Triplicate Girl is a superheroine in the DC Comics universe and a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st century. She first appeared in Teen Titans/Legion Special #1 (November 2004).
Character history
The original Triplicate Girl first appeared in Action Comics #276 (May 1961). She later became Duo Damsel (when one of her bodies was destroyed) in Adventure Comics #341 (February 1966) and eventually just Luornu Durgo, when her second body was destroyed. Her post-Zero Hour version was called Triad.
Origin
Triplicate Girl is the only inhabitant of the planet Cargg. Her origin is a mystery. All she recalls is waking up alone amongst the ruins of her planet. After weeks of loneliness, she discovers that she has the ability to divide herself into two, then three, then six, then more individuals with a shared consciousness. Eventually, her entire planet was repopulated with duplicates of herself. When a United Planets craft arrives on Cargg, three of these duplicates are sent out as emissaries and subsequently join the Legion as Triplicate Girl.
Powers
Triplicate Girl has the ability to split into 3 identical bodies. The "prime" Triplicate Girl, who remained on Cargg, can divide into numerous bodies(the exact amount has yet to be revealed). When Triplicate Girl merges into 1 body, she gains the memories and knowledge that her divided selves obtained.
Unlike Triad, no distinction between her different selves has been established, and their costumes are identical.
