'''Danielle''' "'''Dani'''" '''Moonstar''' (also known as '''Psyche''', '''Mirage''', and '''Moonstar''') is a character appearing in [[American comic book]]s published by [[Marvel Comics]]. She first appeared in the graphic novel ''[[The New Mutants (graphic novel)|The New Mutants]]'' (Sept. 1982), created by writer [[Chris Claremont]] and artist [[Bob McLeod (comics)|Bob McLeod]]. The character is usually depicted as associated with the [[New Mutants]], but has also served as a member of the [[Valkyrie]]s of [[Asgard (comics)|Asgard]].

A [[Mutant (Marvel Comics)|mutant]], Mirage originally possessed the psionic/[[psychic]] ability to telepathically create [[illusion]]s of her opponents' fears or wishes. She later developed a wide range of [[telepathy|psionic]] and [[energy]] manipulation powers, and gained magical abilities after a series of adventures in Asgard. She was a member of the New Mutants and, after a long absence, its reincarnation as [[X-Force]]. She was also a member of the [[Fearless Defenders]] and the [[X-Men]]. She was depowered after the "[[Decimation (comics)|Decimation]]" storyline, but later regained her mutant powers after being infected with and then cured of [[Warlock (New Mutants)|Warlock]]'s [[Techno-organic virus|transmode virus]].

[[Blu Hunt]] portrayed Danielle Moonstar in the 2020 film ''[[The New Mutants (film)|The New Mutants]]''.

She appeared as a regular team member in the 2013 series ''[[The Fearless Defenders]]''.<ref name="Fearless"/> After several years as an infrequent supporting character, Mirage was again featured prominently in ''Uncanny X-Men'' (vol. 5) (2019) and ''New Mutants'' (vol. 4) (2020–2023).

==Fictional character biography==
===Origin===
Danielle "Dani" Moonstar is a [[Native Americans in the United States|Native American]] (specifically, [[Cheyenne]]<ref name="Back Issue! #29"/>), and was born in [[Boulder, Colorado]] to William and Peg Lonestar. As with most [[Mutant (Marvel Comics)|mutants]], Dani's powers emerge during puberty, uncontrollably creating telepathic images of people's greatest fears. Her burgeoning powers alienate her from her community and give her a vision of her parents' deaths at the claws of [[Demon Bear|a demonic bear]]. Shortly afterwards, her parents disappear while on a hunting trip and Dani is taken in by her grandfather, Black Eagle. Black Eagle contacts [[Professor Charles Xavier]], an old friend of Dani's father who fought with him in the [[Vietnam War]], to teach her to control her powers. Dani is opposed to leaving home, though she reluctantly agrees after she inadvertently gives her grandfather a vision of his own death in her initial anger at the idea. Before Xavier arrives, however, Black Eagle is killed by agents of the [[Hellfire Club (comics)|Hellfire Club]], led by [[Donald Pierce]]. Vowing revenge, Dani joins the [[New Mutants]], taking the codename '''Psyche'''. After the team defeats Pierce, Psyche enrolls at [[Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters]] and remains with the New Mutants.<ref name="MarvelGraphicNovel#4"/>

===The New Mutants===
[[File:Danielle Moonstar - Marvel Graphic Novel No 4.png|thumb|left|100px|Psyche in her first appearance in ''[[The New Mutants (graphic novel)|The New Mutants]]'' (Nov. 1982). Art by [[Bob McLeod (comics)|Bob McLeod]].]]
Psyche is featured as a member of the eponymous team throughout ''[[The New Mutants (comic book)|The New Mutants]]''. She becomes the co-leader of the team alongside [[Cannonball (Marvel Comics)|Cannonball]] after [[Karma (character)|Karma]]'s disappearance<ref name="NM#6"/> and develops a deep friendship with [[Wolfsbane (character)|Wolfsbane]], her empathic abilities making her the only member of the team capable of communicating with Wolfsbane while in her wolf form.<ref name="NM#1"/> 

Psyche is plagued by nightmares of the bear she envisioned killing her parents. It soon becomes clear that this creature, known as the Demon Bear, is no mere vision, but a malevolent magical entity that is purposefully seeking her out, no longer held at bay by protective spells her grandfather had placed on her before his death. The New Mutants battle the Demon Bear and when [[Magik]] cleaves the creature in two with her Soulsword, its corpse transforms into Dani's missing parents, who had in fact been abducted and enslaved by an evil spirit (later revealed to be the [[Adversary (comics)|Adversary]]<ref name="NM#24 Letters Page"/>). Though reunited with her family, Psyche opts to remain with the New Mutants<ref name="NM#18-20"/> and changes her codename to '''Mirage'''.<ref name="NM#22"/>

When the team becomes stranded in [[Asgard (comics)|Asgard]], Mirage rescues a winged horse from hunters and bonds with him, naming him Brightwind. She inadvertently becomes a Valkyrie when Brightwind chooses her as his rider. This new role allows her to see the imminent deaths of others. When the New Mutants return to Earth, Brightwind accompanies Mirage.<ref name="NMSE #1"/><ref name="X-Men Annual #9"/> The New Mutants later develop an intense rivalry with the [[Hellions (Marvel Comics)|Hellions]], another team of young mutants formed by the [[Emma Frost|White Queen]] of the Hellfire Club. This rivalry is later somewhat cooled when Mirage bonds with the Hellions' leader, [[Warpath (comics)|Thunderbird]].<ref name="NM#54"/>

During a battle to save former teammate [[Magma (character)|Magma]] from the [[High Evolutionary]], Mirage is thrown into a machine intended to strip mutants of their powers. Instead, the machine (the effects of which had been reversed by two of the Evolutionary's victims) enhances her mutation, giving her the ability to make her telepathic images real.<ref name="NMAnnual#4"/>

When [[Hela (character)|Hela]], the Asgardian goddess of death, enacts a plan to take over Asgard and uses her magic to seize control of the Valkyries, Mirage falls under her influence.<ref name="NM#77"/> The combined forces of Asgard and the rest of the New Mutants ultimately defeat Hela<ref name="NM#85"/> and Mirage chooses to stay behind in Asgard to rebuild and fully assume the responsibilities of a Valkyrie.<ref name="NM#87"/> This angers [[Dog Soldiers|Hotamitanio]], a Cheyenne deity, who comes to Asgard to bring her back to Earth. Mirage ultimately persuades him to allow her to remain by promising that she will one day return to her tribe.<ref name="Marvel Comics Presents #121"/>

===X-Force===
Mirage falls from grace and is exiled from Asgard back to Earth, accompanied by Brightwind (renamed Darkwind). She joins [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]],<ref name="X-Force #66"/> and infiltrates the [[Mutant Liberation Front]] (M.L.F.) as a deep cover operative, using the name '''Moonstar'''. Since her last appearance, she has refined her psychic ability so that she can create "psychic arrows" which incapacitate their targets.<ref name="X-Force #27"/> Her assignment brings her into many conflicts with old allies, primarily [[X-Force]] (a continuation of the New Mutants), but also [[Excalibur (comics)|Excalibur]] and [[Moira MacTaggert]]. Moonstar secretly works against the M.L.F., including working with [[Cable (character)|Cable]] to turn [[Feral (character)|Feral]] over to law enforcement authorities for past crimes<ref name="X-Force #41"/> and sabotaging a mission in [[China]].<ref name="X-Force Annual #3"/> Despite her opposition to the organization, Moonstar develops a genuine friendship with [[Forearm (comics)|Forearm]].<ref name="X-Force #68"/> She is discovered as a double-agent by the M.L.F.'s leader, [[Reignfire]], and Darkwind is killed in the ensuing battle.<ref name="X-Force #43"/>

Later, she seeks X-Force's help to stop an invasion of Asgard by the dark elf [[Malekith the Accursed|Malekith]].<ref name="X-Force and Cable Annual '97"/> When most of the M.L.F. is apprehended during the 1997 "[[Operation: Zero Tolerance]]" event, Moonstar is able to extricate herself from the organization with [[X-Force]]'s aid and joins the team.<ref name="X-Force #70"/> After an encounter with the mysterious Arcadia DeVille,<ref name="X-Force #84"/> she gains the ability to manipulate quantum energy for a short time, but this power disappears after Arcadia's defeat.<ref name="X-Force #100"/> Moonstar quits X-Force when the team enlists [[Pete Wisdom]] to lead them.<ref name="X-Force #106"/>

===New X-Men===
[[Image:Moonstar Elixir.png|thumb|left|Dani displaying parental concern for [[Elixir (character)|Elixir]] in her role as his legal guardian.]]
After a short time as a part-time member of the [[X-Men]] while also attending college,<ref name="X-Men (vol. 2) #102"/><ref name="X-Men 2000"/><ref name="Black Sun: Colossus and Nightcrawler"/> Dani regularly appears in both ''New Mutants'' (vol. 2) and ''[[New X-Men (2004 series)|New X-Men]]'' (vol. 2), in which she becomes the American history teacher at the [[X-Mansion|Xavier Institute]] and the mentor of the [[New Mutants#New X-Men: Academy X|New Mutants Squad]], as well as the legal guardian of [[Elixir (character)|Elixir]].<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 2) #2"/><ref name="New Mutants (vol. 2) #7"/> During this time, she reunites with former teammates Karma and Wolfsbane. She helps Wolfsbane deal with the traumatic return of her lycanthropic powers, but the discovery of an inappropriate romantic liaison between Wolfsbane (a staff member at the institute) and Elixir (a student) drives a wedge between them.<ref name="New X-Men (vol. 2) #12"/>

During her appearances in ''New Mutants'' (vol. 2) and ''New X-Men'' (vol. 2), the bulk of Dani's powers appear to have reverted to their original depictions. She also retains some of her Valkyrie abilities, namely the ability to sense imminent death, though they are greatly diminished. In the wake of the 2005 "[[House of M]]" event, however, Dani is one of the many mutants who lose their powers. She is fired from her position at the institute by [[Emma Frost]], who feels that, as a human, she is no longer safe nor has any right to remain at the school.<ref name="New X-Men (vol. 2) #22"/> She briefly reappears in ''[[Generation M (comics)|Generation M]]'' #5 (May 2006), in which she reveals that she has not dreamt since losing her powers.

===The Initiative===
Following the "[[Civil War (comics)|Civil War]]" event, Dani is recruited by the Initiative program to serve as an instructor to the next generation of superheroes, alongside her former colleague [[Beast (Marvel Comics)|Beast]].<ref name="CivilWar:BDR"/> She is brought in to train [[Trauma (comics)|Trauma]] in the use of his powers, as they are similar in nature to hers.<ref name="Avengers: The Initiative #3"/> However, due to her belief that Trauma could and should use his powers in a therapeutic way, [[Henry Peter Gyrich]], who intends to use Trauma as a weapon for the Initiative, is quick to dismiss her once she provides Trauma with enough training in using his powers.<ref name="Avengers: The Initiative #5"/>

===Young X-Men===
Dani features prominently in ''[[Young X-Men]]'', in which she is targeted for capture by the eponymous team, led by Donald Pierce disguised as [[Cyclops (Marvel Comics)|Cyclops]].<ref name="Young X-Men #2"/> After Pierce is exposed and defeated, she moves to Utopia, the X-Men's island base off the coast of [[San Francisco]], and works as a trainer for the Young X-Men for the remainder of the series.<ref name="Young X-Men #6"/>

===New Mutants Reunion===
[[Image:Moonstar c-.JPG|thumb|right|180px|Moonstar temporarily regains her Valkyrie powers.]]
Dani joins the X-Men's [[New Mutants#Original team reunion|New Mutants]] squad in ''New Mutants'' (vol. 3), proving to be a capable team member despite not having powers.<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #1-4"/><ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #5"/> She eventually reclaims the codename Mirage.<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #10"/> When [[Green Goblin|Norman Osborn]]'s [[Dark Avengers]] prepare to attack Utopia, Mirage makes a deal with Hela to restore her Valkyrie powers and revive Brightwind. She defeats [[Ares (Marvel Comics)|Ares]] in a brutal battle.<ref name="Dark Avengers/Uncanny X-Men: Exodus"/> She also serves as Hela's Valkyrie during the 2009–2010 "[[Siege (comics)|Siege]]" event.<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #11"/> After Cannonball resigns from the squad, Mirage takes his place as team leader.<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #25"/> During this time, she has a brief romantic relationship with teammate [[Nate Grey]].<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #41"/>

===Fearless Defenders===
Mirage joins the cast of ''[[The Fearless Defenders]]'' to combat the machinations of Caroline Le Fay,<ref name="Fearless Defenders #3"/> after which she makes sporadic appearances as a supporting character in various X-Men titles. In the aftermath of the 2013–2014 "[[Infinity (comic book)|Infinity]]" event, she uses her Valkyrie powers to locate mutants suffering from the M-Pox, notably rescuing [[Lady Mastermind]] from succumbing to the disease.<ref name="All-New X-Men Annual (vol. 2) #1"/> Mirage later appears infrequently in ''[[X-Men Gold]]'' (2017–2018), in which she is a mentor at the Xavier Institute.<ref name="X-Men: Gold #10"/> She is present at the aborted wedding of [[Kitty Pryde]] and [[Colossus (character)|Colossus]].<ref name="X-Men: Gold #30"/>

===Dead Souls and Uncanny X-Men===
Mirage's next major appearance is in the 2018 limited series ''The New Mutants: Dead Souls''. When Karma sends her to investigate an explosion in [[Canterbury, Connecticut]], Mirage succumbs to a [[transmode virus]] infection after coming into contact with the remains of former New Mutants teammate [[Warlock (New Mutants)|Warlock]]. Merging with the techno-organic alien, she becomes the gestalt entity '''Moonlock''' and subsequently infects Magik, Wolfsbane, [[Strong Guy]], and later Karma.<ref name="New Mutants: Dead Souls #6"/> She and her infected friends are acquired by the [[Office of National Emergency]] (O*N*E)<ref name="Astonishing X-Men (vol. 4) #17"/> and forced into service as [[Sentinel (comics)|Sentinel]]-like mutant hunters and killers.<ref name="Uncanny X-Men (vol. 5) #19"/> 

Mirage and the other infected New Mutants are later freed from O*N*E and cured of the virus by the X-Men.<ref name="Uncanny X-Men (vol. 5) #12"/><ref name="Uncanny X-Men (vol. 5) #15"/> The virus restores her mutant powers and she joins the X-Men, appearing regularly in ''Uncanny X-Men'' (vol. 5) until the series' conclusion in late 2019.

During her tenure with the X-Men, Mirage appears in the 2019 "[[The War of the Realms]]" storyline as the last living Valkyrie, fighting against the invading forces of Malekith alongside her teammates.<ref name="War of the Realms: Uncanny X-Men"/> After Wolfsbane is beaten to death, Mirage's psionic rapport with her notifies her and the other X-Men of their former teammate's passing and she attends Wolfsbane's funeral.<ref name="Uncanny X-Men (vol. 5) #16"/><ref name="Uncanny X-Men (vol. 5) #17"/>

===Krakoan Age===
Following the establishment of [[Krakoa]] as a mutant nation, Mirage moves there and joins the New Mutants once more, appearing regularly throughout ''New Mutants'' (vol. 4) and ''New Mutants Lethal Legion'' (2023), as well as other X-Men titles published during the [[Krakoan Age]].<ref name="New Mutants (Vol. 4) #1"/> She uses her powers to help other mutants with their various traumas, including Karma and the resurrected Wolfsbane,<ref name="New Mutants (Vol. 4) #14"/> and serves as Karma's partner in the Crucible, a combat ritual allowing latter to be reborn and thus free her brother's spirit.<ref name="New Mutants (Vol. 4) #18"/> Mirage later helps free Amahl Farouk from the lingering influence of the [[Shadow King]]<ref name="New Mutants (Vol. 4) #23"/> and aids Magik in transferring the throne of [[Otherplace|Limbo]] to [[Madelyne Pryor]].<ref name="New Mutants (Vol. 4) #25-28"/> Mirage also appears during the 2020–2021 "[[King in Black]]" event as a supporting character in the ''Return of the Valkyries'' tie-in series.<ref name="Return of the Valkyries"/>

During the 2023 "[[Fall of X]]" event, Mirage is among the mutants mind-controlled by Professor X into evacuating Krakoa through a teleportation gate to escape the anti-mutant terrorist organization [[Orchis (comics)|Orchis]].<ref name="X-Men: Hellfire Gala 2023"/> However, in ''Realm of X'' (2023–2024), rather than joining the majority of the Krakoans in the [[White Hot Room]], the young mutant Curse's reality-warping powers cause herself, Mirage, Magik, [[Dust (character)|Dust]], and [[Typhoid Mary (character)|Typhoid Mary]] to instead emerge in the Asgardian realm of [[Vanaheim]], where they battle the sorceress [[Saturnyne]] alongside [[Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]] before returning to Earth.<ref name="Realm of X #1-4"/> After returning from Vanaheim, Mirage joins [[X-Corps]] as co-leader with [[Sunspot (Marvel Comics)|Sunspot]] in the 2024 "External Threat" storyline of ''X-Men Unlimited Infinity Comic'' and fights the [[Externals]] to rescue kidnapped mutant children and stop [[Selene (comics)|Selene]]'s attempt to ascend to higher power.<ref name="X-Men Unlimited Infinity Comic #121-142"/>

===Post-Krakoa===
Mirage is selected by [[Apocalypse (character)|Apocalypse]] to participate in the tournament that will decide his successor in the 2024 limited series ''X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse''. Though she is one of the last four contestants, she is ultimately not chosen as Apocalypse's heir.<ref name="X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse #1-4"/>

==Powers and abilities==
===Mutant powers===
Mirage is a [[Mutant (Marvel Comics)|mutant]] with [[empathy|empathic]] [[psi (parapsychology)|psi]] abilities to communicate with animals and people, as well as create three-dimensional images of visual concepts from within the minds of herself and others. Her most developed ability allowed her to manifest people's fears or desires as realistic illusions.<ref name="MarvelGraphicNovel#4"/> In the 2005 "[[Decimation (comics)|Decimation]]" storyline, Mirage loses her mutant abilities,<ref name="House of M #8"/> but regains them in ''[[Uncanny X-Men]]'' (vol. 5) (2019) after being infected with and cured of [[Warlock (New Mutants)|Warlock]]'s [[transmode virus]].<ref name="Uncanny X-Men (vol. 5) #15"/><ref name="War of the Realms: Uncanny X-Men #1"/>

Her ability began as manifesting people's worst nightmares, many times in an uncontrollable fashion, against the wills of both involved.<ref name="NM#6"/> Soon she gained the ability to control this and to alternatively manifest a person's "deepest desire", mainly as something or someone the affected person respects.<ref name="NM#23"/> She can also project images of objects of fear or desire from the minds of vertebrate animals and certain insects, but only the animal from which she derives the image will be able to see it.<ref name="NM#8"/>

She can even create illusions by channeling residual thought and emotional impressions in an area (such as showing [[Wolverine (character)|Wolverine]] a battle scene between [[Mister Sinister]] and unknown assailants simply by entering the area where the battle had recently taken place).<ref name="X-Men (vol. 2) #102"/> At first, Mirage could not control her image projecting powers and would draw and project images without consciously willing to do so. She has since gained control through training and maturity.

Mirage has a quasi-[[telepathy|telepathic]] talent that allows her to form a rapport with various fauna, including her winged horse Brightwind, primates, canines, lupines, felines, and avians. She can sense their feelings, consciously perceive images in their minds, and even see through their eyes. This enables her to communicate with [[Wolfsbane (character)|Wolfsbane]] in her transitional half-lupine form or transformed into her full wolf form.<ref name="War of the Realms: Uncanny X-Men #1"/> She has also been able to exist peacefully with wild animals.<ref name="MarvelGraphicNovel#4"/>

She had, for a time, the ability to make the telepathic images manifest as psionic energy, becoming tangible entities of solid psionic force.<ref name="NM#2-3"/> This ability was limited in that Mirage could only sustain one illusion at a time. To dispel previous manifestations, she summons a "Spirit Lance".<ref name="NMAnnual#4"/> Many times, her powers caused her to experience sharp, blinding headaches.{{Volume needed|c=y|date=August 2022}} She can temporarily regain the ability to create tangible mirages in strengthened capacity while in [[Avalon (Marvel Comics)|Otherworld]].<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 4) #16-17"/>

Mirage has displayed the ability to focus her psionic powers into energy arrows which could stun an opponent by disrupting their [[central nervous system]], or force them to relive a traumatic memory.<ref name="X-Force #27"/> In later publishing, Moonstar's psi arrows have a more physical aspect to them,<ref name="War of the Realms: Uncanny X-Men #2"/> able to draw blood from those struck by them. It is currently unknown if this is an effect of her latent materialization abilities or not.<ref name="Marvel's Voices: Indigenous Voices #1"/>

Although not a traditional telepath, her mental abilities give her sufficient control to have used [[Cerebro]] at a time when it was only usable by telepaths.<ref name="X-Men Annual #10"/> She has also exhibited a danger sense.<ref name="X-Force #75"/>

===Valkyrie abilities===
When Mirage rescued Brightwind, she became a [[Valkyrior (Marvel Comics)|Valkyrie]] and was granted the power to perceive the coming of death.<ref name="NMSE #1"/> As such, Mirage could perceive a "deathglow" surrounding a person in serious danger of dying, a dark cloud or graphic visual image over people who were in mortal peril. She could also perceive [[Death (Marvel Comics)|Death]] incarnate and even do physical battle with Death itself to stave off mortality for a short time. She has created an illusory "Cheyenne ghost-staff", drawing upon an image in her own mind, and has successfully wielded it as a weapon against Death and Hela.<ref name="NMSE #1"/>

She lost these powers when Asgard fell<ref name="Avengers: The Initiative #9"/> but has since regained them after making a deal with Hela.<ref name="Dark Avengers/Uncanny X-Men: Exodus"/><ref name="Dark Avengers #8"/>

Mirage gained a substantial degree of superhuman strength from Hela as she was able to knock Ares off his feet. Additionally, she wielded a powerful supernatural sword capable of discharging energy, slaying spiritual entities, and cutting through curses/enchantments. ''[[Dark Avengers]]'' writer [[Matt Fraction]] confirmed that since her restored Valkyrie powers came directly from Hela herself, they are much more powerful than they were previously, referring to her as a "Valkyrie Plus". ''New Mutants'' (vol. 3) writer [[Zeb Wells]] confirmed that she lost access to these powers after the Dark Avengers were defeated.<ref name="Dark Avengers/Uncanny X-Men: Exodus"/><ref name="CBR Evolution Revolution"/><ref name="CBR Zeb Wells"/> Mirage still possesses her Valkyrie powers, but they initially were only activated when Hela herself willed it. Her abilities also seemed to activate in the presence of the dead.<ref name="New Mutants (vol. 3) #11"/> Over time, she learned to call on them at will without Hela's involvement.<ref name="Fearless Defenders #12"/>

===Physical abilities===
Due to her training at Xavier's, her time as a Valkyrie in Asgard, and her natural athleticism growing up in the [[Rocky Mountains]], Mirage is physically fit and an excellent hand-to-hand combatant. In addition, she is experienced in the use of several weapons, especially the bow, spear, knife, and sword, which she carried as a Valkyrie. She is a skilled equestrian and swimmer, a good marksman with a rifle, and an excellent archer.

===Former abilities===
For a brief period of time, Mirage's powers were bolstered by Arcadia DeVille in odd yet phenomenal ways.<ref name="X-Force #86"/> She could tap into the primal mainstream of the universe to channel quantum energy through her natural mutant power, as well as make use of them in other various ways, such as: emitting force blasts potent enough to cripple powerful demons;<ref name="X-Force 85"/> healing and mending with a glancing touch;<ref name="X-Force #86"/> resisting the physiological and psychological invasion by the techno-organic mutant Paradigm;<ref name="X-Force #89"/> seeing into the broader energy spectrum beyond light and energy at a quantum level and causing a transmogrification effect on the surrounding area at a subatomic level;<ref name="X-Force #90"/><ref name="X-Force #94"/> sensing disturbances in energy fields from miles away as well as alternate them to cancel them out and sync with alternate energy forms such as electromagnetic waves;<ref name="X-Force #93"/><ref name="X-Force #95"/> and possessing an undisclosed capacity to manipulate reality on a quantum level.<ref name="X-Force #98-100"/>
