Tara Markov (DCAMU)

## History

### Origin

The first time that Tara revealed her powers to her people, they treated her like a witch. They spent hours tormenting her but before they could kill her, Deathstroke arrives and rescues her. Tara falls in love with him and wants to be with him intimately. But before he can allow it, Deathstroke assigns her to infiltrate the Teen Titans team and spy on them for a contract that he has with Brother Blood.

### Justice League vs. Teen Titans

Tara makes a very brief cameo in the post-credit teaser at the end of the film. She is riding a flying rock as she approaches Titans' Tower.

### Teen Titans: The Judas Contract

Tara has been involved with the Teen Titans for a full year. She prefers to stay isolated and is constantly pursued, affectionately, by Garfield Logan. She spends most of her time observing each of the Titans and their personal lives. Robin sees her going out one night and follows her. They are confronted by Deathstroke and Robin is blindsided when Tara turns on him and buries him in the ground for Deathstroke to imprison. Back at Deathstrokes hideout, Tara dresses in a pink nightie and tries to seduce him. Deathstroke resists and assures her that after the mission is complete they can be together forever. A couple of days later, in Titans Tower, Tara is visited by Raven who informs her that there is an unscheduled meeting going on in the conference room. At first, Tara is afraid that the meeting is because the Titans have found out she's a spy, only to discover that they are actually celebrating her *One-Year Anniversary* with the team. Tara is genuinely touched. The party is quickly interrupted when Dick Grayson finds a lead on Brother Blood. Tara is later sitting on the beach when Garfield approaches and tries to cheer her up. Tara and Garfield finally kiss. While Garfield celebrates the kiss, Tara hears Deathstroke in her ear congratulating her on a "convincing performance" and informs her that they will make their move tomorrow. The next day, Deathstroke and Tara set up traps for each of the Titans and bring them to Brother Blood. All of the Titans, especially Garfield, are shocked by Tara betrayal. Brother Blood congratulates both of them for fulfilling their contract only to point out that Nightwing is missing. Deathstroke assures him that Nightwing is dead but Brother Blood argues that the contract was for *all* the Titans. Understanding the secret message, Deathstroke nods his head and Blood's servants tranquilize a surprised Tara. When Tara finally wakes up, she is free and sees the Titans and Nightwing fighting off Bloods men. Tara sees Deathstroke fighting both Robin and Nightwing and she goes into a rage. She screams to Deathstroke that she will kill him. The two battle and Tara ends up bringing down Blood's fortress. Deathstroke is supposedly crushed under the rocks; Blood and Mother Mayhem are killed; ad the Titans attempt to escape. Garfield tries to run to Tara's side up is stopped by the rest of the team. Tara allows them to leave before bringing down the rest of the rocks on herself. Garfield digs Tara out of the rubble. They look into each other's eyes as she dies in his arms. A few days later, at an interview with Kevin Smith, Garfield explains that Tara had a very hard life but at the last moment, she showed her angelic self.
