Vivenna is an awakener who was a princess of Idris on Nalthis.

Childhood and schooling

As the first daughter of the king of Idris, Dedelin, she was trained to marry the God King of Hallandren from a young age. At the age of twenty-two, she was to be sent to T'Telir to marry him. However, Dedelin's love for his first daughter caused him to instead send Siri, whose disobedience to traditional Idrian humility angered him.

In T'Telir

Vivenna left her home and attempted to rescue Siri from her marriage with Susebron.[1] After arriving in T'Telir, she looked for the Idrian's informant, Lemex. So she met Denth and Tonk Fah, who were posing as mercenaries, and led her to Lemex, who had not advised her father that he was deathly ill. Before his death, Lemex transferred his Breath to Vivenna against her will, bringing her to the Third Heightening. Lemex' mercenaries told that their contract with Lemex lasts and she was their new employer. With their help Vivenna spent many weeks in T'Telir stirring the Idrian community into a rebellion against the Court of Gods. She was saved by Clod, Jewels' Lifeless, after being attacked by the authorities.

After inciting rebellion, she came to the realisation after being kidnapped by Vasher that she had been manipulated by the mercenaries seeking to "help" her. On the run, she became a drab to avoid detection in the Idrian slums, where she was forced into poverty. She kept a shawl that held the Breath she still owned.[2]

Abilities

She was trained to be an Awakener by Vasher, who rescued her from a group of mercenaries in the slums. She and Vasher attempted to undo her original intentions of attacking Hallandren, instead speaking to the common people of opposing war between Hallandren and Idris. After Vasher was captured by Denth and Tonk Fah, she helped free him and gave her Breath to him in the conflict. As part of the Idrian royal line, she also has the ability to change her hair colour and length.[3]
