## Background

### 4200 BCE - 3000 BCE: Background

The Amazons are reincarnations of the souls of abused & murdered women from ancient days. In 4200 BCE, Artemis led some of the gods to the Womb of Gaea & sent the souls to be reincarnated into adult women. The new race were approached by the goddesses, who bestowed upon them several blessings, charging them with the purpose of leading humanity in the ways of Gaea.

The goddesses appointed Hippolyta as the Queen of the civilization. Stories of this civilization spread throughout Greece & reached the ears of Hercules, who was being manipulated by Ares into attacking them. He & Theseus deceived the Amazons & assaulted them while Hippolyta was drugged. She freed her sisters, who then slaughtered the men. Hippolyta did not agree with the blood spilt & was saved due to her devotion to the gods. To keep them safe from men, they moved them to Themyscira, an island magically protected by the Gods & granted the Amazons eternal youth & beauty. To seal this deal, Hippolyta had to lay with the Greek god Zeus.

Blessed with gift of life, the gods present bestowed their gifts upon the newborn. Demeter granted the baby great strength, Aphrodite granted her great beauty & a loving heart, Athena granted her great wisdom, Artemis granted her the eye of the hunter & unity with beasts, Hestia granted her sisterhood with fire & Hermes gave her great speed and the power of flight. And this, Diana of Themyscira was born.

### 3000 BCE - 1426: Diana of Themyscira

Diana grew up surrounded by a legion of sisters & her mother. Through them, she learned everything from combat, occultism, the gods & the mysterious Man's World. The Amazons were forbidden by their own law to enter the Man's World unless they were undertaking the coming of age ritual, something decreed by the gods.

For long a time, Diana only learned of Man’s World through stories from the historians & yearned to visit for herself. Her time would come when her mother decided it was time for Diana to undergo the ritual into Man's World. Her mother was quite hesitant but knew Diana could handle herself due to years of training, becoming an elite warrior that few could best in battle.

### 1991 - 1998: Diana of Themyscira

After decades of repenting her wrongdoings, Diana was allowed stepped foot back into Man's World. Just like the last time, Diana was given a set amount of time before she had to return home but she overstayed her welcome. The Amazons figured she had gotten distracted but she had actually fallen in love with a man named Stephen. The two fled from her designated location & settled down in Eastern Europe to start their lives together.

Diana soon fell pregnant with their child, sealing her decision on staying in Man's World & starting a family. In the countryside, Diana gave birth to their daughter Aresia, naming her after her cousin Ares. Only a week into recovering from childbirth, Stephen revealed himself to be Steppenwolf, the uncle of Apokoliptian dictator Darkseid. After realizing her ancestry weeks into their relationship, he strategized a plan to seduce the princess then take their child to be raised as one of Darkseid's warriors. Being a warrior herself, Diana never backed down from a fight. She swiftly defeated him a battle & he retreated to Apokolips. Diana realized Man's World was not safe for her daughter & returned to her home island of Themyscira. As Diana spent years repenting, Aresia was placed in the care of her grandmother Queen Hippolyta. Once she finished, Diana raised Aresia on the island as a princess & a warrior.

Diana was able to suppress her desire of returning to Man's World after seeing the damage that Steppenwolf caused her alone. Her mind changed after Steve Trevor, a US pilot, crash landed on their island while conducting some training with Navy SEALs. Though the rest of his team died upon impact, the Amazons were able to nurse Steve back to health & Diana took a special interest in the man. Hippolyta held a contest between the Amazons to determine which among them would escort Steve back to Man's World. Whoever would rise as the champion would receive the honor & responsibility to take Trevor back to his home. It wasn't much of a surprise when Diana was crowned champion of the Amazons. Upon her arrival, Steve explained to the United States government that Diana saved his life. She was quickly named a hero with the media dubbing her as Wonder Woman. Because they already had some rapport, the United States appointed Trevor to be her guide & liaison.
