Fictional character biography
Pre-Zero Hour
In the original continuity prior to Zero Hour: Crisis in Time!, veteran Legionnaire Colossal Boy (Gim Allon) was finally able to act upon his unrequited feelings for his teammate Shrinking Violet when the two became a romantic couple and married, to the surprise of the other Legionnaires.[1]
Allon later discovers that Violet is Yera Allon, a Durlan who impersonated her after she was kidnapped by other Imskians.[2] She is eventually exposed as an imposter, but chooses to remain with Allon.[3][4]
Post-Infinite Crisis
The events of Infinite Crisis restored a close analogue of the pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths Legion to continuity, with Yera joining the Legion as Chameleon Girl.[5] However, because the events following the "Five Year Gap" have not been reincorporated into current continuity, Chameleon Girl and Shrinking Violet remain at odds with one another.
Legion Lost, volume 2
In Legion Lost, Yera is stranded on 21st century Earth (along with teammates Wildfire, Dawnstar, Timber Wolf, Tyroc, Tellus, and Gates) on a mission to save the future.[6] Additionally, they discover that they must remain in that time period, after learning that they may have contracted a pathogen that could destroy the 31st century if they return.
The New Golden Age
In "The New Golden Age", Chameleon Girl is among the Legion of Super-Heroes members who arrive in the present and confront the Justice Society of America over their decision to recruit Legionnaire, a younger version of Mordru who wants to avoid becoming evil.[7]
Powers and abilities
As a Durlan, Yera Allon can shapeshift.
