Kara Zor-El

"I was sent to Earth by my family to keep my cousin, Kal-El safe. But when I arrived, I learned that he didn't need protection. Because my cousin is Superman."

—Kara to Hulk, Gwen Stacy and Doreen Green about her reason for being on Earth. Kara Zor-El, also known on Earth-38 as Supergirl, is a Kryptonian and superhero.

After Krypton was destroyed, Kara and her cousin Kal-El were sent to Earth by Kara's parents to save their lives, though the majority of their species was killed in the process, making her and Kal-El the last of their kind.

Backstory
Kara lived a peaceful life in Argo City on the planet Krypton with her parents, aunt Astra, and her young cousin Kal-El. However, that peaceful life was torn away from her when Krypton started to explode and dye from seemingly unknown causes. With no time to spare, Kara's family took her and Kal-El to some escape crafts that were programmed to take them to Earth, telling them that they'd be safe there. Kara begged them to come with, but they didn't have time. Kara's parents told her they loved her before shipping the two children away while they seemingly perished along with the planet.

Personality
As a child, Kara was shown to be very curious about things she didn't know or understand. Upon Krypton's destruction, she was incredibly devastated by the destruction of a home world and the supposed death of most members of her family.

As a teenager, Kara did not get along with her adoptive sister, Alex Danvers (at the time). This was mainly due to Alex's immaturity and bratty behavior.

As an adult, Kara is kind, caring, selfless, intelligent, brave, and has a sense of justice, honor and good morals, however, when she makes mistakes, she feels immense guilt and remorse for her actions. She is also extremely dedicated, willing to go to any lengths needed to solve problems and put away bad guys.

Appearance
Kara is a very beautiful young Kryptonian woman with long blonde hair, a slim and curvy body, and beautiful blue eyes.
