Fictional character biography
Eviless is originally depicted as a slave driver from a subatomic world on Saturn. Following the DC Rebirth relaunch, Eviless is renamed Saturna and is the leader of the Crimson Men cult. She possesses necromantic abilities, such as forming black wings and controlling the dead.
Powers and abilities
Eviless does not have any superpowers, but skillfully uses a whip to control her subjects. At times, she has appeared to put herself into a deathlike trance at will by stopping her heart.
Post-Rebirth, Saturna has an array of magical necrotic abilities.
