Faora Hu-Ul (DC Bombshells)

Faora Hu-Ul is a Kryptonian criminal posing as Soviet general Fyodora Khulun.

History

Year One (1940)

Faora has become second-in-command under General Anton Arkayn and is present at the interrogation of Supergirl and Stargirl.

Year Three (1942)

After Hugo Strange informs Killer Frost about the escape of Supergirl, Power Girl, and Superman, Frost feels it is best to call Faora in. Faora and Frost take command of the armies of mythical creatures as they attack the city of Leningrad (St. Petersburg). Supergirl takes Faora on and Faora reveals to her that she is her birth mother. Supergirl refuses to accept it. After being interrupted by Raven, Faora kills her father Trigon. In response, Raven allows her rage to consume her, becoming a forest spirit herself. Faora takes advantage of this opportunity and takes a sample of Raven's magical blood, injecting it into herself. Thus Faora is transformed into Doomsday. Supergirl gathers all of the Bombshells together and they work to take Faora down. Finally, Faora is swallowed by Swamp Thing and the city is saved. But Abigel Kholland explains to Supergirl that Faora is not dead. She has only been laid dormant and may one day rise again.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

• Kryptonian Physiology: Under the effects of a "yellow" sun, Faora Hu-Ul possesses the same potential powers as an average Kryptonian. These include:
  • Solar Energy Absorption: Under optimal conditions, this is the main source of Faora Hu-Ul's super powers as they are contingent upon exposure to solar radiation from a yellow sun star system. Her biological make up includes a number of organs which lack analogues in humans and whose functions are unknown. It is believed that between one or more of these and her bio-cellular matrix, "yellow" solar energy is stored for later use. This allows for the use of these powers to fade when yellow solar radiation is not available instead of immediate failure.
  • Heat Vision: Faora Hu-Ul can, as a conscious act, fire beams of intense heat at a target by looking at it. She can vary the heat and area affected.
  • Super-Hearing: Faora Hu-Ul's hearing is sensitive enough to hear any sound at any volume or pitch. With skill and concentration, she can block out ambient sounds to focus on a specific source or frequency.
  • Enhanced Vision: Faora Hu-Ul's vision processes the entire electromagnetic spectrum as well as allowing vast control over selective perception and focus.
    This umbrella ability includes the following:
    • Electromagnetic Spectrum Vision: Faora Hu-Ul can see well into most of the electromagnetic spectrum. She can see and identify radio and television signals as well as all other broadcast or transmitted frequencies. Using this ability, she can avoid detection by radar or satellite monitoring methods. This also allows her to see the aura generated by living thing.
    • Telescopic Vision: This is the ability to see something at a great distance, without violating the laws of physics. Though limited, the exact extent of the ability is undetermined. In function, it is similar to the zoom lens on a camera.
    • X-Ray Vision: This is the ability to see through any volume of matter except lead. Faora Hu-Uls can see things behind a solid, opaque object as if it were not there. She can focus this ability to "peel back" layers of an object, allowing hidden image or inner workings to be observed. The exact type of energy perceived—such as x-rays, cosmic rays, or some other energy invisible to normal humans—is unclear. This ability perceives an ambient energy source though, it does not involve the eye projecting a concentrated, possibly toxic, beam to be reflected back from objects.
    • Microscopic Vision: This is the ability to see extremely small objects and images down to the atomic level.
    • Infrared Vision: Faora Hu-Ul can see with better acuity in darkness, and to a degree in total darkness.
  • Flight: Faora Hu-Ul is able to manipulate graviton particles to defy the forces of gravity and achieve flight. This ranges from hovering to moving in any posture, in any direction.
  • Invulnerability: Due to the interaction of her dense molecular structure and supercharged bio-electric aura, Faora Hu-Ul is nigh-invulnerable to extreme energy forces. In addition, her extends this protection against toxins and diseases.
    • Enhanced Immunity
  • Superhuman Stamina: Faora Hu-Ul is able to maintain continuous strenuous physical action for an indefinite period of time. This based on her body converting yellow solar radiation directly to energy but is limited by physiological and psychological needs to eat, drink, and sleep.
  • Superhuman Strength: Faora Hu-Ul's strength is augmented by yellow solar radiation interacting with the greater than human density, resilience and biological efficiency of her musculature. Her strength is more an act of conscious will on energy fields than actual physical strength. It is this act of conscious will that enables her to perform physical feats that are beyond the mere application force, such as moving a mountain top without said rock crumbling under its own mass.
  • Superhuman Speed: Faora Hu-Ul is able to move at incredible speed by sheer force of will. This extends to her perceptions and allows for feats such as catching bullets in mid-flight as well as covering vast distances in little or no time.
    This also confers:
    • Superhuman Agility
    • Superhuman Reflexes
  • Super-Breath: Faora Hu-Ul is able to create hurricane force winds by exhaling air from her lungs. She can chill the air as it leaves her lungs to freeze targets. She can also reverse the process to pull large volumes of air or vapor into her lungs.
  • Longevity: Faora Hu-Ul can live longer than regular humans, remaining at her prime as long as she was under the exposure of the "yellow" sun.

Weaknesses

• Kryptonian Physiology: Under the effects of a "yellow" sun, Faora Hu-Ul possesses the same potential weaknesses as an average Kryptonian. These include:
  • Vulnerability to Kryptonite
  • Vulnerability to Magic
