Damia Tathouris is the Champion, a costumed warrior who defends the innocent against crime and other threats. It is open to debate whether she can be classified as a posthuman or merely a human making use of advanced, alien technology. She is a Level Four Paranormal according to the Danaan Paranormal Classification System.

Damia participated in a competition designed to select a new champion for her homeland of Hipolis and a representative to the outside world. This position was tied to the official position of Ambassador to the United Nations. When Damia one, she was gifted with artifacts alleged to have been blessed by saints and heroes. Damia soon found that these artifacts gave her the ability to command the truth, preternatural strength, preternatural speed, flight, and semi-impermeable skin. These artifacts were later revealed to have been artifacts of Coari technology, given to the people of Earth to be used to do good and fight evil. In keeping with her duty as a champion of her nation and a representative of its moral values to the world, Damia donned a colorful uniform and now uses the powers bestowed upon her to fight evil.

As the Champion, Damia has become something of a feminist icon. She actively encourages young women to be more independent, assert themselves, and expand their horizons. She also teaches women self-defense techniques and contributes heavily to a number of charities for abused women.
