The Sentinel

**Zoey Zane**, better known as her hero name "**The Sentinel**", is a martian from the planet mars. She became the 6th member of The Legion, and now save lives instead of destroying them like she was taught.

## Origin

In the ethereal secrecy of Mars' unseen floating city, a martian, whose name resonates in a language unpronounceable by the human tongue, was born into a race endowed with extraordinary powers. Flight, invisibility, shapeshifting, longevity, and strength were but a few attributes that defined her kin. Subjected to experiments during her formative years, she and others were transformed into Sentinels—a potent group of soldiers groomed to conquer realms and establish an empire across the solar system. Earth became her designated target, and with the weight of duty on her shoulders, the martian embarked on a path that would shape her destiny.

As the martian matured, a burgeoning sense of morality began to gnaw at her convictions. Contemplating the worth of every life, she found herself questioning the empire's motives. In an act of defiance against her predetermined destiny, she abandoned her mission and severed ties with the oppressive Martian Empire. Shedding her old identity, she adopted the name Zoey Zane as a testament to her newfound autonomy and liberation from a dark past.

Zoey, now free from the shackles of her Martian heritage, sought refuge on Earth, aspiring to find redemption for her role in the empire's machinations. Determined to use her powers for good, she sought out The Legion, Earth's premier superhero team, and was welcomed into their ranks. Embracing her role as The Sentinel, she dedicated herself to defending humanity, becoming a symbol of resilience and redemption. Zoey Zane, once a pawn in a galactic empire's grand scheme, emerged as a beacon of justice, standing tall as The Sentinel—protector of the innocent and champion of unity.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Martian Physiology**: Hailing from a celestial race residing in an invisible floating city above Mars, The Sentinel boasts a distinct Martian physiology that grants her a spectrum of extraordinary abilities:
	+ **Flight**: The Sentinel effortlessly navigates through certain planetary atmospheres, achieving the marvel of flight.
	+ **Shape-Shifting**: Zoey's most remarkable power lies in her ability to shape-shift, manipulating the molecular structure of her body's biopolymers. This skill allows her to craft diverse constructs, including clothing and non-functional weaponry, along with assuming the guise of various individuals. While her imitative prowess knows no bounds, she is subject to a size limit in her transformations.
	+ **Enhanced Strength**: The Sentinel possesses a notable degree of superhuman strength, enhancing her physical prowess.
	+ **Invisibility**: By manipulating the biopolymers in her body, The Sentinel can disrupt light reflection, rendering herself invisible to normal human sight. With heightened concentration, she can extend this invisibility across the electromagnetic spectrum, encompassing infrared and ultraviolet ranges. However, this form of invisibility does not impede other senses, and she remains detectable by touch.
	+ **Longevity**: Time's peculiar flow on Mars grants martians a longer lifespan compared to humans, endowing The Sentinel with the gift of longevity.

## Weaknesses
