1. Princess of Tamaran

2. Almost all Tamaranians, such
as Starfire, are able to fly.
 Due to Psion
experimentation on her and
her siblings, she’s able to
shoot bolts of solar energy,
labeled “starblots,” from her
hands.
 Like flight, language assimilation via physical
contact is common on Tamaran. She prefers
using lip-to-lip contact as it’s more fun for her.
 She also has superhuman strength.


3.  Her
parents’ names are Myand’r and Luand’r.
They are king and queen of Tamaran.
 She has two siblings, a brother named
Ryand’r and a sister named
Komand’r, meaning Darkfire and
Blackfire, respectively. Blackfire has a
tremendous grudge against Starfire for taking
her place as rightful heiress to the throne.

4.  She
was married to two men over the course
of the series: Prince Karras, and General
Phy’zzon. Both of them died in battle.
 Her most notable romance was with Dick
Grayson, AKA Robin, AKA Nightwing. When
she kissed him in order to learn English, he
instantly fell in love with her and the two
had a relationship throughout much of the
series. They even attempted to get
married, but the wedding was interrupted by
Raven’s evil persona.

5.  Blackfire
was meant to be next in line for the
throne, but as she couldn’t fly, the title of
heiress fell to Starfire. Angry, Blackfire
joined the Citadel and invaded Tamaran. In
order to ensure peace, Myand’r and Luand’r
handed Starfire over to them.
 Starfire and Blackfire were
experimented upon and given the ability
to channel solar energy into starbolts.
 Eventually, Starfire broke free from
her captors and flew to Earth and
joined the Teen Titans.

6.  Starfire
is very optimistic and loyal. She will
go to the ends of the earth for the sake of
her friends and family.
 She’s also rather uninhibited, as is the way of
Tamaranians.

7.  From
what I gather, I can’t narrow down any
specific weakness for her.
 In the television series, her weakness was
her mindset. Her powers were fueled by her
emotions: flight by happiness, starbolts by
anger, and super strength by confidence. Not
being in the mindset to feel these emotions
easily puts her at a severe disadvantage.

8.  The
New Teen Titans series has quite a bit of
Starfire plots. No specific ones come to mind
off the top of my head, though.

9. I hate her recent
portrayals SO MUCH
