"I'm a world class party girl. I intend to go out with a bang. Several, if it can be arranged."

Audrey was once the Princess of Kaznia, until she eventually became its ruler. She had also been a partygoer of international notoriety.

History

Days before her engagement announcement in Kaznia, then-Princess Audrey spent time in Paris. At a party, a Kaznian resistance group captured the Princess; however, their attack was untimely: Wonder Woman was attending the same party. After saving Audrey's life, the two princesses formed a quick friendship, and Audrey shared her "last night as a free woman" with the Amazonian heroine.

Questions regarding Kaznia's technological espionage arose through the investigations of Batman, though Audrey dismissed them as slander. She believed her father, the King, would never commit illegal acts. Kaznia's interests, she professed, were in peaceful space exploration.

At the engagement party, Audrey revealed her arranged fiancé, Vandal Savage. Shortly after the announcement, the king was poisoned, appearing to have suffered a paralytic stroke. Left with few options, Audrey assumed the throne and chose to reassure the public with the continuity of the royal bloodline. Vandal and Audrey married immediately. Shortly after the ceremony, Audrey discovered Vandal's true intentions: by marrying into the royal family, he asserted himself as an international leader. Using the International Space Station, which was modified into a massive rail gun, he asserted Kaznia as the dominant military power in the world.

Vandal imprisoned Audrey in her room. While the remainder of the Justice League liberated the space station, Batman and Wonder Woman freed Audrey. Together, they stopped Vandal's militaristic regime, at the cost of Kaznia's royal palace. Asserting herself as the true ruler, Audrey arrested Vandal, and vowed to rebuild Kaznia anew.

Audrey was eventually crowned queen, and asked for the League's intervention in a brewing civil war in her country.

Personality

Before the attempt on her father's life, Audrey was a spoiled but sweet girl who never missed an opportunity to have a good time. Despite being engaged to Vandal Savage in an arranged marriage, she did what she could to love him and make the best of things.

Beneath her fun-loving exterior, Audrey cared deeply for her subjects and the stability of her home country. With her father out of commission and Vandal Savage arrested, she put aside her old lifestyle and took on the massive responsibility of leading her nation to peace.
