Very nice. I like the idea of Multi-generational heroes in Paragon City.
Thank you for taking the time to write this.

Note to self: I need to visit more of the RP forum regularly or keep missing good background reads like this one.
I agree with Valor. When will we get to see Glory-Girl at PCU? And is there a screenshot of the costume?
Edit: Found a picture you posted of Glory-Girl. I especially like the balance of colors, well done!

I updated her costume due to RP storyline events and will post the new one asap.
Thank you very much for the kind words. <3
Older costume of G.G.
Melanie Alexandra Burton born into a family legacy of heroes, lead a pretty unremarkable life. She is the 18 year old daughter of Sean Burton (Brother to American Maiden) and has watched her Aunt Betsy (American Maiden II) and her Uncle Robbie (All-Star Sentry) exploits protecting the streets of Paragon for years. She has always looked up to and idolized them both always wanting to be a hero like them. Not having super-powers or Military training, she spent most of her young life training in gymnastics, martial arts and dancing to prepare her mind and body to see her dream come true.
She was always an excellent student in school maintaining a 4.0 average even while heavily involved with extracurricular activities (honor society, yearbook committee, chorus, and cheer squad to name a few).
Her Uncle (All-Star Sentry) always called her his little scrapper while helping her fashion a cape and mask to run around in when she was very young (appox. 6 or 7).After graduation (HS) she applied to PCU as a freshman and was accepted. Seeing this as her chance to fight for justice beside other members of her family she donned the "Red, White and Blue" that her other crime fighting relatives wear and made contact with her aunt Betsy who invited her to apply to the YGA where she hopes to carry on the tradition of duty and honor that the rest of her family has stood for over the generations. She jokingly called herself "Liberty's Darling" during a recent conversation with American Maiden, who thought the nickname suited her. One of the factors (besides her Aunt and Uncle) that made her decide to join the Spandex Brigade was the death of Statesman, an tragedy that deeply touched the young Melanie strengthening her resolve to become a hero, to honor the memory of such a great man and her Great-Grandmother the original American Maiden
She is the 3rd generation of heroes to emerge from the Burton line, her Father (Sean) supports her desire to carry on the tradition, her Mother however is concerned (understandably) for her daughter's safety. The fact that she walks the streets of Paragon City as the teenaged masked Patriot Glory-Girl is a secret kept between her and her Father.
Her costume reflects her age and her background, bearing the colors typical of the Burton families other patriotic heroes and heroines; it also reflects a bit of her personality, most notably her time as a cheerleader in High School, and her love for athletics and martial arts.She has recently undergone a change resulting from exposure to Hydra-Venom in the sewers under Paragon City, after making her extremely ill...this has increased her reflexes and speed to super-human levels (a very similar case of power "activation" to her favorite Aunt ironically).
