Princess Diana of Themyscira, better known as Wonder Woman (also known as Diana Prince) is one of the protagonists of the DC Universe, appearing as the titular main protagonist of the franchise of the same name, and one of the main protagonists of the Justice League franchise.
She is an ancient Amazon who fights crime with aid from her bullet-proof wristbands, magical-lasso and superhuman-strength, and the ability to fly. She is also a founding member of the Justice League.
She was created by William Moulton Marston and H.G. Peter, and first appeared in All Star Comics #8 in October of 1941.
Originally a goddess and princess of the Amazonian people, Wonder Woman first appeared in All Star Comics #8 in October of 1941. Because of her prolonged-living ability she has fought Nazism in WWII, and now she protects "man's world" from the diabolical supervillains that threaten it constantly.
She was born and raised on Themyscira, an isolated island comprising of women. It's governed by a isolationist statute called Aphrodite's Law, which forbids men from setting foot on Themyscira under penalty of death.
Physical Appearance[]
Wonder Woman is a noticeably tall and fair-skinned woman with straight waist-length and flowing black hair, blue eyes, broad shoulders and is almost always seen wearing her signature patriotic garb. Her clothes aren't the most... modest of superheroes, showing as much and probably even more then Starfire and she is ageless and attractive in appearance, sporting a voluptuous slender yet curvaceous athletic buff curvy hourglass voluptuous and buff frame with a sizeable and sizable bust and well-toned yet muscular muscled athletic buff curvaceous curvy hourglass and voluptuous build. She wears a golden tiara which can be thrown to inflict damage, a strapless red chest-plate and bustier held with a golden eagle crest and brace of gold resembling two w's above it, reflective silver gauntlets around her wrists, and the famous Lasso of Truth which hangs from her belt when not used, and rests on her hip. She has red boots with a white stripe on the front side known as the high heels and a blue bikini briefs/bottom/underwear with white stars on it. Her eye irises are a pale shade of blue and she adorns a pair of golden star earrings. This design comes from a hybrid of the old and current designs.
Powers and Abilities[]
Being a princess from a distant and hostile anti-male world, Wonder Woman possesses the following abilities and superpowers:
Supersonic Flight: Like Superman, she can fly faster than sound itself.
Experienced Martial Artist: The fighting abilities and skills of Wonder Woman are hard to put up a fight against.
Enhanced Reflexes: Wonder Woman is able to react quickly to an enemy's attack.
Enhanced Endurance: This Amazon Princess is able to take massive hits and still go strong afterwards.
Superhuman Agility: Her speed is unmatched by many of her enemies.
Truth Inducement: Using the Golden Lasso, she can force her enemy bound by it to tell the absolute truth.
Longevity: Like the rest of her kind, Diana is capable of living for hundreds of years.
Demigoddess Empowerment: She grows considerably stronger when borrowing the almighty powers of the deific goddesses Hera, Hestia, Hermes, Demeter, Aphrodite and Athena. Using these abilities does not make her nigh-omnipotent, but a formidable opponent nonetheless.
