Lifeguard

Origin

 

On one of the team's missions to space, Heather's appearance changed to resemble the Shi'ar species, including special cranial markings and feathers that are specific to Shi'ar royalty. This led her to believe that she was born from Shi'ar heritage, namely from her mother. Davis couldn't handle the fact that his sister and possibly himself were half-alien, and he ran away from her and the X-Treme X-Men. Heather and Neal went off in search of him.

Heather eventually returned as a part of the X-Corporation, working out of the Singapore branch with Neal. In the aftermath of M-Day, though, the X-Corporation was disbanded. Heather currently lives at the X-Mansion.

Powers & Abilities

 

Her Shi'ar heritage grants her a unique appearance and presumably their physical abilities.  Lifeguard appears to have two distinct mutant abilities, in addition to her hybrid Shi'ar/Human heritage.

• Danger Sense: Akin to Spider-Man, Heather has the ability to psionically and subconsciously detect danger in her immediate area.
  
• Reactive Metamorphosis: Once a danger is detected, her physical form and abilities change in order to remove or negate the danger.  She can't actively control the evolutionary/metamorphic part of her powers, the "evolving" happens automatically without her being able to affect it (she can't exchange wings for teleportation if her body decides wings is the best option).  Though she cannot actively control the change, she immediately/instinctively knows how her new abilities function and how to utilize them.  She generally transforms in order to save someones life; for example, she grew wings to save someone falling to death and gills/fins to save someone from drowning .
