Granny Goodness
Granny Goodness is the headmistress of Darkseid's orphanage, where she molds
the orphans of Armagetto into mindless soldiers of Apokalips' armies. She
considers the orphans her children, putting them through what she calls "tough
love," which is nothing more than physical and mental torture.
Among Granny's greatest successes are the Female Furies, who represent her
best students. Although they've failed Grannty in the past, she, as well as
Darkseid, considers them to be valuable tools due to their total obedience to
her.
Her two greatest failures come in the form of Scott Free/Mr. Miracle, one of
her prize pupils-to-be, and Big Barda, the ex-leader of the Furies. Scott
rebelled against her and the system until he managed to escape Apokolips, while
Barda, who fell in love with Scott, left her service to Granny and went with
him. Granny has considered these two to be personal problems, and has tried to
punish them for years, but has never been able to get it done.
She was once, *once* corrupted by Scott Free, who almost made Granny see the
error in her ways. But Darkseid intervened to stop this. Since then, Granny has
been kept very busy with her orphanage, under Darkseid's very careful watch, in
the extreme case that Scott Free's plan may have worked. Over time, she has
continued to ber her normal old self.
Weapon of choice: Granny often uses a Mega-rod to keep her unruly children
under control.
