+'''Evelina''', daughter of marble merchant [[Lobus Caecilius]] and his wife, [[Metella]], was a young [[Roman]] woman living in [[Pompeii]] on the eve of its destruction in [[August]] [[79]].
 Evelina showed some precognitive abilities, and so was promised to the [[Sibylline Sisterhood]], a local cult of oracles influenced by the alien [[Pyrovile]]s, as a consecrated priestess.
-Like her parents and brother, [[Quintus Caecilius Iucundus|Quintus]], Evelina was spared from Pompeii's destruction by the [[Tenth Doctor]]'s timely intervention.

-Her [[psychic]] abilities vanished with the Pyroviles and the city - the Doctor explained that her ability to see the future was due to [[Mount Vesuvius]]' eruption being so powerful that it cracked open a [[Time rift|rift in time]] for a second and the effects echoed backward through time - so she was free to be an ordinary young woman once more and date, to her father's consternation.

-== Behind the scenes ==
-* The [[Caecilius]] family ([[Lucius Caecilius Iucundus|Caecilius]], [[Metella Caecilius Iucundus|Metella]] and [[Quintus Caecilius Iucundus|Quintus]]) were based upon characters used in the Cambridge Latin Course textbooks (Book 1), who were in turn based on actual historical characters, but Evelina was invented by [[James Moran]] so that she could be a member of the Sibylline Sisterhood.
