First appearance: X-Force #11, June 1992. Curious thing about her was that the overrated Rob Liefeld was the artist who co-created her at the time, along with Fabian Nicieza. And another interesting thing about her was that, shortly before she officially debuted, there was an imposter who appeared before her! (in New Mutants #98, the series that preceded X-Force.) Her exact name isn’t certain, but at times, she’s been identified as either Neena Thomas or Beatrice Thurman, the latter used when once married to a man named Milo Thurman.

Current status: still a member of both X-Force and another team called Six-Pack.

Was subjected to the following acts of discrimination: in 1996-97, in the "Operation: Zero Tolerance" crossover in a lot of the X-titles, she was taken prisoner by the meta-human villain Bastion, and he and his cohorts tortured her, which affected her mentally and physically.

What’s wrong with how this was done? It was going overboard. It was sadistic. That’s the best that can be said about it.

She was also once brainwashed into attempting to kill Cable, her occasional boyfriend. It really wasn’t called for either.
