The world of Earth-Bet is a gritty and dark place where individuals with superhuman abilities, known as parahumans, live amongst regular humans. The story is set in a dystopian future where parahumans are a part of everyday life, and their presence has drastically changed society.

The city of Brockton Bay is a major location and it serves as a microcosm of the larger world. The city is plagued by crime, corruption, and conflict as various factions of parahumans battle for control and influence.

The government has established the PRT (Parahuman Response Team) to regulate and monitor parahuman activity, but their efforts are often hampered by internal politics and external threats. with a wide range of parahuman powers and abilities on display. From super strength and enhanced durability to telekinesis and mind control, the powers of parahumans vary widely and often come with significant drawbacks and limitations.

Parahumans gain their abilities through trigger events, traumatic experiences that unlock latent powers within them. These powers often come with limitations or drawbacks, adding complexity to the characters and their struggles.

The society impacted by the presence of parahumans. Superpowered individuals are both feared and revered, with many parahumans operating as heroes, villains, or mercenaries.

Victoria Dallon, known publicly as Antares and formerly as Glory Girl, and her nickname Vicky is a cape superhero aligned with the Patrol Block and is a former member of the New Wave. She is the daughter of Carol and Mark Dallon, and the adoptive sister of Amy Dallon. She is a prominent character featured in Worm, and the main protagonist of Ward. Hero name was Glory girl and then Antares.

Victoria was a hot-tempered and prideful cape, partly as a result of her powers. She enjoyed fighting and was prone to using excessive force on her enemies. Despite this she believed in being a hero.

She was very protective of her family. She liked to give people the false impression that she was truly invulnerable.

She was taking a university course that offered information on parahumans, despite not being done with high school.

Despite being seen as a dumb blonde, Victoria shown moments of a sharp mind and ‘get it down’ additude. She Always wants to help many people. describing herself as "unfortunately afflicted with desire to help people" and noting that "you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar". While being always being know for confident and bold, she is very self conscious.

Unlike most capes, Victoria likes her powers and enjoys using them. preferring to fly and float instead of walking most of the times.

Victoria is a tall, curvy, platinum blonde, young woman. As Glory Girl, she wears a white one-piece dress that ends in a skirt at her mid-thigh with shorts underneath, an over-the shoulder cape, high boots and a golden tiara with spikes radiating from it.

there’s also another version of Victoria’s costume depending on the story Victoria crafted a new costume for herself, using designs she had long been working on. Two store-bought hoodies and some old armor of her father's were cannibalized to create it. The design was inspired by her old Glory Girl costume, her newly-reshaped forcefield, a desire to differentiate herself, and a practical need for increased protection because she was leaving her forcefield down more often, among other influences. It was intended to be weighty, but still form-fitting in the torso and arms.

The costume featured a hood and removable sleeves. The cloth was black with (eventually) white trim, re-purposed from a hoodie. The hood had metal decoration at the edge, a metal ornament at the peak of the hood with rays forking upward.

The armor of the costume was described as gold or white-gold. It had a flat breastplate with decorative "rays" in the center, overlapping a second piece of armor that covered her collarbone and upper breast. The armor around her legs was similarly decorated. Spikes projected from the shoulder pads, four parallel "rays" and then a fifth shorter one slightly apart, curving toward the front and leading into similar decoration on the breastplate. When she posed with her hands on her hood they pointed backwards.

A protective mask hung from the belt for use in serious situations.

The gloves were fingerless and decorated with back-swept spikes that were sharp enough to be used to cut things.

Victoria has the classic Alexandria package of flight, invincibility, and superhuman strength. She also radiates an aura that makes her allies more inclined to respect and look up to her, while making her terrifying and intimidating to her enemies. Her passenger is a bud from Manpower and Brandish, and also pinged off of Gallant.

Victoria's invincibility and strength is the result of an invisible forcefield that extends a few millimeters over her skin and clothes. She or her passenger subconsciously controls whether others can make skin-to-skin contact with her, though she had gained enough control to suppress her forcefield at will. It needs to recharge for 1 to 2 seconds after it receives a heavy impact, or after a few seconds of sustained fire (such as a beam or jet of water.) Even a strong punch can be enough to trigger this effect, and it takes longer to recharge after holding off a sustained hit. Her own super-strong punches and kicks cause it to flicker off and revive. This makes for a fragile invulnerability.

Her strength is primarily generated through the forcefield, and operates through a similar mechanism to Manpower's. She's capable of deadlifting slightly above fourteen tons, but functional limits depend on the grip and the distribution of mass. She was strong enough to casually launch a man or a metal dumpster over seventy-five feet, or throw a small object like a mirror or a handful of loose change with bullet-like speed and force.

Victoria can radiate an energy that makes anyone within her presence feel an emotional surge of awe and admiration. For those with a reason to be afraid of her (e.g., her foes), it is a feeling of raw intimidation instead. When turned on, Victoria can dial the power of her aura up and down: its minimum setting is fairly subtle in effect. She can also push out or pull in her aura to control its range (100 feet). the effect is from her depending how close she is.
