Formed out of clay by her mother, Queen Hippolyta, Diana of Themyscira was given life and great powers by the Olympian gods. Following tradition on the Amazon island, Diana was raised as a warrior, but she always had a desire to explore peaceful options to resolve conflicts. As Wonder Woman, Diana is an ambassador from the island of Themyscira to Patriarch's World, teaching a message of peace and equality by her own example. After Diana's death at the hands of Neron, Hippolyta's supplication to the goddess Hera led to Diana's rebirth and transfiguration into the Goddess of Truth. Not long afterwards, she willingly relinquished her divinity to resume her role as Wonder Woman. In case you forgot, Wonder Woman possesses incredible strength and the power of flight, her bracelets can deflect bullets and her magic lasso was spun from the girdle of Gaia.
