[b]Supergirl[/b] [i]aka[/i] [b]Lana Kent[/b] / [b]Kara-El[/b] [hider=| Origin & Backstory |][b]Early Life[/b] The House of El’s history is one comprised of hope, wisdom, and faith. This is something Kara-El knew as she looked to her father, Zor-El. Zor was the parallel opposite of his brother despite them once agreeing on where krypton needed to go; Jor-El being more of a traditionalist and Zor-El falling into transhumanist beliefs. Perhaps this is to say why the two El’s became distant and ignorant of each other and their families. It wasn’t until his daughter Kara’s sixth birthday when his world was truly shaken when his wife was seemingly assassinated on a trip to the nearest city, Argos. Zor didn’t know what was worse: that his wife was murdered or that his young daughter saw the entire thing. Irregardless, Zor vowed to remove himself and his daughter from this world as they soon retreated to his rural home. After her mother’s death, Kara-El found herself in an environment that was shaped around her father—at such a young age she had not even came to terms with what she had saw nor how to move past it. The next few years for her were all planned subsequently by her father who blamed the way their utopic society was falling apart slowly but most certainly. With his daughter in mind he began to toil with her genetics in proven theory in the guise of medical checkups: increasing her brain functions, her immune system, how her body and mind adapted to a scenario or environment, and her perceptive capability. This would prepare her for life on Earth and life among unpredictable archaic aliens. Kara didn’t understand why she would in time pick up on information from archives faster and at a higher level or why she never felt sick—but she didn’t think much of it as she moved forward ignorant of what was to come. Kara-El’s fate was altered as her father doomed her to life away from krypton—away from everything that she had ever known. The last daughter of krypton was placed in a hyperbolic sleep and placed in a illegally developed spacecraft destined to make sure that the House of El and more importantly, Kara, lived to see the next cycle. This starship would drift in space as it literally froze her in time until it landed in the star system known as Sol. Equipping her with a robotic AI with a recorded log from himself, he hoped Kara could make it out there with what he had given her. Much like Kal-El, Kara-El had been designated towards the planet known as Earth. However, due to a variety of complicated events she would never reach Earth… at least, not until Kal-El who at this point has fashioned himself as the Man of Steel—Superman finds her in a very bad way. [b]The Supergirl from Krypton - 2013[/b] The discovery of Kara-El was seen as an exceptional link to Kal-El’s past and the real difficulty was getting the female kryptonian to adapt to the new world nearly ignorant of everything that she should have of known about. Through extensive education as well as lengthy conversations with her cousin she found herself understanding more and more—the most difficult being the archaic civilization of Earth society and the notion of “superpowers” as Kal had called them. The most surprising out of everything however was that Kara didn’t have trouble understanding the duality of Clark Kent and Kal-El as the young Kara theorized it was in the nature of self-preservation which is something she completely understood. When it came time for Kara to create an “alter ego” for practice, she picked two names that resonated with Clark’s stories—Lana and Kent. This would come into awkward straights months later when she incidentally met Lois Lane, who believed “Lana Kent” to be the daughter of Clark and some “smallville yokel” he had a fling with in his teenage years. This brought much complications for Clark as Kara ended up being enrolled at a public school in Metropolis after securing her identity legally through Batman’s channels of ability to do so.[/hider] [hider=| Character Notes |]To be expanded on.​[/hider] [hider=| Powers & Abilities |]​Kryptonian Physiology: Under the effects of a "yellow" sun, The average Kryptonian possesses the potential for super strength, super hearing, flight, near-invulnerability, and enhanced vision.

Genius Level Intellect: Kryptonians, though otherwise completely human, were superior both intellectually and physically to natives of Earth. Supergirl who lived on Argo City for some time learned much about science and technology. Supergirl excels in engineering. It is also said that her father's genetic engineering of Kara has made her more intelligent than the average kryptonian. Eidetic Memory: Kara has a enhanced-photographic memory which also entails a "sponge effect" on information visually or sonically absorbed. This is a byproduct of genetic conditioning by her father.
