'''Bavadin'''
Bavadin is located on [[Taldain]], the planet of [[White Sand]].{{wob ref|4021}}. She is the only Shard there,{{wob ref|6875}} but she uses various personas to appear to people as different gods and goddesses.{{wob ref|3974}}{{wob ref|8902}}{{wob ref|8606}}
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.{{book ref|arcanum unbounded}} Khriss also identifies Bavadin using female pronouns, though Bavadin takes many different personas on Taldain.{{wob ref|3974}}

{{theory}}
The author of [[the Letter]] holds a grudge against both Bavadin and [[Rayse]] for unknown, but similar,{{wob ref|10630}} reasons. It is speculated that Bavadin and Rayse are partners, though nothing is confirmed. She was apparently of help to him in Splintering the Shards of Dominion and Devotion,{{wob ref|2614}} but the extent of this assistance and whether it was voluntary is not yet known.
== Trivia ==
* Among the original Vessels, [[Brandon]] is very fond of Bavadin.{{wob ref|6874}}
* Bavadin is not an [[Aimian]].{{wob ref|13080}}
