Biography (Official):
The sensitive newcomer to Earth, Starfire desperately wants to fit in
just like any other teenager. Although she is caring, with a curiosity
that is innocent and endearing, she won’t hesitate to hurl an energy
ball at anyone who tries to mess with her or her friends. Hynden Walch,
who has had guest starring roles on NYPD Blue, The Drew Carey Show, and
The Practice, brings warm-hearted kindness to the role.
Biography:
Starfire was a “prize” that the Gordanians were to deliver to
the Citadel, to live out her days as their servant. Starfire broke
free from the Gordanian vessel and brought her fight to Earth. After
encountering some new heroes on Earth, they eventually teamed up to
repel the Gordanian threat. Starfire stayed on with this new team
who later dubbed themselves the "Teen Titans."
Starfire is a powerful extraterrestrial being from the planet Tamaran
and
is the innocent newcomer to the group. Although she is still learning
about the strange habits and foreign customs on the planet Earth, she
remains a fierce fighter capable of firing extremely powerful energy
blasts from her hands and flight. She is a warm-hearted, kind, and
gentle friend that gets along well with all the other Teen Titans. In
particular, she spends a lot of time with Robin and considers him to be
her best friend. A dedicated optimist, Starfire may have powers and
abilities that she's not even aware of yet.
Like her sister, Blackfire, Starfire can now shoot bolts out of her
eyes--something she gained when she went through a process called
"transformation", in which a Tamaranian evolves. She was one of the few
who went about it by a process called "Chrysalis", where a horn sprouts
from the forehead, two additional horns from the neck, longer ears
become visible, and the feet swell to a larger size as well; this all
leads up to forming a cocoon around herself, which lasts only a few
minutes. Unfortunately, during this stage of Chrysalis,
she is defenseless--and, had it not been for the other Titans, she
would've been eaten by a Chrysalis
Hunter, a white and red monster that goes through life waiting for
a Tamaranian to go into this phase.
Starfire received a summons from Tamaran to come and wed her
betrothed--a man she had never met, but was forced to marry. Though it
turned out to be a giant ploy by Blackfire, Starfire almost spent her
life with the snot-monster Glgrdsklechhh. After she found out about the
plan, Starfire overthrew Blackfire and gave the throne to Galfore, so
she could return with her friends to earth.
