Janeva is a minor character in Horizon Zero Dawn, and is the warden of the Carja prison known as Sunstone Rock.
History
When starting out as a soldier, rumors about Janeva's gender circulated among the other Carja. In response, Janeva threatened to break their arms, which proved effective at shutting down the soldiers' gossip "once enough arms had been broken."
Janeva eventually joined Sun-King Avad's honor guard, and was later assigned to the position of warden at Sunstone Rock. Avad noticed that Janeva generally believed criminals were beyond saving, thus he personally appointed Janeva to command the prison as a lesson in the power of rehabilitation.
