Explanation of the conversion: Since Nightwind has only appeared twice in comics, I took some libertities in her creation. If she appears again I will try to improve her conversion.
History: Nightwind trained as a ninja, and learned to use her mutant power over darkforce to shape a sword which she could use to kill or stun her opponents. She became a member of the Rising Sons with Dragonwing, Spoilsport, Jet Black, the Sign and Tough Love. The Rising Suns were hired to protect a man named Noy, who had in his possession a sword that was used to kill Adrienne Frost's husband. Adrienne wanted the sword for herself and send the mercenary Paladin to get it, but the Rising Sons fought him off and left him for dead. Paladin returned alongside Generation X members Jubilee, Skin, Chamber, Synch and Husk. This lead to a confrontation with Generation X where Nightwind fought Chamber (Generation X #35).
She then faced Synch, who had copied her powers. Although Nightwind was a superior fighter to Synch, Skin was able to ambush her and knock her out (Generation X #54).
Powers: Nightwind is a mutant with the ability to generate a sword made of darkforce. This sword can be used to damage targets physically or mentally as she chooses.
