Cybergirl is a superheroine from the 2001 TV series of the same name; her secret identity is Ashley Campbell but in reality she is a "Cyber Replicant" from a distant planet.

Her powers include super-human strength, super-human speed, and the ability to interface directly with electronic devices and computers, she is also able to physically change her appearance between that of the blue haired ethereal looking Cybergirl and the not so stand out mousy-haired Ashley, and can alter her clothing at will.

History

She was originally know as the Cyber Replicant Human Prototype 6000, the only one of her model to be built. Not only are her powers far and above that of earlier models she has has a much wider emotional scope than her predecessors. She ran away from her planet of origin in order to explore the beings she was modeled after, humans.

Two other Cyber Replicants also appear in the series - model 3000s called Xanda and Isaac are sent after her and their sole mission is to dystroy her. She lands on Earth in the fictional city of River City, Australia which is modeled on and filmed in Brisbane. She meets Jackson and Hugh Campbell who take her in and she aquires the name Cybergirl as her superheroine identity, Jackson calls her "Cy" she later uses her powers to make herself look more human and this identity is called Ashley, she poses as Jackson's cousin and Hugh's niece. The only other person besides Hugh and, Jackson to know her identity is Kat, her friend and neighbour.

She is pursued not only by Xanda and Isaac but also by a powerful software mogul called Rhyss. She is well loved by the populace of River City however and she has the approval of Mayor Buxton, who's twin daugthers are big fans of the superheroine, ironically they snub her as Ashley at school.
