For Issue 5 I spoke to my regular GM Greg, the guy likely to be the GM of any supers game I'll play in and my go to guy for Marvel questions, suggested an adventure where Kara travels to Madripoor. Kara is there as part of a delegation with one of her law professors. Her role here is of course to be quiet and learn. Bet you know how that is going to turn out.
Since we are going to focus on the drama here Greg wanted to give her a love interest, one of the local criminals (whose name escapes me at the moment, but I think it was Wolverine's son).
So with out further ado, here is Justice.

Struggling with Identity (is she Amazon? Kryptonian? something new? How can she fit into a human world?)

Milestones
Just like Mom and Dad...
1xp You encounter someone that knew your father
3xp You defeat one of your father's or mother's old enemies.
10xp You join or leave a team that your parents were on.
"Justice will Prevail!"
1xp You save an innocent life
3xp You must make a choice between the Law and Justice
10 xp You choose to see justice done at the expense of your own personal happiness.
I think this describes her rather well to be honest. And it is something I could use to help drive the character in any other Supers game she might be in.

I enjoy this character! Justice and her dual-heritage are a wonderful way to explore the new Marvel rules.
What do you think of the more storytelling-oriented rules? I like the fact that they're not focused on measuring the bench-pressing power of a given super; they're about expressing what they're capable of with a focus on context of culture and relationships.
Thanks for sharing her write-up! I look forward to hearing more about what happens in Madripoor.
