She's not the biggest antagonist but she's definitely an antagonistic force. Evera Kyŏng-Bennett

I really like this character! She is very well rounded and detailed. I have two things, You said she was not the most intelligent, yet she has the education to be a researcher and learned some fields of science? The other thing is that you said her favorite food is tea, what type specifically? As an avid tea lover myself, I know that there a numerous types with various effects. There are ones to calm you, give you energy, help you with health problems, aid with sleep, there is even a type you can get high of of! Lastly I'm honestly just wondering what is her voice like? Is it like dough? Soft to the touch despite being tough and strong, or is it honey? Smooth, slippery, and sticky, causing you to become stuck in it?
Just some thoughts. :)

She's a well-rounded person, but I'm not sure Evera has the poise of an antagonist. I love that she can control a crowd, but she doesn't seem intimidating enough as a person.
I mean, she seems less of a villain and more of a side character.
She needs more verve. More 'oomph.' Something to make her formidable.

Well she's an antagonist, not a villain. She represents the bigger antagonist (the Board of leaders). The biggest antagonist is something else entirely. I feel like if I made her more formidable, then she'd take on her own agenda instead of the Board's agenda.
