During a dig in Greece, archeologist Violet Verreaux finds a hidden chamber; a long-lost Temple of Athena. Within the temple is a statue which upon sits The Wings of the Champion - a legendary relic said to bestow upon the wearer the blessings of Athena.
Donning the wings, Violet is granted flight, enhanced speed, strength, durability, and wisdom.
Violet takes on the Goddess’s sigil, the owl, and her name, becoming Athena, Champion of the Goddess!
