"Ahhh yes you again, come to ask for my Aid..."
The Goddess of War, Tact, and Craft indeed, many among Atharen hail her for their own. While some may think of her as a simple warlord's Goddess she is that and so much more. Think of the fighting couple who can't come to an agreement, or the smith who is making his finest sword, or even the child who wants to stick up to the neighborhood bullies. All could pray to an effigy or place a fine token upon her statue in reverie for this Goddess. As a person, Evitrix is neutral and a perfectionist-- always striving for balance through her cunning means. As what is the point of War but not to tip the scales in your favor? What is Craft if not perfecting the most balanced and honed item? With Tact one would need to know their opponent and know when to strike, a balancing act of the finest degree. No, this one doesn't act with chaotic energy, she moves her pawns when the time is poignant.

Depiction
Evtrix is the beautiful Goddess who never reveals her eyes. Her blind depiction, usually by a cloth but also seen as a sword, axe or sometimes a scale, isn't only constant but it's sacrilegious to depict her with her eyes shown. The point being that conflict is a blind ordeal, the winner can never be said until the dust settles and those who pretend to know or take bets on a winner are liars. The other constant being her many arms, sometime four, sometimes six, holding different objects of craft and war. The most obvious thing about her is that she is shown bare or with little clothing, as if she has nothing to hide. Those who pray to her say this is because her skin is stronger than any blade or blow, she needs not a piece of armor or clothing to protect her from any who would attack her. The more philosophical aspect of this is that conflict leaves everyone involved laid bare. None can walk out unscathed or changed after great disparity.
As mentioned, in her arms she may be holding objects. The most common of these being a black smith's hammer, a great feathered quill from an owl, a ledger, scales, an axe, and a severed head. Evitrix is usually sculpted into a statue but those who paint her give her lightly colored golden skin and dark hair.
