== History ==
She is the widow of Lee Abbott, with whom she had four children, Regan, Marcus, Beau and an unnamed infant, respectively. After the Death Angels invaded Earth, Evelyn's primary obstacles were the physical challenges of pregnancy and preparing for the harsh reality of raising a child in a world where survival required silence. On Day 473 of the invasion, Lee was killed after the family's farm was attacked, sacrificing himself to save Regan and Marcus, leaving Evelyn to raise their children on her own. After Regan discovered that her hearing aid emitted a frequency that weakened the creatures, Evelyn was able to kill the remaining Death Angels with a shotgun.
After the attack, Evelyn and her surviving family left their farm and attempted to find a new place to stay and evade the creature. They shortly came across Emmett, a friend of the Abbotts before the invasion, who invited them into his shelter for the night. After Regan ventured off on her own to find an island with more survivors, Evelyn begged Emmett to bring her back. He set out to do so, but eventually decided to help Regan find the island, which the two succeeded in doing. Back at Emmett's shelter, Evelyn, Marcus and her newborn son were attacked by a creature, but thanks to the efforts of Emmett and Regan, a signal was broadcast using Regan's hearing aid that weakened the creature and allowed Marcus to kill it.}
