**Starfire** is a fictional character from the DC Universe. She is a Tamaranean warrior princess who is the second daughter of Myand'r and Luand'r, a love interest of Dick Grayson and a member of the Teen Titans.

## Characteristics

Starfire i In the comics, Starfire is a warrior princess from the planet of Tamaran, whose parents were King Myand'r and Queen Luand'r , and the sister of Komand'r (Blackfire) and Ryand'r (Darkfire). Growing up, Koriand'r and Komand'r were at each other's throats since the beginning. Komand'r grew jealous of her younger siblings because of their parents' favoritism for Starfire over her. In order to keep his people safe, Myand'r was forced to sell his daughter into slavery when the Gordanians attacked.

After being a slave and being freed, Starfire fled to Earth, where she befriended Robin and helped form the Teen Titans. She briefly dated Dick Grayson and later became a member of the Outlaws, the Justice League Odyssey, and the Justice League.

## Analysis

### What makes her a heroine

she proves to be a very powerful individual.

* In most continuities, she is one of the most prominent figures in the DC universe.
* Starfire's powers are tied to her emotions, so Starfire has to keep them in check.
* In the new 52, Starfire is a skilled pilot in her own right.
* Starfire is fairly naive mostly due to being a newcomer to Earth. She is obsessed with mustard because she thinks its a drink instead of a condiment and her misunderstandings are played for laughs.
* She tries to wake up Supergirl when she is knocked onconscious. However, Kory fails because she fears she is going to break her hand. This implies that Kryptonians are proven to be stronger than Tamaraneans.
* Despite enduring years of being a slave of Gordanians and abuse/being raped, Kori still remains caring and confident. HOwever in *Red Hood and the Outlaws* she gets touchy whenever she has to deal with her past.
* Koriand'r becomes close friends and occasional loves with Dick Grayson, who she genuinely cares for.
* Despite her kindness, Koriand'r is, in a word, a force to be reckoned with, especially with her friends involved.
* She acted as a mentor to newer members of the Teen Titan.
* In the New 52, despite Blackfire betraying her, Koriand'r and Komand'r reconcile their broken relationship.
* On Earth-22, Kori and Dick married. She proves to be a good mother towards her daughter Nightstar.
* When she thought Animal Man was killed by Lady Styx, Starfire wanted to bring his jacket back to his family. However, she didn't need to because Animal Man turned out to be alive.
* Acts like a sister and best friend for Raven.
* She greatly cares for her best friends, especially Jason Todd and Roy Harper.
