Shego is a Kim Possible character.
Canon
Shego is the super-powered rival of teen hero Kim Possible, and employed by her arch-enemy Dr. Drakken. After being hit by a meteorite as a child, her and her brothers all developed unique super powers, with Shego able to produce and shoot plasma from her hands. This plasma can be hot enough to melt metal, or cool enough to be used as a non-lethal projectile.
She has pale green skin (most likely as a result of said meteorite) and an affinity with the colours green and black.
In her youth, she was a superhero, alongside her siblings, before turning to a life of crime.
In the series finale, it is heavily implied that she enters into a relationship with Drakken.
Fandom
Prior to the Season 2 episode "Go Team Go" the source of Shego's powers had not been addressed. Entry's on the official Disney Channel website, and in the Manual for the Gameboy Game Revenge of Monkey Fist suggested that the power came from her gloves, rather than Shego herself. It is not unusual to see fan works from this time taking this as canon, such as the Unacceptable Sitch franchise, which made Shego's gloves a major plot point.
As her powers would be highly fatal if used at full strength on another human being, and no-one is ever shown to be seriously harmed by her, it is speculated that she subscribes to some form of moral code.
Some fanworks have also speculated that Shego's plasma may interfere with her ability to safely carry a child to term (due to potential radioactivity).
Shipping
Shego is most commonly shipped with her rival, Kim Possible (KiGo), with her canon relationship with Draken (Drakgo) also enjoying some popularity. The only other pairing with any significant following is with Ron Stoppable (Rongo).
