The name of the island they found me on is Lian-Yu. It's Mandarin for "Purgatory." I've been "stranded" here for 5-years. I've dreamt of my rescue every cold black night since then. For 5 years, I have had only one thought, one goal... survive... Survive and one day return home. The island held many dangers. To live, I had to make myself more than what I was, to forge myself into a weapon. I am returning not the boy who was shipwrecked but the man who will bring justice to those who have poisoned my city. My name is Adrian Landry

The Rise of Athena (An Arrow: Season 1 Fanfiction)
My name is Evelyn Rose Queen. The second child of Robert and Moira Queen. I'm two years younger than my brother Oliver, and 15 years older than my sister, Thea. I love my life. If anyone were to ask me if I'm rich, I'd say I'm comfortable, if not happy, 'cause that's what all rich people say. My dad, Robert, is a business-man who practically built his own enterprise, Queen Consolidated, and my mom helps him run the business, as well as helping take care of us rowdy group known as the Queen kids. When I say rowdy I mean really rowdy. Oliver, or Ollie as I call him, is the eldest, and he's a real party animal. He gets drunk and wakes up in strange places all the time, mostly after a 'sleepover' with a girl he literally just met. At least, that's what it was called to deter my curiosity. Not that I didn't know what it meant, though. He's a playboy, or at least that's what Mom and Dad call him. He gets in heaps of trouble with the cops and stuff, though. I like to party, but not as much as Oliver. A good drink and some dancing normally gets me going. I hate boys that flirt with me excessively. Also, I know a tad bit of karate, which helps me get out of some sticky situations. Thea's the youngest, so she doesn't really party much. Not at all, actually. I'm happy. I wouldn't trade my life for the world. I get straight A's, I'm a very good student and I love people, if they're not trying to get to me for my family's money in any way, shape or form. Good people can be hard to come by these days. But things were about to change - and the day that I got the news that my brother Oliver's boat, The Queen's Gambit, went down in international waters 2,100 nautical miles east of Australia, that was the day my life changed...Complete
A Dangerous Love: Athena and Prometheus (An Arrow: Season 5 Fanfiction)
Malcolm Merlyn. Slade Wilson. Ra's Al Ghul. Damien Darhk. All the villains I've fought, at one time or another. All the villains I've fought by my brother's side as Athena. Him as the Green Arrow. I never thought I'd have to juggle my personal life with my vigilante life. Now that Oliver is the mayor of Starling City, I have to do just that. I never thought I'd find love either, or at least a shot at it. But when I met District Attorney Adrian Chase at my brother's mayoral office in Starling City, I didn't think I'd be able to handle love. I didn't think I'd be able to keep secrets, or train new recruits whilst handling a love life and a job. I didn't think I'd have to tell lies, or bear pain when everything turned on its head, forcing me to choose my allegiances, to choose between the man I loved or the team that had been like family to me. But people will do crazy things for love. Sometimes dangerous, scary or even downright detrimental. But that's my life now. That's the path my adventure as Evelyn Queen and Athena has to take.Complete

Ruthless and set on making the Flash's life miserable, Savitar never would have pictured himself caught in a decision where he was forced to choose between getting the revenge he's been working towards or leaving it all behind to be with the one he loved. Unfortunately, the problems between Savitar and Y/N went even farther. Team Flash began to turn on their newly acquired member and even more gruesome was that someone had to die because of it.

5/--/18: #2 in #theflash 6/- -/19: #7 in #theflash 8/28/19: #1 in #dccomics 5/6/21: #3 in #greenarrow She can control time. Speed it up, slow it down, or just plain stop it. Yes, sounds awesome right? Well, it can be, but it also can't be. She's a metahuman. Yep, you heard right. She was struck with that lighting in the same night Barry Allen was. Then, after the nine months of being in the hospital, she woke up. Then she ran. Her emotions hit, and she temporarily slowed down time in order for her to make a five mile walk in under three minutes. Call it, un-super speed if you'd like. She was confused. She had no clue how that happened, but she had to find how. Now, she was extremely smart. She did research. Then she saw many reports on the news about this man called "The Streak". She thought it was... Odd. The whole concept of superheroes and super humans. It was to unreal and childish for her. She didn't like the title 'superhero'. Until one night, the masked man, whose name has been recently changed to "The Flash", showed up on one of her missions. But ever since then her life hasn't been close to the same.
