Origin
Born to the then leader or Prime Eternal of the Eternals, Zuras and his wife Cybele, Azura's name was changed to Thena as part of a treaty with the Olympic gods to honor Zeus and his daughter Athena.

After Zuras was killed in an altercation with the Celestials over the judgment of humanity, Thena was chosen to rule the members of her race who remained on Earth.
