Explanation of the conversion:
History: Dani born in Bounder, Colorado and was raised by her grandparents. Her grandfather was wise and taught her much. Shortly after Dani's powers manifested and her grandfather died, Dani moved to New York to join Xavier's Institute For Higher Learning and to become a member of Professor Charles Xavier's mutant team, the New Mutants. Dani was an original member of the New Mutants along with Cannonball II, Sunspot, Wolfsbane, and Karma (Marvel Graphic Novel #4).
Dani was recruited by Professor X as a member of the New
Mutants. Initially she had the ability to mind link with animals and
animal-like mutants and form illusions based on her opponents fears or
desires. During an encounter with the High Evolutionary her powers were
boosted to the level where the illusions she created were solid. She used
these powers during the Inferno to create duplicates of the Power Pack kids,
when their parents had learned of their super powers. They then convinced
the parents that the duplicates without powers were their children and
the kids with powers were mutant duplicates that were planted to protect
the kids from the Bogey Man. Thanks to a little telepathic convincing
from Aerial II they believed it. After they went to bed she switched
the kids and duplicates back (Power Pack #44).
After Xavier's school was blown up, she and the other New Mutants encountered the
X-Terminators II and their ship who were under attack by a sea monster.
Along with the Namor the Submariner she helped stop the monster by wishing
up enough dynamite to blow by the beast. She and the other New Mutants were
invited by X-Factor to live on their ship (New Mutants #76).
She left the New Mutants to become a Valkyrie, and later an under cover agent for S.H.I.E.L.D. infiltrating
the second Mutant Liberation Front. Some time while she was either with the
Valkyrie or M.L.F. her powers mutated to allow her to make psychic arrows that
stunned her opponents with fear. From there she joined X-Force with a
number of her old New Mutants friends. Dani participated in the assault on
the home of the Gamesmaster in the Alps where the Gamesmaster mind
controlled her into attacking Kymaera and Nova with her psychic arrows (New Warriors #46).
Recently her powers have
begun to alter again allowing her to summon quantum flame and to
heal with a touch.
Powers: Dani can make an opponent experience their deepest fears
by striking them with her psychic arrows, stunning them. She
can establish a mental rapport with most animals. She has lately started
to exhibit new powers that she does not understand like the ability to
heal with a touch and to project quantum fire blasts.
