The Dwemer king Dumac, who had become Nerevar's close friend, presented them with twin blades of the highest Dwemeri craftsmanship. Though Nerevar was a generation older than her, they eventually got married. Vivec's prose suggests she was already a ruler when she met Nerevar, who was working as a guard for a merchant caravan at the time. She hailed from one of the Great Houses of Morrowind.

During the time of the Nerevarine Prophecies in 3E 427, she killed Sotha Sil and then died in a failed attempt to kill the Nerevarine.

She was also the most personable of the Tribunal and was well-known for walking among her people.

She resided in the temple city of Mournhold within the city of Almalexia, the capital of Morrowind, and was closely associated with House Indoril. They knew her as the source of compassion, sympathy, and forgiveness, the protector of the poor and weak, and the patron of teachers and healers.
