Where should Diana's powers come from, and what should they be?

[Jcogginsa]

Diana's powers have had a lot of origins over the years. They've been Amazonian Martial Arts, blessings from the gods, outright divine lineage, etc. Which origin do you think works best.

Furthermore, what powers should she have at all? You can include what tools and gadgets she has as well

-----

For my money, I think the Amazonian training explanation works best with Diana's themes. Wonder Woman is about female empowerment, so having her powers stem from a source that any woman could gain access to and become empowered is logical.

Now as for what her powers should be, I'll cover the basic abilities first: Super Strength,Super Speed, and super toughness (With a singular exception to bullets due to magical reasons). No flight though, as it works best for that to be achieved through tools like the Jet or the winged armor.

Do to coming from a massively technologically advanced island, Diana is incredibly intelligent by the standards of man's world, though only slightly above average on Themyscira.

Her Amazonian martial arts gives her great skill in hand to hand combat, and excellent self control. It also grants her a degree of psychic powers, though she needs to use the mental radio to channel that into a useable form.

With the Mental Radio, she can listen to the hearts of creatures, allowing her to discern their feelings or any messages they're trying to send. The works on Animals, and even plants.

In terms of her other tools, she has the Lasso, which is another means of channeling her psychic abilities. She typically uses it to obtain the truth, but can also use it to issue commands in dire circumstances.

Her Bracelets allow her to do the Bullet deflecting trick, nothing much to say there.

She had the invisible jet, which has the shapeshifting abilities of the wonder dome.

[WonderLight789]

Why shouldn't she fly on her own? She has had that power for many decades now. And the weakness to bullets is not needed. In fact, there is potential for an arc where she overcomes that weakness via mental training, similar to how she gets her other powers via training. And with that, you can have another iconic moment of self empowerment and overcoming.

[Gaius]

Powers from the main patron deities of the island, for simplicity sake narrowing it down to just three major patrons; Artemis (strength, speed, communion with animals, reflexes, invulnerability, flight), Athena (wisdom, immunity to mind control, can speak multiple languages), and Aphrodite (limited empath abilities, healing factor).

Tools:
Lasso - The usual stuff, giving commands with it however requires a certain mastery/skill with of it.
Bracelets
Invisible Plane - more a mobile base than anything else. Similar from the Wagner mini-series.

[Perseus]

Diana's powers should be gifts of the gods, when and how she gets them is up to interpretation. My personal belief is that she was innately blessed with them during her creation from clay but, she never really got to test the limitations or lack there of on the island. Only in the magic realms or cosmic space does she really get to cut loose her real power. She was created to be an equal to Superman, don't see how or why she can't be.

In terms of what god blessings/powers she should have...

• Demeter, goddess of the earth and harvest; Godlike strength and durability drawn by the primordial earth mother, Gaia. She also gets super breath due to her strong lungs and can hold her breath for days.
• Hermes, messenger of the gods and god of speed; Godlike speed and the ability to fly
• Artemis, goddess of the moon and hunt; eyes of the master huntress (Diana's insane reflexes and she can see atoms) , unity with nature/animals (Diana would have an encyclopedic knowledge of all plants and animals) , and her ability to talk with all animals.
• Apollo, god of the sun and healing; Godlike healing factor allowing Diana to heal from deadly wounds in minutes
• Athena, goddess of wisdom and warfare; Great wisdom, a strong mind (how Diana can resist mental manipulation) , and the Grey eyes (like how Diomedes was blessed in the trojan war to see gods/souls and interact with them, Diana can also see and sense magic)
• Aphrodite, goddess of beauty; Stunning beauty (pretty self explanatory) and a source of love
• Hestia, goddess of the home and fire; unity with the flame of Olympus
• Zeus, king of the gods; unity with the eternal lightning
• Hecate, goddess of magic; the witch mark

The lightning and flame powers are magic and far more dangerous and power than anything in the natural universe. Her witch mark is something she needs to learn to control without losing control. Her witch mark gives her access to some of her older golden age powers like telepathy, teleportation, and astral perjection.

Diana's wisdom is said to be equal to Athena, so she would naturally excel at what Athena is known for... leadership, math, justice and law, medicine, crafts, war strategy, science, etc... so Diana is a nurse, lawyer, general and warrior, scientist, and ambassador all at the peak of their respective fields. She obviously spends an equal amount of time in the library studying as she does training on the field. Her smarts start as naturally gifted but, she still needs to grow and evolve and learn to get to that peak.

Equipment: Everything is made by Hephaestus using adamantine, amazonium, and Nth metal (except the lasso, lasso made by Hestia using the golden girdle of Gaia)

Champions armor (costume) - indestructible, fabric made from the Nemean lion's pelt, metal armor from adamantine, self repairing

Lasso - indestructible, has infinite length, revels the truth, commands people, manipulates souls, can channel magic
Bracelets - indestructible, creates a concussive blast when hit together, can redirect projectiles, can channel magic, can summon her sword and aegis
Royal tiara - indestructible, cuts electrons off atoms sharp, acts like a boomerang
(new) Royal belt - originally Hippolyta's belt from Ares, blessing of battle the longer you are in a fight the stronger and faster you get

Sword - indestructible, cuts atoms sharp, can channel magic, can be used two handed
Aegis - shield of Athena and Zeus, indestructible, possesses Medusa's head that turns mortals to stone can only be activated by the user

1. I don't think the Amazons should worship any male gods, it doesn't make sense for their characters
2. I can't think of anything more anti-thetical to Diana's character than being a general
3. I don't think Diana should ever wield a sword, and a shield is completely redundant when she has the bracelets

[AmiMizuno]

I mean Diana has used Swords and Shields at times depending on the battle. It depends on the situation. With the bulletproof, it just shows that she isn't easy to take down. Not all powers add everything to their character. I mean in Superman has a lot of powers that add nothing. Even Batman. It just symbolizes something else. Diana being able to fly and bulletproof just shows other things. A lot of characters fly and that doesn't make them any less generic. How Diana flies can be important. Diana was made to somewhat be equal to Superman. So that is important. Not everything add character rather shows us what powers the characters have. Starfire is bulletproof and that adds nothing to her character. Just adds on how tough she truly is.

[Perseus]

Because her being able to fly and being bulletproof don't add anything to her character and take away iconic parts of her. They make her less unique and more generic.

Actually being able to fly opened a lot of doors creatively speaking for her. She could do things and go to places that she normally couldn't before hand. Its a legitimate addition of power that has only ever helped her stories and popularity. And being bulletproof doesn't take away anything from her; if anything it means that writers need to start being a bit more creative when it comes to putting Diana in harms way.

You cannot have it both ways. You can't have a character that is "stronger than Herakles and swifter than Hermes" and have her be in a situation where some guy or villain with a gun can harm her, its a mind boggling creative decision. There has only ever been bad results. The bullet would be stationary in comparison to her speed. She's survived god attacks, star explosions, nukes, and hits from beings like Doomsday and Darkseid; but you want a little metal thing to hurt her for no reason but "its always been that way". And for the record, Marston not once had her get shot to prove she wasn't bulletproof, its a weakness arbitrarily placed on her. Let it go and do something better.

1. I think that the amazons Not worshiping male gods on the basis that they are male, is antithetical to the amazon way.
2. The ability to make decisions in war and lead warriors into battle isn't in line with who Diana is? I'm not talking about some stiff in a chair making boys fight his own wars, I'm talking about someone in the field leading the charge. There was a whole scene about this in the first movie.
3. Look, every now and again she uses weapons ok. Even in the golden age she's used swords and shields. Should she use then all the time, like she does now? NO. But, they are a part of her tools now, so lets make them worth something.

Loved this and your last post. They are sooooo spot-on!!

This is how I see Diana as well. Thank you for putting all of this into words!!

Being equal to Superman doesn't require her to copy everything about him. Making them too similar just hurts Diana.

No, being able to Fly did not add anything to her, because she already had a super advanced vehicle that could take her anywhere the plot needs her to go.

And being bulletproof makes it completely contrived for her to deflect bullets with her bracelets, and that's one of her most iconic elements. Making her vulnerable to bullets is much better for her character.

If a guy with a hi tech gun can be one of the Flash's most iconic enemies, Diana can have issues with bullets.

1. It makes sense for Amazons to be worshiping a bunch of rapists
2. Diana would never lead people into war because her goal would always be to end the war with the fewest amount of casualties as possible
3. Maybe you can come up with ways for her to use a sword that are in character, but the Shield offers nothing.

[AmiMizuno]

Not really when she has taken greater things to her skin. Also, she has used swords throughout her history so what are you talking about. Her fighting medusa. Her fighting other villains. Also, not all greek gods were rapists. Once again many other people who fly don't add anything is kind of a nitpick. Both had similar powers in the golden age for a time like breath and voice manipulative. We have in the golden age, in the silver age, and in the bronze age, Diana uses swords many times. It's due to the warrior culture. A shield often a large source of protection if you want her to fight medusa who can strike her with her hair she needs a sword and shield for other things. Diana has used Shield and Shields for her 79 years. Diana has survived her arm cut off and bombs. So why not swords and bullets? I'm not saying 100% but it can't kill her one-two three. That's all I'm saying.

SO let's go back to golden age Wonder Woman is what you're saying? She can't fly. Her main weakness would actually be her bracelets. The issue becomes Flash isn't Diana. Flash is speeder. He isn't a heavy hitter. You compare two different heroes. Diana has taken larger than life creatures and gods. Yet a bullet gets her. Seems kind of weird. The golden age has her be more Superhuman than Demigod now. So we just depower her more. But she also gains a lot more powers. Astral projection and able to speed so fast she can go to another dimension. Taken off her bracelets she gains more strength.


Batman is Bulletproof. All the men in JL are bulletproof now that are have quick healing. Diana doesn't have fast healing with bullets it seems. So things are just now dumb and weirder. Diana is both one of the strongest and weakest She can't take a bullet yet her other main 7 can. Doesn't that seem wrong? Over time they couldn't keep things the same so Diana and Superman had to have villains bigger than life. Same with Batman and the other. If Batman can take off a magician Villian why can't Diana take a bullet? Weou c have Dc allowing Bruce to do everything but Diana can't be bulletproof? U can't justify the fact that Diana really is weaker when you see how the others are fine being able to go with a bullet

3. Maybe you can come up with ways for her to use a sword that are in character, but the Shield offers nothing.

She isn't copying everything about Superman. Superman and Wonder Woman have very few powers in common with each other when you actually bother to look at them. A character being bulletproof or being able to fly =/= Superman clone.

Actually it did, Diana could explore the world as she pleased, no jet no problem. Said super advanced vehicle is constantly made fun off. Why does she need the jet if she can fly? Why have her need it when she can do it on her own power? I mean its Flying, dude. As characters grow and evolve, powers are removed or added, in this case Diana eventually got sustained flight. Now she had more options in fights or rescues or any mission; writers and artists could do a lot more with her on the page.

You only think of bullets don't you? any other projectile just past over doesn't it. Magic blasts, green lantern projectiles, laser beams, light, all that stuff she doesn't block any more to you? Nobody has a valid reason for a bullet weakness outside of "Its just always been there". We have already had this debate in the controversial opinions thread.

Mirror master uses reflections and tricks to get to flash and flash doesn't go 100% against a human guy. Also, the implication of high-tech guns implies things faster than normal bullets. And you don't just "turn off" your durability.

1.Aphrodite is a serial rapist that tortures small animals to make love potions. Hera attacks the CHILDREN of the women whom her husband has slept with. Athena is responsible for both Arachne and Medusa's punishments. Artemis is instantly violent to trespassers. There are very few Gods that are "good" by our standards. Also that's incredibly sexist to assume that all men are rapist, gods included. Also, where did I say that the amazons worship Zeus? or ignore all the things he or Apollo have done? I just listed the Gods that would give Diana her powers and what they are.
2. And I'm sure she does that all by herself with no ones support.
3. The shield is another tool, that's it. It offers a larger area of protection than her wrists. She could once create the shield by putting the gauntlets together and I put it to where she can summon it from her gauntlets, this is the same thing.

[AmiMizuno]

Diana flying and being bulletproof would be the only thing they share. Also, Other heroes are bulletproof. Billy is Bulletproof,Starfire, and Aquaman. Diana has a healing factor but they don't use it to a great deal. If BAtman can be bulletproof and other heroes why not Diana. There isn't a real reason other than it's a thing. She had greater villains than a gangster. We have humans villains who are powerful because of how smart they are. So even if she is or isn't bulletproof we still have that. You focus so much on bullets yet she been cut with laser are still pierce things. We have other weaknesses she has had. So why can't we make those work? Superman couldn't fly for a while. So then a radio show and the fleshier cartoon changed that.

1. Diana's a magical hero. Being hurt by bullets while shrugging off nukes isn't remotely contradictory for that kind of character.
2. The amazons should not be a warrior culture. It's the opposite of what they were created to be

Actually it did, Diana could explore the world as she pleased, no jet no problem. Said super advanced vehicle is constantly made fun off. Why does she need the jet if she can fly? Why have her need it when she can do it on her own power? I mean its Flying, dude. As characters grow and evolve, powers are removed or added, in this case Diana eventually got sustained flight. Now she had more options in fights or rescues or any mission; writers and artists could do a lot more with her on the page.

1. You have described nothing that self-powered flight can do that the jet can't.
2. If they make fun of the invisible jet, they're not worth listening to. They suffer from a terminal lack of imagination.
3. That's the problem, Self-powered flight gives the writers fewer options. If she can fly under her own power. you can never tell a story where Diana gets stuck in one place. Self-powered flight takes options away from Diana, removes stories that could be told.

You only think of bullets don't you? any other projectile just past over doesn't it. Magic blasts, green lantern projectiles, laser beams, light, all that stuff she doesn't block any more to you? Nobody has a valid reason for a bullet weakness outside of "Its just always been there". We have already had this debate in the controversial opinions thread.

Diana being vulnerable to bullets is much easier for writers to use in stories than magic blasts or lasers. You don't need to explain why bad guys have access to bullets

Mirror master uses reflections and tricks to get to flash and flash doesn't go 100% against a human guy. Also, the implication of high-tech guns implies things faster than normal bullets. And you don't just "turn off" your durability.

Magical durability doesn't work like scientific durability.

[AmiMizuno]

Can't they be both? They are warriors but they don't go to wars or anything. They are always trained to fight for the worst. Like Diana says she always tries to wound her enemies before going violent. Once again the Amazons were originally in Marston's created to counter Ares and so if needed they did fight Ares. Their peace was for others not just for themselves. You are saying something that really isn't 100% true. They were created for peace yes but also didn't want to be in our world. Not only that but they wanted to keep their culture alive. Yes they aren't just warriors but did so to protect the world and live peacefully on their own

NOt being able to fly adds nothing also. Batman can fly with some of his suits. Not being able to fly does limit what she can do now. Yes, she has the jet but not when it has been broken she has nothing to do.You seem to be nitpicking at times. From Marston to know they were warrior women. So what you're saying isn't true. Warriors of Peace. For they don't go on the violence they are just there to wound and arrest the evils. There is also the doom gate or ares

1. Diana already has a built in methods for dealing with bullets and for travelling that are iconic to her character. Giving her flight and bullet proof durability make those redundant and take away from Diana's uniqueness.

And in all of the conversations I've had on this topic, tell me what her being able to fly or be immune to bullets adds to her character. Not a single thing.

2. Listing other characters who are bullet proof is just proving that making Diana bullet proof takes away from her uniqueness

3. Batman's not bullet proof, he wears body armor.

4. Being vulnerable to bullets makes it easier to show case her enemies intelligence, because it makes that they have to use her weakness in a clever way instead of just being randomly capable of making weapons that can hurt Diana.

EDIT

NOt being able to fly adds nothing also. Batman can fly with some of his suits. Not being able to fly does limit what she can do now. Yes, she has the jet but not when it has been broken she has nothing to do.You seem to be nitpicking at times

Yes, not being able to fly does limit Diana, and those limitations add more options to the story. If Diana can't fly without the jet, it means that author can take away her ability to travel long distances easily if the story needs that to happen
