Donna Troy

## Background

### Princess of Troy

Donna of Troy was born on April 26th, 1276 BC. In 1260 BC, Troy fell, and Princess Donna was left the sole survivor. That evening, a scout of Amazons came upon the city and found the Princess hidden among the rubble. Donna put up quite the fight. Amused by her feistiness, They decided to bring her back to Themyscira with them.

### Amazon

Donna arrived on Themyscira in the body of a sixteen-year-old girl. During her time on the island, she never quite grew past that. She grew up alongside Diana, as her playmate and confidant. When Diana left for Man’s World, Donna stayed behind to continue her training. She loved being on the island, but she always held a hint of jealousy for Diana's adventures.

In 2005, Diana returned from Man's World to ask her mother to open up resources to Man's World, but Queen Hippolyta refused. In secret, Donna stowed away on Diana's boat and awoke the next day in Happy Harbor. Diana found the child and took her with her to the team's current meeting spot, a hollowed out mountain called Mount Justice. There, the rest of the Justice League just happened to have their teenage proteges along for the ride, and Donna met Robin, Batgirl, Speedy, Aqualad, Kid Flash, and Supergirl. After Robin dubbed Donna "the Wonder Girl" , the Titans were born.

### Wonder Girl

The Titans started off as just sort of a clubhouse for the League's proteges. One day, while hanging out at Mount Justice, a wizard named Mister Twister began terrorizing Happy Harbor. The teens sprang into action and made quick work of the wizard, who turned out to be an android. Donna discovered this when she sliced off the man's arm and found it to be a tangle of wires rather than blood and bone. While at first condemned for their actions, the League decided to allow the heroes to operate on their own as the Teen Titans.

Donna quickly developed a crush on Roy Harper as the Titans got up and running. Diana’s busy schedule didn’t allot for caring for Donna, but a colleague, Doctor Helena Sandsmark agreed to take care of her. So, Donna began splitting her time between Gateway City as a student of Dr. Sandsmark and Jump City as a Titan.

As they grew in maturity, Donna and Roy had a brief fling, but it didn't quite work out. Donna graduated high school and began studying photography, where she fell head-over-heels for photography student Terry Long. Their relationship didn’t last long, as Donna didn’t trust him with the Titan business. He eventually put two-and-two together, and when Donna graduated she moved to Jump City, away from Terry.

When Wonder Woman was poisoned by Isabel Maru and Dr. Sandsmark was kidnapped, Donna headlined a search for Maru's associates, collectively known as Godwatch. During this adventure, Helena's daughter, Cassie, took up arms with some artifacts from the museum Sandsmark and Diana worked at. After proving herself in the battle against Godwatch, Donna passed the mantle of Wonder Girl to Cassie, and decided it was time to find a new meaning.

In 2009, Donna became the Ambassador to the United Nations for the Paradise Islands. The world of politics was of great interest to her, and it allowed her to return home more often, reuniting with her Amazon sisters again. Being able to spread the Amazons’ resources to those who needed it brought her great fulfillment. She would return to heroics from time-to-time, but mostly preoccupied herself with this venture.

On December 31st, 2013, while attending the induction ceremony for some of her former teammates to the Justice League, Donna caught eyes for one of the new League members - the fourth Green Lantern, Kyle Rayner. The two fell for one another and quickly started dating. Kyle slowly coaxed the superhero back into the former Wonder Girl. After the Death in the Family, Donna and Kyle decided to head to space to get some time away from Earth.

### Darkstar

Kyle introduced her to the rest of the Green Lantern Corps. She began working with them tracking the assassin Fatality across the galaxy, where she and Kyle allied themselves with the last of Darkstars, Ferrin Colos, a former intergalactic detective. He took a liking to Donna and took her on as an apprentice, eventually giving his life in a battle against the Starbreaker. Donna took up the identity of Darkstar in his honor.

While in space, Donna gave birth to a son, Robert, and she and Kyle returned to Earth for a small wedding in the empty Titans Tower. They happened to be on Earth when President Luthor lifted the No Man’s Land order on Gotham and helped out in the cleanup effort of the city. Donna agreed to help Dick lead the Titans yet again, giving them the guidance they needed, while also navigating being a mother and returning to her photography business.
