| ⚫ | |||
| − | The Amazons bear an identical outward physical form and appearance to that of [[human]] females (as [[Zeus]] created them in the image of [[Olympian God]]desses). However, they are otherwise quite different from normal women, due to their superior physical attributes, as well as their superior skills (to most humans) in armed and hand-to-hand combat. Whilst living in their homeland of [[Themyscira]], Amazons are incapable of growing old or being affected by diseases, but can still be slain or killed via gunshots or extremely sharp piercing weapons. |

| − | ===Created=== |
||
| − | The Amazons were created by [[Zeus]] shortly after his creation of [[human]]ity. |

||
| − | Roughly 30 millennia BCE (25 millennia before the [[War of the Gods]]), the Amazons joined with the [[Atlantean]]s and [[human]]ity in fighting off an invasion of [[Earth]] by [[Steppenwolf]] and his massive [[Parademon]] army. Before being forced to depart, [[Steppenwolf]] left behind three [[Mother Box]]es, and each of the three factions of the army that helped save Earth would be given one of them. |

||
| − | In approximately 2980s BCE, mere months after the [[War of the Gods]], [[Diana]] was born as the [[Olympian God|demigoddess]] daughter of [[Olympian God]] King [[Zeus]] and the Queen of the Amazons, [[Hippolyta]]. Diana would be trained in combat tactics by [[Menalippe]], becoming remarkably skilled in her own right. |
