Lois Lane has always known exactly what she wants. An army brat raised by a single father, it was right after graduating from Raleigh College that Lois was hired by the Daily Planet. There was no intermittent period for the precocious young woman, she’d studied to be a journalist & so it was that she became just that. Perry White, however, would be the man to send her off on a path of indecision. It was in a region of the Canadian Arctic that Lois had her first encounter with the man the world would soon come to know as Superman. 

Initially saved by the man, Lois would go on to deduce the stranger’s identity & eventually fall in love with him. Her fascination though, would act as a defining moment in her career as the newspaper head first refused to run any of her wild-eyed stories about the supposedly great feats this stranger could perform. It was through her unrelenting compassion & dedication to an ideal of truth that the world would be given its savior. For better or for worse.

Backing Superman while simultaneously working alongside Clark Kent has proven again & again to be a source of contention between her career & her relationship with Clark, though more often than not, Lois can persuade Perry to let her chase a story well beyond reason. This is, in part, due to her clear & proven sense of perception. Despite all of her strengths, no one was prepared to deal with the creature Lex Luthor created. Again & again, Lois has been asked to throw caution to the wind & believe in the unbelievable. Never more so than when the smoked cleared after the battle in Metropolis. Superman was dead & Lois had to bury the love of her life. Perry offered her an extended leave, but as soon as Lois left Smallville she was anxious to bury her head in another story. Anything that didn’t have something to do with capes or glory. Though she has seemingly lost all hope, Lois is determined now more than ever to dig out stories from underneath the corrupt. Her scoops can be vastly compromising, but she actively seeks these moments out with tenacity of a person who no longer sees their own safety as a priority.

                                                               Personality

Lois typically does not assume the role of damsel in distress. Though she may not have been as physically capable as her boyfriend, Lois possess more bravery than most men. She is also resolute & determined. While she seeks major breakthroughs in current affairs, she is willing to sacrifice her own success for the sake of the greater good, in this case not revealing Superman’s identity. Fair & loyal to her core, Lois is not only a fantastic reporter but an even better friend.
