Explanation of the conversion: I did this conversion based on the events of the 1984 film Supergirl. This write up is based on the idea that after the film Kara could return to Earth and become a super-heroine.

Watching the film carefully, I made this write up able to do everything Kara did. The Multipower represents the various powers she displayed in the film. I decided to give her Instant Change because she seemed to be able to change her clothes at will, and even generate a wig and backpack in the blink of an eye. Except for her strength and resistance to harm she didn't tend to use different powers at the same time. The two exceptions to this is when he used her super hearing, x-ray vision and heat vision at the same time in the shower scene and when she was super-fast and could fly in the big battle with Selena at the end. The reserve has enough points to do these tricks. It should be noted that the inability to see through lead and the Susceptibility to kryptonite were not in the film, but I added them since they are classic to the Superman lore.

It should be noted that her Multipower contains some Special powers, and requires the permission of the game master.

Kara History: Kara was a teenage girl who grew up in Argo City, the last surviving city of the dead planet Krypton, and which existed in inner space. Argo City was powered by a device called the Omega Hedron, which Kara accidentally lost while playing with it. She used the Binary Chute to follow the Hedron to the planet Earth, where he cousin Kal-El lived in the guises of Clark Kent and Superman.

Once on Earth she had difficulty tracking the Hedron, so she joined a school for girls in Midvale as Linda Lee. As Linda she met her soon-to-be friends Lucy Lane and Jimmy Olsen. She also searched for the Hedron as Supergirl, wearing a costume modeled after her cousin's Superman suit.

Kara confronted the villainous Madame Selena, who was using the Hedron to cast black magic in order to take over the world. During her battles she met and fell in love with a landscaper named Ethan, who Selena lusted after.

After defeating Selena she said goodbye to Ethan, who had guessed that Linda and Supergirl were the same person, and returned the Hedron to Argo City.

Trivia: In the 1984 Supergirl film, the part of Kara is played by actress Helen Slater.

Powers: Kara is a Kryptonian, a human looking alien. She has advanced knowledge of mathematics and geometry, as well as the ability to compute equations in her head as fast as any computer.

Powers Kara gains superhuman powers when exposed to Earth's sun. This gives her enhanced strength enabling her to lift a dozen tons at least, as well as making her invulnerable to conventional damage. While powered up Kara can also manifest a number of unusual powers. She can fly at great speeds or increase her speed of movement to incredible levels. She can exhale damaging blasts of cold. She can fire heat beams from her eyes and see through all things except lead. She can greatly enhance her hearing if she wants to. Kara is susceptible to the radiation of the rare space element called kryptonite.
