Backstory[]
Cheetah's backstory is detailed in the season four episode, Truth of the Lasso Part 4.
As a child, Barbara Ann Minerva appears accompanying her mother Professor Minerva, an archeologist hired by Queen Hippolyta to uncover ancient relics on Themiscyra. She insists on being called Bobbie, and shows interest in one relic, the Claw of Deceit, which according to legend, gives whoever is marred by it the power to turn into a powerful beast while also turning them dishonest. After Professor Minerva finds the relics, Bobbie disobeys her and touches them, summoning Cerberus, the giant three-headed dog. She is saved by Princess Diana, a young Wonder Woman and lies to her mother about touching the relics. Later, she scratches herself with the Claw of Deceit, transforming into the Cheetah, and receiving the effects of the legend.
