The protagonist of my story is an all-powerful do gooder superhuman. She is like Wonder Woman and Amélie merged and She could literally get things done by thinking about them. She was raised by a single mother who lost her husband trying to save their newborn child.
She is later introduced to her immense powers in her adolescence but has to go through a lot to master them for years. This, coupled with her humble upbringing, makes her wise and kind.
As you can see that this character looks like it could do no wrong and so I have run into the problem of not being able to create real conflicts for her. I suppose there would be a few characters in fiction and in history with similar backdrops. Can anyone refer me materials which have similar character/s which I can study to refine my protagonist.
Edit : Her powers do not include ability to turn back time or read minds or omnipresence. But she has strength to move mountains, can teleport, manipulate environment and create things by thinking about them
