Yeah, her sheet looks good. All she needs now is an appearance and you'll be good to go.
I agree, the finished product is quite nice. Strix is accepted.

Mat, your sheet is progressing nicely. But Arachnid needs to have some kind of personal shortcoming that makes a team dynamic an interesting proposition. Sure she has a checkered past but that doesn't really mean much if she has no personal flaws now. And I personally think her super-strength is a bit too high, especially since currently the only people stronger in the RP are a Superman-type and a gargantuan mass-changing metal man. That much strength in a highly agile form almost makes all the other melee-types besides Neutro look superfluous. Her strength should be downgraded to be more on the same level as fighters like SilverWolf and Blast Girl. Even without being able to lift five tons, she can get a lot of traction out of wall-crawling and shooting webs.

Also you're going to have to offer a plausible-sounding explanation for how she got her powers from those spiders. But it really might be easier just to say she's not a freak lab accident but that the Awakening occurred right after she was bitten by the spiders, and whatever changed the spiders combined with the completely mysterious forces of the Awakening changed her into one of the most unique Metahumans around. Food for thought.
I'm glad to hear it, take all the time you need.
Sounds good, I await the finished product.
And posted. Hopefully my post is an introduction worthy of Wonder Woman.

If there are any issues with the appearance of all the other heroes in the post, I'll edit it. I simply wanted to make the setting more vibrant by including other heroes in the story. They certainly won't be affecting the action too much. But if their presence is a problem, I'l fix it.
Wonder Woman, Princess Diana of the Amazons, dodged a swing from Hawkgirl's Thanagarian Mace. The Mace's Nth metal properties made even Wonder Woman's bracelets vulnerable to attack and as such a block with her bracelets was ill-advised. Wonder Woman side-stepped the swing and tried to sweep Hawkgirl's legs from under her, but the Winged Warrior avoided the attack by rising several feet in the air in front and above Wonder Woman. With a mighty battle cry, Hawkgirl flew forward while swinging her mace down at Wonder Woman, the weapon crackling with electricity. At the same time Steel flew at Wonder Woman from behind with incredible speed, his hammer poised to strike. Even one of those weapons would deal significant blows to the Amazon. Both in tandem could take her out of the fight. And Steel's armored suit could take quite a bit of punishment. She used that to her advantage.

With incredible speed, Wonder Woman backflipped away from Hawkgirl and landed behind Steel. She easily lifted the armored hero and placed him in front of her while she flew towards Hawkgirl, and neither of them realized what was happening until it was too late. Hawkgirl's mace struck Steel and shocked him eliciting an agonized yell from the hero. Then Wonder Woman raised her foot and kicked Steel into Hawkgirl, her super strength sending the two flying at Black Lightning and Ice who had been trying to line up shots at the heroine.

Black Lightning was hit by the two flying figures but Ice managed to dodge the airborne Justice Leaguers. She didn't dodge Wonder Woman's Tiara, which struck Ice in the chest. She staggered and instinctively fired a burst of ice at Wonder Woman who had been closing the distance with her flight. Wonder Woman rolled in mid-air to the side and closed the gap between them. Ice raised her other hand but the Amazon grabbed the limb and pulled Ice towards her and flung the cryokinetic over her shoulder. Ice slammed on the ground and lay groaning next to her teammates. Wonder Woman picked up her tiara and donned it. Then her ears perked and she swung around with her right arm raised high.

Katana's blade struck her bracelet with a clang. The expert warrior had been extremely quiet but she had made the slightest noise right before she tried to strike Wonder Woman. Diana knocked the blade out of Katanna's grip and caught the warrior's kick with her left hand. She swung Katanna around and threw her at Black Lightning, who Diana had noticed trying to rise to his feet. The hero had time to groan in frustration before he was knocked back to the ground with Katanna.

"Round over. Winner: Wonder Woman," the monotone Watchtower computer reported Diana's victory as the Amazon started helping her sparring partners back to their feet, beginning with Fire and Geo-Force who had been lying near where Black Lightning and Ice had stood. Diana had several cuts and scrapes from the fight but she was better off than most of her sparring partners. Whistles and cheers rang out as several heros who had assembled to watch the bout signaled their appreciation of the display. Booster Gold groaned audibly as he handed a wad of bills to a smiling Blue Beetle.

"Ah man."

"Told you, she'd win."

"I didn't know she was that good."

"Well, now you do," Blue Beetle whistled as he pocketed the money. Doctor Light crossed her arms and huffed, "I could take her." Booster Gold started cracking up as he said, "Are you serious? No offense Kim, you're good. But she's better. She just wiped the floor with seven Leaguers, none of whom are pushovers themselves. Sorry, after what just happened I just can't see it." Doctor Light simply said, "I could take her."

Booster Gold shrugged, "If you say so. Next time you can volunteer to be her punching bag."

Blue Beetle, "Now, Aquaman and Wonder Woman would be a good fight."

Booster Gold, "Who? The Fish-Guy? No way, he'd get creamed. Now Power Girl and Wonder Woman would be something to see. Can you imagine..."

"Imagine what Michael?" Wonder Woman had finished her good-natured conversation with the defeated team and stood right behind Booster Gold. The time-traveller whirled around to face her and started stammering, "Oh, uh- hi Wonder Woman. Yo-you heard that huh? R-right super hearing and all that. Forget sometimes. Well I was just saying that-"

"Wonder Woman to Monitor Room," the Martian Manhunter's voice filtered over the speaker system.

Wonder Woman touched her earpiece and said, "On my way, J'onn. Good day, Ted. Kimiyo. Michael." Wonder Woman gave Booster Gold a neutral look before walking off, leaving the hero from the Future sighing in relief while Blue Beetle laughed and Doctor Light smirked in amusement. Wonder Woman exited the training room and found her way into the massive Monitor Room, where large displays showed live views around the world. One of them displayed footage in Metropolis and Wonder Woman saw Clark, Bruce, Arthur, Oliver, and several others battling a robotic monstrosity.

The Martian Manhunter, standing at the center console, nodded at her, "Diana. We have a situation. An unknown alien machine appeared in Metropolis several moments ago. Our early warning systems and Batman's satellites detected it. It seems to have targeted Superman specifically and they may need some support finishing it off. I'm sending you in, that should be sufficient to counter this threat. Especially since you incapacitated half of the Leaguers we had on the station." The last was said with what Diana thought was a ghost of a smile.

Diana asked, "Unknown? We have no idea where it came from?" J'onn shook his head, "No. I consulted Orion, Starman, Adam Strange, Maxima, and Hawkman. None of them can determine the machine's origin." Diana furrowed her brow, "I have a bad feeling about this. Especially if it really is targeting Superman." J'onn nodded, "Indeed. But we can worry about that at a later time. You should assist Superman and the others."

Wonder Woman nodded, "Alright. It'd be too slow to use the Jet. Set the transporter to put me near Superman. We'll take it down together." Wonder Woman flew away from her friend and floated over the transporter pad. A bright white flash later and Wonder Woman appeared in the skies of Metropolis, next to Superman one of her mightiest allies and closest friends.

Wonder Woman smiled as the pair faced the robot, "Hello Superman. I can see things are progressing as they usually do. What's our plan of attack?"
He could be like the Question in the JLU show. He's the guy who finds all the threads that nobody else noticed, he's the better detective because he investigates even insane theories. He'd be one of the go-to guys to do work on the down low. And perhaps some kind of hacker.
Vita, Diversity for the win!

Dblade, that's a very interesting character concept and I would love to see the sheet. Perhaps Pariah and that character could be associates? That reminds me that I still have to make sheets for Pariah and Olympia haha.
You could have you character have Arch-Enemies and I'll use them, but a lot of the threats the team will face are new threats so keep that in mind.
Polyphemus, for shame Poly. Everyone should know who she is :P But thank you for the quality sheet and I look forward to roleplaying with you.

Wormgod, Ah I see. That makes sense. But I'd still like for there to be more explanation about how Phoebe's system works. And she should still have things that's she better at than others. Like artists or chefs. Or you could have her just be a jack of all trades, master of none. Just keep that in mind and you should be good.

Vita, I'll just say she's portuguese to meet my standards of diversity haha.
