Alexandria Austin was intent on seeing the world. The daughter of a diplomat, she was going to follow in her mother's footsteps and become an attaché. She spent six years attending school in Pennsylvania and Europe. She went to the right parties, and pretty much made herself as many contacts as possible. On night, she was at a party for a young dilettante from France, when she and a few of her friends decided to travel down to the coast. On her way there a shooting star struck the earth right in front of her car. She swerved and hit a tree. Her car was totaled and she had flown through the windshield and lay dying on the road. She struggled to breath, tried in vain to move or speak, but nothing was happening. It was then that she heard in her mind the feeble voice of Kymar. Kymar was a being of vast power, but the power had attracted Devios the Mad. Devios was also a being of vast power and he wanted to clean out the competition, and potential competition, and a couple of worlds because they were ugly. Devios had assaulted Kymar just outside of the earth's atmosphere and would surely come down to lay claim to Kymar's power and snuff out its life. Kymar was dying and it posed a solution to the young woman. <i>We are both dying, it seems...</i> it began, <i>Perhaps, I can spare us both.</i> Using its telekinetic powers, Kymar brought Alexandria's dying body over towards it. With barely enough strength to open her eyes, Alexandria stared at the alien, it resembled a bluish silver Pegasus from Greek legends, although its wings had no feathers and its head looked less like a horse and more like a dragon. <i>Hmmm...it appears I have sustained more damage than I had thought...</i> The voice in her head was getting softer, <i>Your world is in danger, Devios will not be quenched by my death alone...Take my power human, perhaps you can find away to save your world...</i> Alexandria woke in a crater. Next to her was a broken corpse of a being she had never seen before. In her head swam thoughts of danger. Concentrating, she pinpointed it. Looking to the sky she could almost see Devios. Without thinking, a sheath of cosmic metal surrounded her body and she prepared for battle. Mentally summoning as many heroes as she could, Emperia took off to battle the Mad Titan. Since driving off Devios, she has traveled the globe and much of the solar system. She has faced beings of cosmic and psionic might. She has saved the world. Someday, she will travel to the stars and see what the rest of the universe is like, but now, Earth needs her. Emperia is a "world guardian" she sees herself as a protector of the entire planet. She aslo sees this as a job. Eventually she expects the Earth to get along without her and explore the universe. She's aloof and quite arrogant, but she tries to do the right thing and has made attempts at modesty. "You do not give the orders around here; <b><i>I do</i></b>." A powerful mentalist made even more powerful with a cosmic variable power pool at her disposal. She has the traditional "Cosmic" abilities of spuerhuman strength and gleaming, environmentally independant, and hyper resiliant skin. She can fly. She's annoying but tries to do the right thing. She thinks she's always right and powerful enough to push around entire teams. She should be used carefully. A beautifull goddess, cast in gleaming blue tinted silver, Alexandria bears a striking resemblance to Marvel Comic's Nova (the shiny female of fire, not bucket head). When "armored up" she wears no clothing, her metallic "skin" has a dark metallic blue eye symbol on her chest. Other than that, nothing. Her hair is a soft, transparent energy, it can be touched and tingles a bit. In her civies, she dresses like a bond girl. She enjoys her body's cosmic "enhancements" and feels she can dress however she wants.
