The New Mutants

X-Men: Covert / Instinct / Ranged

Danielle Moonstar is a Native American of the Cheyenne Nation. Moonstar’s mutant powers emerged at puberty, but she could not control her ability to create visible images of people’s greatest fears. Manifesting the images at unexpected moments alienated her from everyone in her community, except for her parents William and Peg Lonestar, and her grandfather, the chief and shaman Black Eagle.

One night, Dani created a symbolic vision of her parents’ deaths. Shortly thereafter, Dani’s parents disappeared during a trip to the mountains. Moonstar believed them to have been killed and her dreams were haunted, thereafter, by a vision of a demonic bear, whom she believed to be responsible for their deaths. In fact, Moonstar’s parents had been transformed into the demonic bear by an as yet unrevealed cause. This bear intended to work the same transformation upon Moonstar, but the spells of Black Eagle kept the demonic bear away from her.
