Abilities and Skills: Faster-Than-Light Flight: Starfire (as well as other Tamaraneans) can fly under her own power, without the aid of wings or any other applications. In space, this flight can achieve speeds much faster than light. It is said that this is used by great happiness.
Bright-Green Energy Projection: Starfire can project bright green glowing energy from her hands. She mainly uses this attack by throwing small bursts of pure bright green energy from her hands, known as "starbolts". She has also been shown to shoot this energy in the form of large beams. The amount of pure energy she can produce at one time can extend to enormous proportions, as seen in "The End Part 1", where she creates the largest starbolt seen in the series. After going t
the Tamaranean version of puberty (referred to as the "Transformation"), she gained the incredibly strong, powerful, and useful power/ability to channel her bright green starbolt energy through her eyes as thick, large narrow laser beams known as Heat Vision (sort of like Superman), which is largely reserved as a surprise attack, or when her limbs are restrained.
Bright Green Energy Spheres: On rare occasions, Starfire has been shown to create a complete sphere of energy around her. Whether she can use this as a form of defense, however, is not known.
Bright Green Energy Explosions: Starfire shows the ability to create a sudden explosion of bright green glowing energy around her, having the immense and highly destructive capability to blow away any enemies in the perimeter of the blast.
Self-Sustenance: Starfire also has the ability to survive in the vacuum of space without any sort of protection or survival gear. She also doesn't get as cold as others and will be unharmed by very cold weather.
Invulnerability: Starfire has demonstrated moderate invulnerability to physical harm, heat, cold, and radiation.
Superhuman Strength: Starfire has great strength and it appears to be considerably greater than Cyborg's.
Strange Tamaranian Physiology: Starfire is known to have an abnormally long, purple tongue and nine stomachs, presumably for storing additional food for meager times.
Language Assimilation: Starfire can learn any language instantaneously through lip contact. She can currently speak English, Tamaranean, and Japanese. It is unknown if Tamaraneans learn any languages at all by regular physical contact other than a kiss.
Accelerated Healing Factor:
Abilities
Immense Agility: Starfire has shown great agility over the known human standards.
Exceptional Fighting and Combat Skills: Starfire displayed some great fighting skills. Even when hand cuffed, she could hold her own against a handful of Gordanians and even the Titans when first came to Earth.
Weaknesses
Starfire, like many Tamaraneans, is allergic to metallic chromium. When she sneezes, she unleashes explosive starbolt energy out of her nose and mouth. This may be considered a weakness.
Starfire's powers are based on her emotions, so when she is emotionally confused, her powers are more likely to not work properly.


Personality: Starfire is joyous, friendly, perceptive, naive and somewhat insecure, but her naivete is not to be mistaken for stupidity, though it is this naivete that endears her to others. She is closest to Robin, out of all the Titans. She asked him to explain the ways of Earth to her. An alien and an outsider, she is still rather new to Earth and its customs. She is arguably the most social of the Titans, regularly meditating with Raven, or lifting weights with Cyborg. Above all, she wishes to be friends with everyone she meets, and for everyone to get along. She also insists on sharing her own customs with other members of the team (such as providing a crown of raw meat to be worn on one's birthday), but doesn't generally take offence when they don't understand or refuse her. Additionally, she uses several Tamaranean nouns, such as "bumgorf" (term of endearment towards one's own child), "K'norfka" (parent or guardian), "clorbag valblernelk" (insulting term), "G'lufnog" (bless you; said after one sneezes), and "shlorvak" (dream).

History/Background: Starfire was born and raised on the distant planet Tamaran before arriving on Earth and joining the Teen Titans. The Tamaraneans are an emotional race who see feelings as the force that drives their very livelihood. In fact, it's their emotions that fuel their natural abilities of flight and starbolt power. Because of this, Starfire is inherently the most sensitive member of the Titans. Starfire was cared for as a child by Galfore, she also has a younger brother named Wildfire, who was sent away when the Gordanians attacked Tamaran. Her parents died from grief after he was traded as a slave by Blackfire to the Gordanians in order to bring peace to war-torn Tamaran. Starfire came to Earth as Koriand'r, an alien princess being transported by Gordanians, in exile as a slave to the Citadel. Through the use of her innate Tamaranean strength, she broke free from the brig aboard a Gordanian ship and landed in Jump City. While attempting to free herself of the handcuffs with which she had been laden, she ended up both destroying buildings and cars, and running into the Titans she late became friends with.
