Newbie with Question on AU Background

[escapedprincess]

I am a complete newbie to the game and I have a question. I'm planning on apping this girl here, Starfire from DC Comics (80's version). However, I was wondering what other people had done for alien characters since she is by no means human (just humanoid). So I was wondering what possibilities there are for her AU background that fit in the setting. If anyone wants her canon bio for more information about her specifically, just let me know.

Yeah that can easily be an exotic race from a different area or an alien outright. The former is a bit easier to finagle than the latter, the area just to the west of Dagaria is desert heavy (geographic equivalent of the middle east, moving into the Mediterranean) so if you wanted she could easily be from the west, very hot areas seem to lend themselves well to her ability set.

Oooo, that could work. It would probably easier to work in more of her canon back story with something like that too. Oddly enough she is mistaken for being Mediterranean in canon at some point. So that might be the best area for her to be from.
