Venelia

## Powers & Abilities

* **Amazon Physiology:** Although Amazons are generally similar to human women in appearance, they are distinguished from them by their remarkable beauty & enhanced physiology. They possess enhanced strength, coordination, stamina & agility, further honed by their years of combat training. The Amazons have received gifts & blessings from five Olympian goddesses: Artemis, Athena, Demeter, Hestia & Aphrodite.
	+ ***Enhanced Agility*:** Amazons naturally have greater agility, dexterity, balance & body coordination than than the average human.
	+ ***Enhanced Durability*:** The bodies of Amazons are much more resistant to physical damage than the body of an average human.
	+ ***Enhanced Intellect*:** A gift from Athena, Amazons possess wisdom to be guided by peace & justice, as well as a heightened intellect that allows them to learn & adapt quicker than the average human.
		- ***Multinlingualism*:** Amazons were gifted with the ability to innately understand all human languages, including those currently dead such as Ancient Greek, Latin, Sumerian or Turkish Ottoman. This incredible learning capability allows them to learn non-human languages as well.
	+ ***Enhanced Speed*:** Amazons are able to move at faster speeds than the average human.
	+ ***Enhanced Stamina*:** Amazons' musculature produces considerably fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than that of humans. This allows them to have a level of superhuman stamina so that they don't nee to slow down or catch their breath when in battle.
	+ ***Enhanced Strength*:** Amazons are superhumanly strong, more than any normal human. They are able to block gunfire with their shields, lift other beings into the air with one arm & deliver blows powerful enough to stagger/disorient larger beings. Similar to her mother, she is one of the few Amazons that can go a few rounds with Princess Diana.
	+ ***Immortality*:** Amazons were gifted immortality by the Olympians but can be killed in war or in an accident.
	+ ***Self-Sustenance*:** So long as the Amazons stay on Themyscira, she does not require food, water or any other form of nourishment to maintain her health and vitality. Although they are not susceptible to the throes of hunger, this does not mean that Amazons don't consume food for enjoyment.
* **Equestrianism:** All Amazons spend a considerate amount of times at the stables, with most even having their own horse.
* **Hand to Hand Combat:** She is one of the Amazons' most accomplished warriors & a master of combat, sword-fighting & archery. Artemis is the equal of Diana (Wonder Woman) in combat, though her fighting style is far more aggressive, which contrasts with Diana's more measured approach. Because she never holds back, Artemis has often beaten Diana when they have fought & believes herself to be the superior fighter. Back when they were the Bana-Mighdall, she was the designated Bana champion & had the title of Shim'Tar.
* **Occultism:** Venelia has extended knowledge in sorcery but limited skill in this matter.
* **Weaponry:** Artemis' mastery of arms includes the ability to expertly construct bows, arrows, and many other weapons by hand. She possesses considerable mechanical ingenuity and is able to quickly fashion useful implements out of any available material, such as when she braided a sturdy rope out of her own hair & then employed it both as a weapon.
* **Mistress**: A giant battle axe of the Gods that Venelia can call to her person.
* **Bow of Ra**: A powerful artifact that belongs to the designated Bana champion. With it in hand, Venelia can discharge either regular or hyper-destructive solar energy arrows potent enough to shatter stars and planets.
