Komand'r is the first born of the Grand Rulers of Tamaran and older sister of Koriand'r (Starfire). Although Komand'r excelled in the military arts and leadership, she lacked her sister's emotions and empathy for others. Also, unlike most Tamaranians, she was born with black hair, not red. Bored with life on Tamaran, she began exploring the Vega Star System and beyond, and broke laws at every turn. It was revealed she has been to Altara Prime (famed for gemstones), the forbidden Draconis Nebula, Tyrus-3 (where she trained with a Venzo master), and the Centauri Empire. However, she insulted the Centauri so much, their police force pursued her through space. From time to time, she would exchange transmissions with her sister.

The Centauri Police tracked her to the Milky Way Galaxy and released four probes to locate and extract her. Komand'r, meanwhile, landed in Jump City on Earth. Under the false pretense of visiting her sister, Komand'r, now Blackfire according to Starfire's translation, hid among the Teen Titans. Starfire was mistaken for Blackfire by the Police but the rest of the Titans rectified the situation. Blackfire was taken into custody by the Centauri.

Years later, Blackfire broke out of prison and returned to Tamaran. She assumed her rightful place as the new Grand Ruler. In order to solidify her rule, Blackfire made a secret alliance with Glyrdsklechhh of Drenthax-4. In exchange for her sister as a wife, Blackfire would receive the Jewel of Charta, a gem that would greatly enhance her powers. When a fake army of Drenthax soldiers arrived, Blackfire arranged the marriage as a peace treaty. Starfire returned with her team mates as guests. The Titans discovered the truth at the last minute and Starfire challenged Blackfire for the crown. In the battle, Blackfire was invincible with the Jewel but Starfire managed to shatter it and defeat her sister with eye lasers. As Empress, Starfire called off the marriage and banished Blackfire from Tamaran. Blackfire and Glgrdsklechhh were married and had four children. After the current babysitter got eaten, Blackfire invited Starfire to sit for her. Blackfire anticipated the children would eat Starfire and plotted to replace her. However, the children turned on her.
