Raza

Full Name: Raza Longknife
Affiliation: Starjammers
Relatives: Zenith (brother, deceased)
Alternate-X Versions: None
Codename Etymology: Pronounced rä'zä [Possibly from Middle French razza "race, breed, lineage," possibly from Italian razza, of unknown origin. Native language meaning unknown].
Powers & History: A member of one of the Shi'ar races, Raza joined his people in rebellion against their conquerors. However, while the rest of his people died in glorious battle, Raza was captured and transformed into a cyborg. He retained his skills with the sword and blaster, but is now faster, stronger and tougher than ever. Nearly indestructible, Raza can survive in vacuum, and could probably weather a nuclear explosion. After breaking out of prison, Raza joined the Starjammers to fight the Shi'ar and repay them for denying him the chance to ever die well.
