Centennia was a major superhero of Reality Z-25 31-H, considered among the most powerful. Competent and unflappable, she derived her super-strenght, flight, and apparent immortality from her half-alien heritage, and was considered New York City's greatest protectors against supervillainous threats.
Description
Physical appearance
Centennia was a tall, elegant white woman with golden hair. Owing to her age, she dressed in fashions reminiscent of her youth in the 1920s, though never to the point of seeming anachronistic. She also had a superhero outfit which included golden bracelets and a green cape, although she “felt a bit silly in it”, and only wore it for practicality (it was much more durable than her civilian clothes).

Personality
Centennia was calm and business-like in the face of danger, largely because very few things could be actual threats to her safety. Nevertheless, she felt bored and listless in the absence of supervillains to fight or mysteries to solve. (COMIC: Sausage-Fest!)
Powers & abilities
Centennia displayed a form of invulnerability, the ability to fly under her own power, and inhuman strength. She was also immortal, not having visiby aged since the 1920s. The combination of her strength and invulnerability allowed her to barrel through walls to gain entry to a building if necessary.
She was capable of being charming and seductive for the sake of extracting information covertly, despite almost never smiling in her own time. She was also an expert at rope-skipping. Centennia seemed to have some kind of Fourth Wall Awareness, as she sometimes winked at “no one” when she made a joke that only she or someone familiar with her recent adventures could have been able to get.

Biography
Origins
Centennia was conceived in the Autumn of 1899 by a single woman and a mysterious gentleman she met at a society ball, who was actually an extraterrestrial explorer investigating humanity, who wanted to experience human love before he left Earth. Though the two knew each other for just one night, Centennia's mother became pregnant with the hybrid child, something she was very pleased with. (COMIC: A Night to Remember)
Defeating Nefario
In Summer of 2012, having defended New York City for a hundred years, a bored Centennia agreed to investigate the systematic theft of kosher sausages in the City for lack of a more interesting case. After due investigation, she discovered that this was in fact a supervillain plot, with the evil magician Nefario having created a Sausage Golem he intended to animate to wreak havoc. Centennia destroyed the golem before he could finish the spell, however, and arrested Nefario and his henchmen. She then met up with the friend who'd informed her of the sausage-thefts, though she refused his offer of getting a hot dog. (COMIC: Sausage-Fest!)
With Captain Perfect
At some point, Centennia had an affair with fellow paragon and superhero, Captain Perfect. After intimate images of them in bed together were leaked, there was a scandal, although one from which both's reputations were able to recover in time. Centennia was one of the figures depicted in a biopic of the Captain, leading to the real Centennia attending the premiere alongside the Captain. (COMIC: Interview With A Superhero) A different superheroic Captain, Captain Evening, attempted to reach her around the same time to get her to accompany the Odds on a mission to England to halt Insecto's attempted invasion of a town, but he didn't manage to get in touch with her.
