Hair: Jayna has a short bobbed black haircut. Sometimes, she likes to put in little hairpins and flowers and wear hats to cover her pointed ears. Using her shape-shifting ability to disguise her appearance all day can be exhausting, so conventional means like hats and bandannas are welcome.
Eyes: Smiling, wide-set violet eyes she likes to decorate with kohl eyeliner and mascara. She's taken it to wearing makeup like the other Earth women to blend in, even if her shape-shifting ability can allow for nearly flawless skin.
Height: 5'3''
Weight: 112 lbs
Distinguishing Marks: Pointed 'Vulcan' ears
Appearance: Jayna has been told she looks a lot like her mother. She has very 'elven' features such as a pointed nose, sharp features and highly-arched brows. She isn't very tall, standing shorter than her brother (but still boasting she's the older twin!) Like her brother, they share the same dark hair, olive skin, and eye color. As twins, they appear very similar, and when they were children, they could easily masquerade as the other. Now, they immediately give the sense that they are related, but are never confused for the other anymore.

Likes:

* hairpins
* ping pong
* flavored lip gloss
* saving teens!
Dislikes:
* People who exploit others
* being called short
* Being away from Zan for extended periods of time
* Being called the youngest twin
* Zan's gym socks
Personality: Jayna is the type to easily give compliments on what she sees, making her come across as sickeningly sweet. She learned a lot of her English phrases from 70s television and uses expressions like "Jupiters!" which can come across as extremely campy sometimes. She's friendly, optimistic, and extremely competitive as well.
Jayna has grown up with her brother her entire life, never spending one moment from his apart. Consequently, she feels rather unsure of herself without him, seeing the pair of them as one complete set. She doesn't hide anything from him and has become extremely emotionally dependent on him being there. She can't imagine a life without him and constantly tries to assure herself as the older, motherly twin. Jayna sometimes can also have the need to be stubbornly right and can blindly be unable to differentiate from good and bad, sometimes arresting the wrong perp for a crime. Being rather fresh to earth, she's a bit naive, extremely curious, and misguided at times.
"With great power comes great responsibility"
Powers: Jayne can transform into any animal, mythic or existing, so long as she has a picture of the critter in question in her mind. Her powers are limited by contact with her twin, Zan. She can still speak in her animal forms as well. Her favorite forms are usually an eagle, modeled after the American symbol of liberty, which she greatly admires for its principles on the importance of the individual, equal rights and freedom for all, qualities that all resonate with her.
Weapons n/a. They had a space ship once. It crashed. She and Zan have a translator device to speak Earth's language in the mean time while they learn it themselves.
Strengths/Abilities:
* Speaks Exxorian and Interglac
* Strengths of an athletic human
* Acrobatic
Weaknesses: Jayna is limited in her transformation abilities by her contact with her twin Zan. She needs to touch him and shout the words, Wonder Twin powers, activate! to cue the process.

History: Zan and Jayna were born on the planet Exxor to their parents Rua and Fonab. Rua and Fonab soon found out that their children had a rare set of powers in them to change their forms. Zan could morph himself into any form of water, and Jayna mimicked the shape and abilities of any creature. The four of them were a very happy family until a terrible plague swept over Exxor, claiming the lives of much of the population. Zan and Jayna were consequently orphaned.
Their rare powers were a result of recessive genes within their race, but the surviving members of Exxor did not want to adopt what they saw as 'mutant' children. A man, Dentwil, saw potential in the twins as members of his traveling circus. Zan and Jayna then grew up on the road, performing for adoring crowds and making Dentwil lots of money. They didn't know Dentwil was actually exploiting them, but they couldn't leave until they were twenty years old because of Exxorian law legally labeling them as his property.
Times weren't always hard for the twins, though. They met a kind man at the circus as well, Illik, who became something of a surrogate father towards them. It was through him they met their best friend Gleek the space monkey.
Wanting more, when the twins approached Dentwil about receiving wages for their performances, the man refused. He called Zan and Jayna his 'private property'. They were able to escape from him after stealing one of the circus's spaceships and trying to get as far away as possible from Dentwil and the people who shunned them.
The twins landed on Earth (more like crashed), taking Gleek with them, and settled into Gotham around the time the worlds merged. Inspired by the heroes of Earth, they took on the mantle of crime fighting for themselves, with varied success.
