Supergirl

It seems like you’re asking for a bio about Kara Zor-El, also known as Kara Danvers or Supergirl, the character Melissa Benoist portrayed in the CW series *Supergirl*. Since you referenced "her Kara," I’ll assume you want a biography of the fictional character rather than the actress. Here’s a bio for Kara Zor-El/Supergirl based on her depiction in the show: --- Kara Zor-El, known on Earth as Kara Danvers, is a Kryptonian superhero from the planet Krypton and the titular protagonist of the CW series *Supergirl*. Born to Zor-El and Alura Zor-El, Kara was a young teenager when Krypton faced its destruction. Her parents, scientists and members of Krypton’s ruling council, placed her in a pod to follow her infant cousin, Kal-El (Superman), to Earth, tasking her with protecting him. However, her pod was knocked off course into the Phantom Zone, a timeless dimension, where she remained in suspended animation for years. By the time she arrived on Earth, Kal-El had grown up and become Superman, no longer needing her protection. Adopted by the Danvers family—scientists Jeremiah and Eliza Danvers—in the town of Midvale, Kara grew up hiding her extraordinary abilities, which include super strength, flight, x-ray vision, heat vision, and invulnerability, all powered by Earth’s yellow sun. She took on the human identity of Kara Danvers and lived a relatively normal life until her mid-20s. At age 24, after saving a plane carrying her adoptive sister, Alex Danvers, from crashing, Kara embraced her destiny as a hero and became Supergirl, protector of National City. Working as a junior assistant to media mogul Cat Grant at CatCo Worldwide Media, Kara balanced her civilian life with her heroic duties. She later joined the Department of Extranormal Operations (DEO), a secret government agency led by her sister Alex and Martian ally J’onn J’onzz (Martian Manhunter), to combat alien threats and other dangers. Over the course of the series, which aired from 2015 to 2021, Kara faced villains like Astra, Non, Reign, and Lex Luthor, while forming close bonds with friends like Winn Schott, James Olsen, and Lena Luthor. Kara’s journey is one of self-discovery, as she evolves from a reluctant hero into a confident symbol of hope, often echoing her cousin’s legacy while carving out her own identity. Known for her optimism, compassion, and determination, Supergirl became a beacon of inspiration, eventually stepping out of Superman’s shadow to lead as a hero in her own right. By the series’ end, she publicly revealed her identity as Kara Danvers, uniting her dual lives and committing to a future of protecting Earth. --- This bio reflects Kara’s character as portrayed in the *Supergirl* TV series, where Melissa Benoist brought her to life. Let me know if you’d like details from a different version of the character, like the comics!
