History- Born of Cheyenne Indian descent, Danni's powers appeared at quite a young age, she began to see visions of her parents death at the hands of a demon bear and her parents disappeared. She thought them dead, victims of her nightmare demon, but they were in fact transformed into the bear. The same fate was in store for Danni, but she was protected from its power by her Grandfather the Shaman Black Eagle who then raised the girl in the mountains. When Danni was old enough to leave Black Eagle ordered her to Professor Xavier's school where she could learn to control her powers, before Xavier arrived to collect her Black eagle was killed by the mutant Donald Pierce who hunted Danni down. She was saved from Pierce by the arrival of the professor and his mutant pupil Magma and Danni went with them and came to lead Xavier's youngest group the New Mutants alongside team mate Sam Guthrie. Without the protection of Black Eagle, Danni was vulnerable to attack from the demon bear, Danni was injured in battle with the bear but it was defeated by Magik's Soulsword and Danni's parents returned to their mortal forms. Whilst on a mission in Asgard, Danni bonded with a Valkyrie winged horse named Brightwing and the ability to see and fight off death. After returning to Earth for while Danni elected to go back to Asgard to come to terms with her new power. She returned with a new black horse, Darkwing and and worked undercover for Nick Fury and the espionage agency SHIELD infiltrating the Mutant Liberation Front. She then rejoined some of her original team- mates in X- Force and has since returned to college and become a part time X- Man.
