'''Atara''' is Duke [[Telrii]]'s wife
==Appearance and Personality==
She is small, even among the Arelene. She has shoulder-length curly auburn hair, and she wears expensive clothing and jewelry. Her laugh is a "quiet twitter". [[Sarene]] observes that Atara's needlepoint patterns are always conservative and unimaginative.{{book ref|Elantris|14}} Her name is based on [[Aon#Ata|Aon Ata]], meaning grace or smoothness.{{book ref|Elantris|part=ars}}
==History==
Atara is likely the mother of [[Soine]], Duke Telrii's daughter who was taken by the [[Shaod]] and banished to [[Elantris (city)|Elantris]] eight years after the [[Reod]], although he publicly claimed that she had died of dionia.{{book ref|Elantris|14}} It is not clear if Atara was complicit in this cover-up.
Atara regularly participates in Queen [[Eshen]]'s needlepoint group along with a number of prominent Arelene women including [[Seaden]], [[Torena]], and [[Daora]]. She is present when Sarene joins a meeting of the group. Atara remarks that [[Shu-Korath]] is not very different than [[Shu-Dereth]], and Seaden warns her not to speak that way around priests. Sarene mentions that there are some notable differences in the two religions, but Atara brushes this off as irrelevant.{{book ref|Elantris|14}}
She is shocked when Sarene offers to teach the Arelene women to fence. When the group tells Sarene that Arelene men do not know how to fence either, Atara mentions that [[Raoden]] was one of the few exceptions to that rule.{{book ref|Elantris|14}} [[Eondel]] later helps teach the women to fence, and Atara is surprisingly adept with a practice sword, although she is flustered when Eondel touches her wrist while correcting her form.{{book ref|Elantris|17}}
Atara is seen at Telrii's side during a lavish party thrown at their mansion.{{book ref|Elantris|14}} She presumably becomes queen when Telrii is crowned as king after [[Iadon]]'s death.{{book ref|Elantris|44}} Her fate after Telrii's death{{book ref|Elantris|54}} is unknown.
