GALATEA
Canon/Non-Canon- Canon.
Birth Name- Galatea.
Secret Identity- None.
Nicknames- Tea.
Gender- Female
Age- Appears twenty, actually five.
Race- Kryptonian, cloned from one anyway.
Alliance- Has been left to her own devices.
Alignment- Bad.
Citizenship- Villain.
Physical Appearance- Being a clone means Galatea could pass as a certain super-girl's sister. At 5'7 and with the womanly curves that befit someone of her superiority, Galatea carries herself with an air of confidence that exudes power. Her silky blonde hair is cropped at a short angle, framing wide blue eyes and thin nose nicely. Despite her violent endeavors Galatea remains unscarred, her lightly tanned skin smooth and unblemished. The toned figure does not come without work and she is careful to keep up her form and in turn keep up her power. While Tea does not believe in excesses like jewelry she does wear light amounts of makeup. Dark eyeliner accentuate her eyes while some color on her full lips makes Tea's rare smile even more dazzling.
Uniform- Keeping her identity hidden is not much of a concern for Galatea. As such she wears no mask, going about her tasks with a boldness that speaks for itself. The all white, legless, body suit is somewhat misleading of her ne'er-do-well ways. Long sleeves are the most covering part of the suit, and white gloves and ankle boots keep the simple theme. Gold bracelet belt finishes off her polished look by copying off some other supers.
Outer Personality- Though she has been aged to the physical maturity of a twenty-something, Tea is still lacking in emotional maturity. Essentially a spoiled child with the super powers of a Kryptonian always on the lookout for the next adrenaline rush. Her training covered little in the way of morals, leaving her with no inner compass to tell her when she's gone too far. Though intended to be the perfect soldier, Galatea's distaste for following orders and a quick temper make her difficult to control. In Teas mind there is nothing she cannot do, her blunt and aggressive nature making her less than socially graceful.
Inner Personality- Contrary to popular belief, clones have feelings too. Deep, deep down Galatea has an intense insecurity about being a clone. Being a copy of someone, who she knows she is better than, irks Tea to no end. She wants to be the one and only, not a version of another. Because she has received little in the way of kindness or respect she has no idea how to give it, instead assuming that all creatures are lower than her until proven otherwise. While afraid to admit it Tea yearns for some connection with someone like her, though less powerful than her.
Powers/Abilities- Since she was cloned from Kara, Galatea shares most of her super powers. Enhanced strength to the point of surpassing Kara, flight, super-speed, advanced hearing, and heat vision top off the list of gifts Galatea was created with. However despite being near-invulnerable, able to shrug off the average beating from a telephone pole or rockslide, she is especially susceptible to high volts of electricity and fire. Kryptonite also has an adverse affect on her, weakening Tea so that her super powers are rendered useless.
Weapons- She carries no extra weapons.
Gadgets and Gizmos- Has no gizmos.
History- Galatea's beginning was fairly average for a clone. With a sample taken from Supergirl after she had been treated at STAR Labs for an injury, Dr. Hamilton kept it until commissioned to use it. Artificially aged to be in prime physical shape and taught all the things a human-weapon needed to know she had no real life outside of the lab. Small missions began her career, dealing with enemies of her funder and stealing items for his use. Then the dreams started, always the same girl who looked like Galatea but who did very different work. They were more like nightmares for Tea, waking her in the middle of the night and haunting her during her work.
Eventually Galatea shared this information with her creator, who in turn relayed the problem to his over-seers. Because Supergirl was investigating the phenomenon of her dreams, having seen the secret work Galatea was doing, Kara was deemed a threat and needed to be silenced. Happy to tie up any loose ends that were ruining her job Tea began following the other supers trail. Upon finding out that Supergirl had talked to General Hardcastle, who had told her everything he knew, Galatea killed him.
Eventually Galatea caught up with Supergirl. With her allies elsewhere Tea gained and kept the upper hand, her enhanced age making her body and abilities more mature. All was well until Kara's friends detonated the building Tea had been thrown into. Before she could recover and get out she was overcome by the force of the building falling and the intense heat.
Luckily the Labs grabbed her and took her back for treatment. It took a long time for her to recover and gain her old strength back. As Tea was beginning to prepare to take up her old assignments the heroes of the world confronted the company responsible for her and ordered them to stand down. With no need for a super human weapon Galatea was released on her own. No orders to go by left her to follow her instincts, robbing and fighting the urge to resist the high morals Kara gave her.
RPG sample It would be nice if she could say home sweet home if the motel room didn't reek of mildew or was a little less drafty. Granted these things were of little concern to Galatea, it was just a place she could hide out in between jobs. Or rather tasks, as no one put her up to robbing the bank and
Name- Bee.
Randomness- I paint.
