Description

Color refined rendition of Aurora Star from "Star Maidens" in her new costume

Jasmine Webb Starling is a high school student from the usually peaceful town of Aurora, Oregon who dreams of becoming a pop star, but ended up as Earth's last hope against an ancient evil entity who she accidentally released from its' tomb. On a summer trip of the Arctic Circle on an expedition with her archeologist mother and her estranged older sister, a liaison officer with the Global Weather Bureau, Jasmine stumbled upon an ancient tomb once buried upon the snow covered glaciers of the area her mother and her research team were investigating weeks earlier. In a sense of curiosity and amazement, she went underground to find a secluded room what is believed to be an ancient control room. Her unfortunate trademark klutziness accidentally activated a release switch which opened the tomb, releasing a dark alien entity and its' minions which were all sealed there a thousand years ago. Jasmine ran in a panic and somehow escaped before the entity reached the surfaced and exploded into the atmosphere spreading its' reach across the globe.

Days later, tired and scared out of her wits, Jasmine returned home to rest for another lousy day doing homework. When suddenly, a small spec of light appeared in front of her. The light soon revealed herself as a fairy named Crystalia, who was in charge of the ancient tomb since it sealed the dark entity long ago before Jasmine released it. Knowing that Jasmine is responsible of her blunder, Crystalia assigned her the massive responsibility to return the entity back to the tomb and reseal it for good. To aid Jasmine on her mission, Crystalia gave Jasmine a super suit and superhuman abilities to help confront the entity and its' minions and assigned her the title of Star Maiden, a group of intergalactic female warriors who once were the guardian of the cosmos protecting their citizens and their worlds from various evil threats. (Crystalia used to be one of them long ago before she was assigned to the tomb). Ecstatic and overly excited, Jasmine used this opportunity to became a crime fighter and a public heroine, much to the dismay of Crystalia, who warned Jasmine that she can only use her powers to fight the entity's dark minions. Somehow Jasmine ignores her guardian's orders, and soon became a beloved idol upon the citizens of Aurora. Despite that, Jasmine still has to continue her responsibilities capturing and defeat the entity and its' evil plans around the world. Joined by her friend and classmate Ayeko Carter, and Regina Dovehart, a princess from a tiny European nation, and then soon a host of others who would help her crusade, Jasmine now fights for love, peace and justice as the super powered guardian, Aurora Star.

Jasmine is upbeat, cheerful, and always likes to make friends. Unfortunately she is also klutzy and at times occasionally lazy especially during school days (accept of course music class). She also has a knack for playfully teasing her friends, especially her Star Maiden comrades, who are easily frustrated by her. She can be easily distracted, especially during combat, by the usually things a girl always wanted: boys, shopping and food. But when she gets hyped, she can fully concentrate on the subject ahead, although it is only one subject at a time. When push comes to shove, Aurora can risk her life to protect her friends and family from danger. She is also capable, when not distracted, to do many heroic deeds. Although Aurora initially thinks being a superhero would erase her dreams of being a pop idol, she hopes she would use her super heroics to someday help reached her goals. Her favorite hobbies are songwriting, dancing, and practicing her signing. Her favorite food is peach cobbler with whipped cream.

As with all other Star Maidens, Aurora's powers include flight, super-speed, enhanced strength, enhanced powered vision (emitting a tractor beam) and emitting power blasts from her hands. She is equipped with an “smart” aura that can protect her with projectile weapons and explosives. She's is armed with a lightsaber for melee attacks, especially against other (rogue) Star Maidens (which are optional and can be generated after being transformed.) Although she had no hand-to-hand or sword fighting traing at first, she constantly receives fencing and Judo lessons from Regina four times a week and between Maiden duties, if she is not constantly lazy in attending those lessons. She can transform from her civilian identity to her powered armor and back by spinning in super-speed (same transformation as her other two friends.)

NOTE: Due to possible copyright infringement by the creators of Galaxy Fraulein Yuna, I have to change Aurora Star's costume. I'm planning to create a new costume for Red Nebula as well. I hope you like the new one.

EDIT - 5/2/10: Redrawn new version with easier pose
