No recent wiki edits to this page.

Abandoned in Chinatown with her twin brother, Midnight's Fire, Silhouette Chord joined the Concrete Dragons gang where she learned to defend herself and used her shadow teleportation power to combat the rival gang, Poison Memories.  

At 14,  Silhouette watched as her comrades were picked off by Poison Memories because of her refusal to submit herself as their leader's slave. 

Having been associated with Night Thrasher since she could remember, Sil allied with him and her brother, Midnight's Fire to end gang violence, but their efforts put her in the line of fire. A bullet ruptured her spine, paralyzing her from the waist down. 
 
Undaunted, Sil utilized her braces in combat and joined Night Thrasher's New Warriors.  Amidst their adventures, the team encountered the Folding Circle, revealing an intricate cult following a bloodline of power called Dragon's Breadth which Silhouette and her brother had inherited.   
Miyami, Sil's mother, was a descendant of the Dragon's Breadth and Sil's father, Andrew Chord, had been coerced into conceiving children to spawn mystical offspring with access to an interdimensial gateway. Miyami wanted to free her twins from the cult and faked her and their deaths, placing them in an orphanage to protect their identities.
