History
Otherworldly Origins
Koriand'r is the second of three children born to Tamaran's ruling family. Komand'r, her older sister, was born deformed by Tamaranean standards. Unable to fly, she was deemed incapable to eventually rule the world as its Queen. The royal line was instead handed down to her younger sister, Koriand'r.
Komand'r resented Koriand'r's eventual ascension and hated her sister. A deep rivalry grew between the two with Komand'r plotting to harm her sister in any way possible.
In time, the sisters were sent for training to the Warlords of Okaara. There they would learn not only the art of combat, but the rules for governing. Tamaran was a planet of conflicting emotions. They embraced peace and love, but were quick to anger and fierce in war.
The conflict between sisters grew, and Komand'r finally left Tamaran and joined with her planet's greatest enemies, the Citadel. The Citadel already ruled the other 21 Vegan worlds, and only Tamaran was permitted its freedom. Until now.
The Citadel invaded peaceful Tamaran and quickly crippled its defenses. They demanded that King Myand'r turn over his daughter, Koriand'r, to the Citadel in exchange for peace. Myand'r accepted. His daughter would be sacrificed, but the paradise that was Tamaran would endure
Komand'r banished her sister into humiliating slavery for six harsh years. But during it all Koriand'r never gave up hope.
Eventually, Koriand'r and Komand'r were captured by the Psions, a race of soulless alien scientists who experimented on living beings. In an effort to see how much solar energy the body would endure before being destroyed, the Psions subjected the two sisters to endless grueling experiments. Unknown to the Psions, the Tamaranean body was capable of absorbing solar power - which gave them the ability to fly. Instead of destroying their captives, the Psions gave the sisters the ability to absorb the energy and then expel it in ferocious destructive blasts called Starbolts.
Enter: The New Teen Titans
The sisters escaped and Koriand'r eventually made it to Earth where she was found by a group of young heroes who would come to call themselves The New Teen Titans.
The newly formed group traveled to Tamaran and vanquished the Citadel and Psions, freeing Tamaran. Koriand'r returned to Earth with Robin, the leader of the Teen Titans and the man she came to love.
A Marriage of State
Later, Koriand'r was returned to Tamaran to learn that the planet was about to be plunged into a civil war. In order to keep peace between me ruling houses of Tamaran, Myand'r pledged that his daughter would marry Karras, heir to the ruling Southern continent. This would be a political marriage as both Koriand'r and Karras loved others.
Koriand'r went through with the marriage although it put a strain on her relationship with Dick Grayson, now the hero known as Nightwing. During this time, Koriand'r's sister Komand'r also seized control of Tamaran, with Koriand'r's parents acting as her advisors.
Koriand'r returned to Earth, and began to mend her relationship with Dick Grayson. Later on another trip to Tamaran, Karras was killed while trying to stop a group of terrorists.
The Titans Hunt
Shortly after this, current and former members of the Titans were hunted and captured by the Wildebeest Society. Deathstroke, Nightwing, Troia, Pantha, Phantasm, Arella and Red Star joined forces to track them down. Upon locating the captured Titans, the heroes were shocked to learn the identity of the leader of the Wildebeests was their own teammate, Jericho, who was now corrupted by the tainted souls of Azarath.
During the final showdown with the Wildebeest Society, Jericho and Raven were seemingly slain; Raven's mother Arella and Danny Chase died and merged with the purged souls of Azarath to become Phantasm.
Soon after, an evil version of Raven emerged; Her evil consciousness survived, and she found a mortal vessel to house her form. Raven was intent on planting the seeds of Trigon's unborn children into new vessels.
A Wedding Disaster
Afterwards, the Titans entered into tumultuous times; Members came and went, longtime friends were maimed or destroyed, as Dick tried to hold the team together. But his relationship with Starfire became strained, and problems in Gotham demanded Dick's attention. Impulsively, Dick proposed marriage to Starfire. The two almost wed, but the ceremony was interrupted by the dark incarnation of their former teammate, Raven. Her brutal attack on Starfire triggered changes in Dick and Kory's relationship. Starfire was implanted with a Raven "seed" which caused her to leave Earth and go on a spiritual journey and later, back to Tamaran. Unknown to Starfire, she was actually implanted with the ‘seed' of the good Raven, who influenced Starfire to leave earth – away from the clutches of evil Raven.
A New Life
When Starfire returned to Tamaran, she met and fell in love with a man named Ph'yzzon, a brave general. After a quick courtship, the Koriand'r and Ph'yzzon got married.
Meanwhile, Cyborg had merged his consciousness with the alien race known as Technis in an effort to save the dying race. Vic - now known as Cyberion - was reunited with his former teammates as an evil version of Raven tried to destroy her good self (which lay dormant in the body of Starfire). To ferret out Starfire, evil Raven incited a conflict in the Vegan star system. As a result, Tamaran was destroyed along with the Technis.
The Titans were able to destroy evil Raven utterly, and restore good Raven into a new spiritual golden body. Starfire decided to rebuild her culture on a new planet; many Tamaraneans were off-world during the explosion – enough to settle on a new planet dubbed New Tamaran.
When the Sun Eater ravaged the galaxy, the planet of New Tamaran lay in its path. An alien woman tried to warn the Tamaraneans, but Queen Komand'r was too short sighted and xenophobic to listen. Starfire believed the woman and tried to warn her fellow Tamaraneans. Komand'r labeled her sister Koriand'r a traitor and banished her. Starfire left the planet and was unable to prevent its destruction. New Tamaran was destroyed by the Sun Eater – along with many of the remaining Tamaraneans and Koriand'r's new husband, Ph'yzzon.
Reunited
Starfire aided the Titans again during the Technis Imperative conflict, which involved the Justice League as well as all Titans, past and present. The two teams eventually worked together to save the earth and former Titans teammate, Cyborg. After this adventure, the group decided to reform, and Starfire became a full time member of the Titans once again.
Starfire often found herself at odds with her fellow teammates. As in the past, her warrior ways conflicted with the group's ideologies. She was also very tentative around Dick Grayson, as they never had closure to their relationship.
Starfire received an urgent summons from her brother Ryand'r. Starfire and her fellow Titans became embroiled in a struggle between the remaining Tamaraneans and their hated enemies, the Gordanians, for possession of the planet, Karna. Tempest - using his ambassador skills - offered a solution: the Tamaraneans and Gordanians could share the planet of Karna. The Gordanians would allow them to stay; in exchange, the Tamaraneans would teach them new trades outside of slavery, and bolster their reputation in the galaxy. Both races agreed to these terms.
Koriand'r elected to remain on Karna and rebuild the culture of her people as Princess. She was able to bid a tearful farewell to Dick Grayson via a communiqué relay – telling him she would always love him.
Our Worlds At War
Shortly afterward, tragedy struck. During the "Our Worlds At War" crisis, a series of Imperiex probes destroyed Karna. This marks the third Tamaranean home planet that was destroyed. At that time, Starfire returned to earth.
Teen Titans
Soon after, a conglomerate known as Optitron offered to sponsor the Titans and Young Justice after summoning them to San Francisco. Before any decisions could be made, a mysterious cybernetic girl known as Indigo emerged from the future. Unwittingly, she somehow activated a rogue Superman android, seemingly resulting in the deaths of Troia and Omen. At Troia's funeral, Nightwing disbanded the Titans.
Members of Young Justice, especially Wonder Girl, felt responsible for the tragic deaths. This led Wonder Girl, Robin, Impulse and Superboy to form a new group of Teen Titans under the guidance of the more experienced Cyborg, Starfire and Beast Boy.
Starfire later left the Titans and joined the Outsiders at the request of Jade. When Troia gathered together a team of heroes for a space mission during the Infinite Crisis, she recruited Starfire. Although the mission was successful, Starfire was lost in space with Adam Strange and Animal Man for almost a year.

Powers
Known Powers: Koriand'r's Tamaranean heritage allows her to absorb solar energy and convert it to the power of flight. The Psion experiment gave her the destructive Starbolt force. Starfire is also incredibly strong, as powerful as a dozen Earth men. She is a skilled warrior whose powers and emotional intensity make her a fearful foe.
- Solar Absorption: Due to her Tamaranian physiology, Koriand'r is able to absorb and store solar energy. With this energy, she can convert it and create a limitless fuel for her body or convert them into powerful concussive blasts known as starbolts. Solar Absorption is the one attribute that differentiates her from humans and her own people, because it acts as an infinite source of energy that could light a city for years, or as a powerful and destructive blast of energy. When releasing this energy, Koriand'r is able to mold it in her favor, either sending a powerful stream of energy or a seemingly endless wave of energy bolts. She is even capable of exerting a powerful blast of energy that could reach for several feet, however at the cost of wearing herself out.
- Flight: As a Tamaranian, Koriand'r was born with the natural ability of flight. By channeling the absorbed solar energy, Koriand'r is able to propel herself through the air at blinding speeds, even faster than the speed of sound. While flying, Koriand'r leaves a distinct fire orange trail behind her.
- Enhanced Stamina: The ability to absorb solar energy allows Koriand'r to supply herself with an infinite amount of energy. Because of this, her stamina is extremely high, enabling her to feed off the energy around her and continue a fight for hours, or maybe even a whole day without even wearing out one bit. Through this, Koriand'r can maintain strenuous physical activity for a longer period of time than most individuals.
- Enhanced Durability: By natural biology, Koriand'r is more durable than most. She is able to withstand most blunt or heavy blows and can stand her own against equally powerful super beings. Albeit, she is not durable enough to be protected against piercing objects or bullets, she's strong enough to not be fazed by an explosion or by the hit of a heavy object.
- Superhuman Strength: Although not as strong as the likes of Wonder Woman or Super Girl, Koriand'r possesses a great of deal of strength that when combined with her combat knowledge, make her a formidable opponent.
- Ligustical Assimulation: She is also capable of assimilating other languages through physical contact with another person.
Known Abilities:
- Expert Combatant: Starfire is also an extremely proficient in armed and unarmed combat, having been trained in those arts by the Warlords of Okaara.
Strength Level: Koriandr is able to lift over 25 tons in weight, or the equivalent of a small tank
Weaknesses:
- Magic: Koriand'r is susceptible to all forms of powerful and high level magic. She has little to no defense against anything that is associated with the “arts”. Whatever type of spell it may be, Koriand'r is sure to fall under it.
- Mind Control: As strong as she might be, Koriand'r has absolutely no barrier against the likes of mental persuasion. Assuming you have the power and the chance, it is very easy to place Koriand'r under your control, thus making it possible to work under just about anyone's whims.
- Overexertion: If pushed to her brink, or if forced to do so, Koriand'r can over exert herself. This however is only possible if she releases a massive amount of Starbolt energy in one blow. After this she is usually “done for the day” and must take time to recharge. It is during this time that she is at her weakest and most vulnerable point.
- Sibling Rivalry: If there's one thing that can really hurt Koriand'r it's her vengeful sister. Being pitted against her has brought sometimes the best and worse out of Koriand'r and there are times when she believes her sister can truly over power her. Even if she does end up victorious in the end, Koriand'r must always be wary because her sister is always lurking around her prepared to strike and finally take her down.
- Titans' Enemies: Her time serving as a Titans has allowed her to not only establish an extensive fanbase, but an anti-fanbase as well. There are a lot of Titans' enemies and they are willing to take out every member if it's the last thing they'll do. Koriand'r can't really sleep with one eye closed because she knows that somewhere out there, someone is plotting against her, or her own teammates.
