 Main article: Amazons

Io is an Amazon, one of a race of immortal warrior women that live on the mystically hidden island of Themyscira. The Amazons were created by a coterie of Olympian gods over three thousand years ago, reincarnated from the souls of women who had been killed through acts of male agression.

The Amazons, led by Hippolyta, their queen, were to serve the Olympian gods in proselytical manner, spreading their principles and devotion to a largely barbarian world. They were given a city-state in Greece, called Themyscira, where they thrived for several years before they were attacked by the forces of Heracles, and were saved only through the intervention of the gods.

In repayment for their rescue, the Amazons were sent far away from their home, to a mystical, paradisal island in uncharted oceans. There the Amazons took up a new gods-given purpose -- to guard the Earth from a terrible evil buried beneath the island.

For thousands of years the Amazons stayed islolated from humanity, until about forty years ago, when Diana Trevor, an American airplane pilot, crash-landed off-shore.
