When she was only six years old, Puerto Rican Cecilia Reyes saw her father gunned down in a drive-by shooting. From that moment on, she dedicated her life to becoming a medical doctor.

He invited Reyes to join the X-Men but she declined, wanting to instead to continue working as a trauma surgeon at the Our Mother Mercy Hospital in New York City's South Bronx.

Powers

Cecilia is able to create a psioplasmatic field to defend herself. The process is involuntary, the field appears whenever Cecilia feels threatened. She also has the potential to use it offensively, but due to her lack of training this is limited, and she has only used it either unconsciously or in a surge of rage. Since the field is psionic in nature, Cecilia feels everything the field touches, feeling as much pain as if she received the attack on herself.
