Who is Aresia?

Major Story Arcs Aresia's New Injustice Gang Aresia was raised and gifted by the Olympian gods during her stay on Themyscira , she was taught and trained alongside the rest of them, including Diana. Part of Aresia's training, or tests, was to live by herself in complete solitude. During that time, no Amazon is to come check up or talk with her--and Aresia took this time to read books she had found about how to make a poison that affected only the males of the world. She escaped from the tower and began her plans. In order to start she needed to form a gang who she used as pawns. She took up the members of the now-defunct Injustice Gang--all, sans Lex Luthor, The Joker, Ultra Humanite, and Cheetah, and replacing one of them with a new female member, Tsukuri. Her new gang assisted her with the heist, but the entire gang was stopped by Batman. Aresia, unlike the other members of her gang, bested Batman with ease and incapacitated him.
