Anaya is an Amazon of Bana-Mighdall and was a lover to Iphthime, an Amazon of Themyscira.
History
With Falizia and Bitari, Anaya protested the coronation of outsider Donna Troy when the Banas were still being snubbed in all ways; Anaya's protests were not very strong. She was more interested in learning photography from Donna, and Donna obliged.
Anaya was injured in a bomb blast by Aella's hardliners. In the hospital, Anaya's girlfriend Iphthime confessed that she had something to do with the blast .[1] After the Civil War, Iphthime hoped to rekindle her relationship with the still recovering Anaya, but was denied.[2]
Anaya helped in the defense of Earth during Our Worlds at War. She released all prisoners from the Civil War, including Iphthime, so they could participate in the battle.[3]
