Evelyn

Template:Q Template:Infobox Character Evelyn was a retired explorer and an old colleague of Cassandra Morgan. While she only appeared for a moment in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, she played an important part in both Sam and Nathan Drake's life.

Biography

Background

In her youth, Evelyn was celebrated historian, featured on magazines and having a vast collection of artifacts and relics. In her old age, she had strained relationship with her son Edmund but often sending alimony to his family in order to rekindle with him despite his protest. One of the main reason Edmund got mad at her is she didn't show up at her husband funeral.

Events of Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

Evelyn bought Cassandra's journals in an auction after Cassandra died. Later, Samuel and Nathan Morgan broke into her house hoping to find their mother's things, sneaking through her mansion. After the two brothers found what they were looking for, Evelyn appeared and held them at gunpoint, and told them that she had already called the police.

Sam covered Nathan to protect him and tried to bargain with the old lady; He would stay if Nathan would be allowed to leave. During the talk, he accidentally revealed that they were in fact Cassandra's sons, which caused Evelyn to lower her gun. After telling the boys about their mother, the police arrived outside.

Evelyn promised to deal with the police, but suffered a fatal heart attack before she could even leave the room. The boys then escaped the mansion and the police.

Weapons

Evelyn briefly wielded a Jackal — the first and only time it's seen in singleplayer.
