Superhero Proving Grounds

Origin story

This entity, Terra, deeply connected to the natural wonders and spiritual essence of the world, sensed her pure-hearted intentions and potential during a solitary training session in the rugged Canadian wilderness.

This physical embodiment of nature itself sees potential for Georgia to be gifted with such abilities, but she must be tested, which are:

1. Trial of Compassion: Along her path, Georgia encounters a wounded animal. Terra observes to see if she stops to help the creature or simply passes by. This tests her compassion and empathy for all living beings. She sees the wounded animal, and rips some of her jacket off to use as a way to dress the wound, using some elastic from her jacket to help apply a stick for the animal so that it can recover well enough 

2. Trial of Integrity: Georgia discovers a lost item of value belonging to someone else. Terra observes to see if she returns the item to its rightful owner, testing her honesty and integrity. She flips the item over to see the bottom of it, seeing that it has the contact information of the owner. So Georgia messages them and arranges for them to pick up the missing item at their place, not wanting them to make a journey if it means they deal with heavy traffic.

3. Trial of Perseverance: Georgia encounters a difficult obstacle along her path, a fallen tree blocking the trail. Terra observes to see if she persists in finding a way around or through the obstacle, testing her determination and resilience in the face of adversity. And with little surprise, Georgia sees it as a challenge, and spends 5 or 10 minutes, finding a way to lift the tree enough to roll it out of the way, showing her ingenuity and her strength already.

4. Trial of Connection: Throughout her walk, the woman is presented with opportunities to connect with the natural world around her, whether it's observing the beauty of a sunrise or listening to the songs of birds. Terra observes to see if she appreciates and respects the interconnectedness of all living things, testing her bond with the Earth. Georgia passes this comfortably, walking and showing absolute respect to the tiniest of animals by avoiding accidentally stepping on an ant by accident, and not being bothered with bugs or animals around her in an eventful walk.

With her passing the trials with flying colours, Terra granted her enhanced strength, speed, and agility, as well as a heightened connection to the natural world around her. She also has a heightened power for regeneration to an almost immortal level (doesn't mean she can't get knocked out though)

At first, she struggled to control her newfound abilities, inadvertently causing chaos in her attempts to harness their power. Recognizing the responsibility that came with her gifts, she embarked on a journey of self-discovery and training, seeking guidance from indigenous elders, mystical shamans, and wise mentors across Canada.

Through dedication, perseverance, and the lessons learned from her mentors, she honed her abilities and embraced her role as a guardian of Canada's natural beauty and its people. She used her superhuman athleticism to defend her homeland from threats both mundane and supernatural, whether it be thwarting eco-terrorists or battling otherworldly entities drawn to the mystical energies inside her

Inspired by her own experiences as an athlete and the values instilled in her by her Canadian upbringing, she dedicated herself to using her powers for the greater good, protecting both the land she loves and the people who call it home. As the Elemental Empress, she stands as a symbol of courage, resilience, and unity, embodying the spirit of nature in its best form in her quest to make the world a better place.
