Pocahontas was the adopted daughter of Chief Powhatan, leader of the Native American tribe known as the Chickahominy, who found her in the winter of 1865 near Lonetree, Wyoming amidst the ashes of a burned log cabin.

When she was almost 20 years old, her adopted father gave her a packet containing a letter from her birth father, George Tucker, instructing her to claim her inheritance when she comes of age by coming home to Lonetree, Wyoming to see Walter Trask.

Two days later with her brothers White Eagle and Pontiac, Pocahontas arrived to sign for her property however the evil Trask wanted the gold on her family's property. He sends his henchmen to stir up the crowd against her and the natives. After one of the men whips one of Pocahontas's brothers, she shoots the whip out of his hand earning the admiration of the crowd.

Afterwards Pocahontas and her allies take shelter in a deserted ranch house, but masked men arrive with Trask leading to a shootout. They manage to drive the attackers away and decide to see the sheriff the following day who explains to Pocahontas about the gold and how Trask probably is responsible for the death of her family. The sheriff and Pocahontas then witness Trask and his men trying to frame Pontiac and White Eagle for horse theft. In the commotion Trask attempted to shoot Pocahontas only for White Eagle to shield her by jumping in front of the bullet.

After failing to kill Pocahontas again, Trask decided to take the town by force. Pontiac goes to get reinforcements from Chief Powhatan and the rest of the tribe. Pocahontas confronts Trask and manages to take the criminal down just as the reinforcements arrive to save the town. They knew where to find the town thanks to Pocahontas using a mirror to flash signals into the sky.

After avenging her parents, Pocahontas decided to fight outlaws for the rest of her life as the Golden Avenger.
