Afro-asian Superheroes
or
Afro-east asian Superheroes
These two superheroes are afro-asian or afro-east asian.
These two are abit confusing,
because some art of them seems
to make them more black i think,
and some other art
seems to
it makes them more phenotype
wise like tiger woods,not
really black or asian but
a mix of the two.
The i tend to see more art of them looking more clearly mixed or afro- east asian however.
Silhouette
Silhouette (Silhouette Chord)
is a fictional character, a
superhero in the Marvel Comics
universe. She first appeared
in New Warriors (vol. 1) #2,
(August 1990), and was created
by Fabian Nicieza and Mark
Bagley. Silhouette and her
brother Aaron Chord (Midnight's Fire)
are mutants.
Origin
In 1966 during the Vietnam War,
an American recon patrol in
Cambodia stumbled upon an ancient
hidden temple of a cult known
as the Dragon's Breath, which
had remained hidden for centuries.
It had been built upon a
well-spring of raw, primal
energy called the "Well of All
Things." The inhabitants
decided to breed a superior
race that would one day unite
with the ways of the west.
They believed that this union
would produce children capable
of harnessing the power of the
Well. The members of the recon
patrol were to be the fathers
of these children; one of these
men was Andrew Chord, the man
who would become Silhouette's father.
Silhouette and her brother
Aaron (Midnight's Fire) are
the only children of Andrew
Chord, the former guardian of
Dwayne Taylor (Night Thrasher)
and his wife Miyami (Tai's only
daughter), and were born in
New York City. Silhouette and
Midnight's Fire were operating
as independent vigilantes in
the streets of New York, when
they met Dwayne (before he had
become Night Thrasher), and
the three began an organized
effort to take down various
New York City criminal street
gangs. She began a romance
with Night Thrasher during this time.
Powers and abilities
Thanks to her genetic heritage
developed through many
generations of selective breeding,
Silhouette has the ability to
teleport herself over short
distances on Earth by traveling
through the Darkforce dimension.
She can "melt" into any shadow
or area of darkness, thus
entereing the Darkforce dimension,
and then reemerge on Earth
through another shadow or area
of darkness.
Like Nightcrawler, Silhouette
originally had the power to
shadow-meld, thereby becoming
nearly invisible while under
the cover of darkness, as well
as the ability to teleport
via dimension hop, using any
available shadow as a portal.
She could also open small
portals anywhere shadows existed
and use them to attack distant
enemies by extending her crutches
through them.
After a disturbance in the Darkforce
that affected everyone who used
it, she found that her powers had
increased to the point where she
could now teleport others. She
has demonstrated this ability by
teleporting small groups of people
along with herself, although it
is painful and leaves her exhausted.
She can also now become 'living
darkness', and can cause extreme
pain by phasing through the
bodies of her enemies.
Like her brother Midnight's Fire,
Silhouette also has enhanced
speed, strength, agility, and
sensory perception. She is a superb hand-to-hand combatant and capable martial artist, and master of an unspecified martial art.
Later in New Warriors (Vol 4)
she now has the ability to
manipulate the dark force
energies to create tendrils
much in the same manner as
Asylum, another dark force user.
Equipment
After her legs were crippled
due to injuries inflicted by
gunfire, Night Thrasher designed
and built a special pair of
combat-capable crutches and
leg braces for her. Thrash
designed the crutches to
include both a hidden electric
tazer that can emit electrical
charges to stun an adversary,
and a slim anesthetic needle
injector that delivered paralytic
chemicals. The crutches are
also equipped with "smoke gas"
and metal firing pellets.
A later design had retractable
braces in specially designed
open metal gauntlets.
She wears a costume made from
unstable molecules, because
initially she could only teleport
herself and any inanimate matter
composed of unstable molecules;
therefore, her clothes fell
off whenever she shadow-melded.
Midnight's Fire
Midnight's Fire is a fictional
supervillain in the Marvel
Comics universe. He first
appeared in New Warriors
(vol. 1) #2, (August 1990),
and was created by Fabian
Nicieza and Mark Bagley.
Midnight's Fire is a Mutate,
his powers and his sister
Silhouette's powers are derived
from their ability to tap into
the extradimensional energy
of the Universal Wellspring,
due to being descendants of
the Dragon's Breadth Cult which
had based their cult around the
base of one of the wells for centuries.
Powers and abilities
Midnight's Fire has very subtle
abilities, due to the energies
of the Well of All Things his
physical attributes are at the
peak of human possibility, he
has enhanced speed, strength,
agility, and sensory perception
on par with Captain America.
He is also an unparalleled martial
artist. The combination of these
traits made him a deadly threat in
combat to normal humans like Night
Thrasher. The threat of a physical
confrontation with Midnight's Fire
was one of the main reasons that
Dwayne Taylor created his body armor.
) & with how much of a push Cyborg has been getting recently he's sure to show up.
