Fictional character biography

Birdy became the partner of Sabretooth. She would use her telepathy to help keep him calm. [3] Birdy accompanied Sabretooth while he searched for answers on who was trying to kill him and Mystique. [4] Mystique revealed that she had given birth to a son, Graydon Creed. [5] Later Birdy was stabbed by Graydon. [6] The character was resurrected in 2022, becoming a counsellor for victims of disasters and the Marauders team. [7] [8]

Powers and abilities

Birdy was a mutant with the power of telepathy. She had clearly achieved some level of skill, being capable of the standard feats of a mutant telepath (mind reading and manipulation, mental communication, psi-blasts, etc.). She was also able to use her telepathy to temporarily satiate Sabretooth's psychotic feral impulses (which he referred to as getting "the glow"). She was able to use 'the glow', combined with the powers of Somnus, to counsel the members of the Marauders inside their dreams, after the events of Judgment Day. [9]

Birdy was also highly skilled with advanced weaponry and explosive, capable of taking down massive groups of the Hand. [4]
