Is your character originally from Earth-1? Hmm... this character is native to Earth-1, though there are versions on other parallel Earths as well. Does this character wear a costume? Sometimes.

My character:
is male. is living. is native to Earth-1, though not exclusively. debuted prior to Crisis on Infinite Earths and Zero Hour. is sometimes a super-hero. sometimes wears a costume. has never been the villain of another hero. generally appears in stories set in the 20th/21st century, though has been known to travel through time. has met the Legion, and probably the post-boot version, though I am not certain. has no inherent super-powers. has had encounters with magic, though it is not something he deals with on an everyday basis. depending on other factors, might not be out of luck if standing next to a bomb that is about to go off. can pass as a human, most of the time. does not wear a mask. has done some amateur detective work, but is not a police officer nor a private investigator. has been a member of a team, but not the JLA, JSA, or Titans. is not the Creeper nor one of the Linear Men.

It is Jimmy Olsen!
I realize in retrospect that I should have said "sometimes" for the wearing a mask, because I forgot about his wearing one in his Flamebird identity.

That was a tricky one EDE! I only guessed Jimmy because of the clues about having met the Legion!
I think it was him who encountered Gates in LSH 85. Jimmy was a TV reporter then.
I will think of a new character soon but feel free to start asking

Yeah, when I picked him I actually thought he'd be pretty easy, but once you guys started asking questions, I realized how tricky it could be, just because he's had so many different stories over the years (with all the different transformations and identities).
I was expecting a "does the character ever dress in female clothing?" question!

Perhaps we assumed the answer to that would be yes

IB, If your character was falling from 35,000 feet, would he/she/it survive the fall without the aid of any devices?

Is that because your character is a woman?

No.
Recap:
- would likely not survive falling from 35,000 feet without the aid of any devices - is a woman who has dressed in women's clothing - has a connection to magic or the supernatural, but not for the character's entire history - from Earth-1 - has not had her own book
