Destiny Shield

**Destiny Shield** was the name of a superhero from the planet Myra-Zur. She was also a member of the J.L.A.D.F. She was also a former member of The Strikes under the alias **Wrath Strike**, but changed her name later on in her career.

## **Origins**

Destiny Shield lived through the Kryptonian & Myra-Zuran War and was also an apprentice to Batra. She aided in the rite which breached the magic foci on her world and therefore, created the supervillain group known as The Strikes. Like them, her powers were enhanced greatly, but she took on a more cosmic humanoid form. Where as the Strikes used their powers on the offensive most of the time, she used hers to protect and heal those wounded.

She was one of the survivors who escaped the destruction of Myra-Zur and realized the true reason behind the Kryptonian military's withdrawal from her home planet. After this, she stopped fighting with the Strikes all together. Where as her comrades held a blind rage and prejudice against all of Krypton's survivors, she did not and couldn't be apart of their war against them either. She stayed with them for a while while they tried looking for a way of reviving Batra from the hellish plane he resided in, but to no avail. World after world, the species they encountered died and worlds were destroyed.

Destiny Shield left them and vowed that the next world they would strike, would be the one she buried them on, which was in their case Earth. She couldn't defeat them after decades of war and she seeked aid from others to help her in her quest. This led to her finding Jack Cross who was wounded in the line of duty. She saved his life by giving her part of her soul and enhancing him with great powers. She waited at his home until he arrived and explained to him she saved him from death and that she needed his aid in combating crime. She and him both met up with Batman who sought out Jack after the incident and despite their rough start, their meeting went well.

Batman took Jack under his wing while Wonder Woman became Destiny's mentor. This got them introduced to the Justice League and soon after, becoming members of the J.L.A.D.F.
