 ===A Secret Adventure===
 In 1996, Astra was recognized as possibly “the most famous, most powerful ten-year-old girl in the world.” However, while she excelled at being a superhero, she had difficulty relating to other children. She did not watch television, had never been to peer events, and had no friends her own age. On a journey home from a television interview, she spotted a group of schoolchildren playing hopscotch, Astra became obsessed with both the game and what it meant to be a “normal” kid. Thus, she “went on an adventure” of her own. An adventure so big to her way of thinking, she kept it secret from everyone, even her pet super-fish, [['ranium]].

 ===Teenage Astra===
-In the earth year 2000, [[Armageddon]], a 212th Century Scientist, schemed to destroy all the known universes. He had a twisted fear of his own death and decided when he died, he would take everything, every known atom of every known universe with him.  He was in the act of creating some kind of reverse big-bang event until the First Family arrived to thwart him. In a desperate gambit, Astra stopped him and save many universes, dimensions and worlds. Still, a great proportion of them remain in a jumbled status, defying the known limits of physical laws. They collected together in an area now known as the [[The_Gordian_Knot_(Location)|Gordian Knot]]. For the first few years, Astra prevented the caldera of the Knot from perishing by applying her energy-based skills to stabilize the tremendous forces being unleashed.

For the first few years, Astra prevented the caldera of the Knot from perishing by applying her energy-based skills to stabilize the tremendous forces being unleashed. But that was just the beginning to a more grand, and ongoing solution.
 ===College Years===
-In her continuing desire for a semblance of balanced, "normal" life,  Astra attended [[Tarleton College]] as just another high achieving student. Yet the same problems of being a well known celebrity accompanied her. Besides the expected awkward peer social interactions, she was constantly harassed by a notorious gossip magazine called the [[Inside Scoop]]. She had a bit of luck when she encountered a fellow student, [[Matt Zimmer]] in a dormitory lunch room He seemed like a nice guy, they became good friends(and more). Disappointingly, they broke up on graduation day and it was pretty obvious the reason was his unsavory betrayal, feeding gossip about Astra to the Scoop.

 ===Young Adult Years===
 As a young adult, Astra leads a busy life.  She remains an active member of the First Family, balancing team adventures with her private life and personal goals. She is also a member of the Seattle based super-hero team, the Reflex 6, but spends the bulk of her time working with specialists from all over the galaxy in the continuous efforts to unsnarl the maze of star systems tangled in the cosmically confusing area called the Gordian Knot. As a side bonus, the various cultures living there, gives her expanded opportunities to feel normal, just another super-powered soul among many in a crowd. Something she has craved for years.

	[[image:astraFurst.jpg\|150px\|left\|Astra daydreaming]]Born in 1986, Astra Furst's astonishing powers emerged while she was a toddler. From all appearances and accounts, she participated in First Family battles at a very young age, probably several years before her earliest published adventure ("[[Safeguards]]") occurred circa late 1995. As the newest member of the First Family, she became an instant media delight and childhood celebrity. As such, Astra’s adolescence was far from normal, cocooned to a private environment that centered almost exclusively on family related projects and activities. She was home-schooled by Mister Smartie, a holographic, computer-generated construct built by her grandfather, Dr. Augustus Furst. She also trained in the use of her powers and as a young child, regularly joined the First Family on their many adventures including serious super human confrontations with The Unholy Alliance, the nigh-omnipotent Thunderhead, and Silver Brain.
