Background
Princess Koriand'r of Tamaran was the second of three children. Her older sister, Komand'r was the first in the line of succession, but she was crippled by a childhood illness that robbed her of her natural Tamaranian ability to convert ultraviolet light into flight energy. Therefore, she was deemed unworthy to be queen and the succession fell to Koriand'r. When both sisters were sent to train with the legendary Warlords of Okaara, the bitter Komand'r ran off, allying herself with the Citadel. They used Komand'r's information to successfully invade Tamaran, and King Myand'r turned Koriand'r over to the Citadel to ensure peace.
Koriand'r endured six years of torture and sexual abuse until she and Komand'r were both released to the Psions for experimentation. Largely sadistic scientists, the Psions performed a deadly experiment on both sisters to see just how much energy their Tamaranian bodies could absorb before exploding from the overload. During the procedure, forces loyal to Komand'r attacked the Psion ship to rescue her, and while the Psions were distracted, Koriand'r broke free using her new ability of starbolts (destructive blasts of solar energy) acquired through the experimentation. Against her better judgment, she decided to free Komand'r who was still absorbing energy. However, far from grateful, Komand'r struck her sister down with the same - but much stronger - starbolt power and had her restrained for later execution. Koriand'r escaped and eventually found her way to Earth, where she gained the help of the Teen Titans. She chose to remain with the team and took the name Starfire, and quickly formed a romantic relationship with Dick Grayson, then - as Robin - the leader of the team.
Power Page
- Tamaranean Physiology: Starfire's powers are largely derived from her alien physiology; her body constantly absorbs ultraviolet radiation and converts it to energy, which can be used for a variety of purposes.
- Energy Absorption:: She can also absorb the myriad radiation types from other lifeforms.Her species being powered by the Ultraviolet radiology given by stars and suns. She once used this application of her power to weaken a group of Kryptonians who otherwise required solar radiation to maintain their superhuman abilities.
- Enhanced Vision: Due to her alien physiology, Kory has a better eyesight than the human race.
- Flight: Starfire possesses a flight capability which leaves a distinctive energy contrail behind, looking as if it is coming directly from her hair.
- Interstellar Travel: Starfire has also been stated to have flown light years through space in short amounts of time.
- Starbolts: The solar absorption experiments performed on her by the alien Psions granted her the amazing power to channel and project that same energy into destructive blasts called "starbolts". Hyperion described Starbolts as highly concentrated solar energy that possessed incredible power. Starfire also has the power and ability to unleash all her stored energy into a pseudo-nova blast. It is believed to be as hot as the sun itself, and so only used in dire situations.
- Superhuman Durability: Starfire can withstand more than a regular human, able to take on many blows that could kill people on Earth.
- Superhuman Strength: Her strength has been enhanced to a superhuman degree.
- Linguistic Assimilation: She is also capable of assimilating other languages through physical contact with another person. She learned English by kissing Dick Grayson.
- Hand-to-Hand Combat (Advanced): Starfire is also extremely proficient in armed and unarmed combat, having been trained in those arts by the Warlords of Okaara.
