Like her parents and brother [[Quintus Caecilius Iucundus|Quintus]], Evelina was spared from Pompeii's destruction by [[the Doctor]]'s timely intervention. Her [[psychic]] abilities had vanished with the [[Pyrovile]]s (the Doctor explained that her ability to see the future was due to [[Mount Vesuvius]]' eruption being so powerful that it cracked open a 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. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Fires of Pompeii]]'') | 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. | ||
