'''Autonomy''' is a [[Shard|Shard of Adonalsium]] held by Bavadin.{{17s ref|post|335841
== History ==
Bavadin is first referenced in [[The Letter]]. The Letter's author, [[Hoid]], has a grudge against Bavadin and [[Rayse]].{{epigraph ref|sa1|23}} It is unclear whether Bavadin and Rayse are allies, or the Letter author has a different reason to have a grudge against Bavadin.
Bavadin is also referenced by Khriss in her notes on the [[Taldain System]]. Khriss writes that Bavadin supports a policy of strict isolationism for Taldain (to the detriment of Taldanian expatriates), while simultaneously being willing to meddle in the affairs of other worlds. Khriss also identifies Bavadin using female pronouns {{book ref|arcanum unbounded}}, though their gender is unclear.{{
