Strata is a native of the planet Dryad, and a founding member of
L.E.G.I.O.N. , a law-enforcement agency operating on a number of worlds. It is led by Vril Dox. When initially encountered, Strata had no obvious gender, but later transformed into a crystalline form, which indicated she was female.Strata meets up with a similarly thick-skinned male named Garv. They begin a romance. Unfortunately, on their wedding day, the son of L.E.G.I.O.N.'s founder stages a coup, brainwashing most of the organization. Strata and several of her friends are forced to go on the run. Garv follows, only wishing to get his wife back.
Eventually the mutiny is neutralized and the rebels get back to work with the L.E.G.I.O.N. Both Garv and Strata are seen working to help control a cosmic disaster in issue #1 of
Infinite Crisis .Alternate Versions
An alternate future, caused by the capture of Waverider shows Garv and Strata with a young child. This timeline is neutralized when Dox, seeing how it ends badly for all his friends, frees Waverider.
