Catseye
Real Name: Sharon Smith
Affiliation: Hellions
Status: Deceased (Fitzroy)
Alternate-X Versions: (AOA)
Codename Etymology: Pronounced kătz'ī [From Old English, catt probably from Late Latin cattus, catta: cat + Old English, ēge (akin to Old High German ouga: eye, Latin oculus, Greek Ops: eye, face, Sanskrit aksi: eye)] The eye of a feline.
Powers: Catseye was able to shape-shift into a lavender feline humanoid
form with enhanced strength, senses, and agility. Catseye also had the ability
to walk up walls. She was abandoned at birth, probably due to her apparent mutation,
and was raised by cats. In fact, Sharon thought herself to be a cat with the ability
to take human form. She was highly intelligent, and learned to speak and read
within a single year. Sharon was very animalistic, to the point of catching her
own food. It appears that even in human form, Catseye was able to retain some
feline attributes, including her tail. Catseye died at the hands of Fiztroy's
Sentinels during his attack on the Hellfire Club, along with her teammates.
