Adawathwyn is a former vice governor of Elendel under Governor Varlance.[2]

Adawathwyn is a Terriswoman and a Ferring of an unspecified type. She has curly brown hair[2] and dark brown eyes[3].

Adawathwyn outwardly appears to be just a token representative for the Terris people[2], but Varlance is in her pocket for most of his term.[3] He relies on her for most of his actions, and she frequently pushes him around on major decisions.

After Steris informs her of a bomb threat to Elendel, she establishes a Council to investigate it but manoeuvres it to exclude House Ladrian.[4] The Council consists only of three senators, Lord Cett, Lady Hammondess and Lady Gardr.

Adawathwyn is not happy when Constable-General Reddi invites Steris to the meeting anyway, as a subject matter expert.[3] When the Council proposes a war that Reddi is opposed to, she plans to use a draft} to force them. Her actions seem to benefit the Set but Steris believes she was secretly encouraged but not directly influenced by them.[3]

Her and the Council finally believe Steris after TenSoon, disguised as a police officer, reveals himself. Adawathwyn plans to use the Bands of Mourning to safely dispose of the bombs.[5] However, Tensoon reveals that the bands are drained, so Adawathwyn could not try the plan. Considering the destruction of the city imminent, Adawathwyn and the other Senators in the Council flee the city, leaving behind Steris and Varlance to evacuate everyone else.

After the crisis was over, Adawathwyn was fired by Governor Varlance.[6]
