| “ | Being yourself, that is a magic stronger than any wish. | ” |
— Nora Darhk[src]
| ||
Eleanor "Nora" Palmer[8] (née Darhk) is the daughter of Damien Darhk and Ruvé Adams. After the Green Arrow thwarted the Darhks' plan and killed her father, Darhk was raised by the Order of the Shrouded Compass, who raised her to become a vessel for the demon known as Mallus.
The future version of Darhk eventually went back to the past and resurrected her father from death, but Damien Darhk eventually took his daughter's place and sacrificed himself to became the vessel for Mallus.
After Mallus' liberation, the Legends of Tomorrow used the Totems of Zambesi and destroyed him once and for all, while Darhk was arrested by the Time Bureau for her crimes. Darhk later joined the organization when they were in need of a Magic consultant against Neron. Unfortunately, the organization was destroyed by the demon and Darhk was forced to serve as a Fairy Godmother.
Later, Darhk travelled across the world as a Fairy Godmother and granted countless children's wishes. She soon returned to the Legends and confronted her father, who was resurrected as an Encore to see Darhk one last time. Damien Darhk witnessed the wedding between Darhk and Ray Palmer, before committing suicide using the Hell Sword. After their marriage, Palmer and Darhk decided to move away from the Waverider and settled for a normal life.
