthood. Although technically the queen of the Eternals, she was never truly been interested governing them; after Zuras's death, was content to let Thena become the new ruler of Earth's Eternals.

Always had a great interest in nature, and has been mistaken for Gaea. Today, she lives by herself in a forest in Colorado, using her psionic powers to remain unseen.
