Just going to post this now, actually. Still need the sample post, but otherwise I hope she's okay. I decided to make her a little different from the DCAU version, partially in the hopes that she eventually reforms and becomes Power Girl but we'll see how things work out. XD
• Character You Would Like to Play: Galatea
• Real Name: Galatea, although occasionally uses the pseudonym "Karen Starr".
• Canon or OC: Canon
• Character Alignment: Villain
• Appearance/Costume:
In costume. Due to her intended purpose as a weapon, she doesn't own much in the way of casual clothes.
If she does, it'd probably be something like this. Despite the fact that she's smiling in both those picture, don't expect her to be doing much of that; her expression is usually either blank or angry.
• Origin/History of Your Character: Unlike more people, Galatea wasn't born. She was made to order. Developed by Project Cadmus, an organization who believed that those with superpowers were a threat to national security and needed to be contained, she is a clone of Supergirl artificially aged to her physical prime and created to serve as a weapon to take down any rogue metahumans. That was all she was ever treated as, a weapon. In the eyes of all but one of the scientists who made her, she was just a tool for them to use against those with superpowers, and not a real person. The way she was treated was simply abominable, too: when she wasn't out on missions she was kept inside a room bathed in artificial red sunlight to keep her in check, and all her life she had been indoctrinated and practically brainwashed into believing Cadmus's beliefs. Eventually, Professor Hamilton, the one man who treated her like an actual living creature, could take it no more. Risking his career, he ended up setting things up so that Galatea could escape and be free from Cadmus's control. Confused by her new surroundings and still unable to forget the doctrines of Cadmus, she has tried her best to maintain a normal life, but such a thing is currently impossible for her. In the end, when she's not being duped by supervillains into helping them commit crimes, she's been attacking metahumans on instinct, unable to shake off her mental conditioning.
• Powers and Abilities:
•• Superhuman physique: As a Kryptonian, Galatea gains superhuman abilities whilst under a yellow sun. Her strength and stamina is far beyond human limits, and her body is nigh-impervious to harm. Aside from the most excessive of force, her only real weaknesses are the radiation emitted by Kryptonite, and magic, which she possesses no special defences against. In addition, her speed and reflexes are far greater than that of any human, although her running speed still pales in comparison to her flight speed. She will begin to lose her powers if she is removed from yellow sunlight for a prolonged period of time, and red sunlight will instantanteously remove all of her superpowers as long as she is under it.
•• Flight: Galatea is able to fly unaided, at such speeds that she can easily break the sound barrier.
•• Super Senses: Just like her body, Galatea's senses are all honed to superhuman levels. Of most note is her vision; not only is she able to see things from miles away, but she also possesses both x-ray and heat vision.
• Weapons: N/A
• Supporting Cast: Project Cadmus, specifically Professor Hamilton (her father figure) and Amanda Waller (head of Cadmus). Most of them aside from Hamilton are currently after her head.
• Other: Due to being created to act as a weapon, Galatea is not used to showing emotion. Usually, her expression is either blank, but she can be easily angered due to not knowing how to react to a lot of things. She is used to taking orders; as such, she is easily duped and somewhat gullible, especially if the one giving her orders has no metahuman abilities. On that note, as she was designed to fight rogue metahumans, she currently finds it rather difficult to remain calm around them due to her conditioning. It only takes a small spark for her to lose her temper with them.
