==Fictional character biography==
[[Image:Ms-Marvel-009.jpg|left|180px|thumb|Deathbird's first appearance, in ''Ms. Marvel'' (vol. 1) #9 (1977).]]
Deathbird was born Cal'syee Neramani to the ruling house of the Shi'ar Imperium on the Aerie (now known as Chandilar), native world of the Shi'ar. Her name was stripped from her after it was [[prophecy|prophesied]] that she was destined to commit great evil. She was exiled after brutally murdering both her mother and an unnamed sister.<ref>''Ms. Marvel'' #10. Marvel Comics.</ref><ref>''Uncanny X-Men'' #156. Marvel Comics.</ref>

During this exile, she traveled on Earth and became an associate of [[MODOK]] and [[Advanced Idea Mechanics|A.I.M.]] at some point. Following AIM's orders, she battled [[Carol Danvers|Ms. Marvel]] in New York one evening after Carol Danver's Park Avenue penthouse was destroyed by a bomb. The skirmish was interrupted after Deathbird severely injured the superhero, who became distracted trying to save the lives of two small children.<ref>''Ms. Marvel'' #9-10. Marvel Comics.</ref> It later resumed when Carol, going undercover, discovered that AIM had a secret headquarters underneath Alden's Department Store. The battle between the two seemingly ended with Deathbird's demise and MODOK's escape after betraying her. Whether Deathbird sought revenge on AIM remains unknown. She did battle [[Hawkeye (Clint Barton)|Hawkeye]] while still on Earth.<ref>''The Avengers'' #189. Marvel Comics.</ref> She later battles Ms. Marvel again.<ref>''Ms. Marvel'' #22. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Some time later, her younger sister [[Lilandra Neramani|Lilandra]] became Majestrix of the Empire following the events that left their brother, D'Ken, [[coma]]tose. Deathbird decided to take the throne for herself, and allied with the councilman Samedar, alien parasites called the [[Brood (comics)|Brood]], and renegade members of the [[Imperial Guard (Marvel Comics)|Imperial Guard]] in an attempted coup.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #155-157. Marvel Comics.</ref> The X-Men defeated her and her allies, but not before being infected by the Brood (although they were ultimately cured thanks to the efforts of [[Ms. Marvel#Binary and the X-Men|Danvers]] and the [[Acanti]] Soulsinger). She later succeeded in deposing Lilandra with the aid of the Brood, and took the throne for herself.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #161-162. Marvel Comics.</ref> As ruler of the Shi'ar Empire, she contended with the [[Starjammers]] and [[Excalibur (comics)|Excalibur]], and sought to capture [[Rachel Summers]], but was nearly killed by Lilandra in combat.<ref>''X-Men Spotlight On: Starjammers'' #1-2. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Some time later [[Skrull|War Skrulls]] impersonating [[Professor X|Charles Xavier]] and the Starjammers aided Lilandra in deposing Deathbird and restoring her to the throne. With [[Lila Cheney]]'s help, she and the X-Men defeated the War Skrulls, but Deathbird ceded the empire back to Lilandra, since she had grown bored of the bureaucracy.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #274-277. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Deathbird later came to her sister's aid during the short [[Kree-Shi'ar War]], assassinating Kree leaders [[Kree#Notable Kree|Ael-Dann]] and [[Dar-Benn]].<ref>''The Avengers'' #346. Marvel Comics.</ref> She was captured by Hawkeye in his guise as Goliath.<ref>''Iron Man'' #279. Marvel Comics.</ref> She was later released and granted dominion over the conquered Kree Empire as [[viceroy]], and also made praetor (leader) of the Kree [[Starforce (comics)|Starforce]] by Lilandra.<ref>''The Avengers'' #347. Marvel Comics.</ref> She led the Starforce in a confrontation with [[Quasar (comics)|Quasar]].<ref>''Quasar'' #35. Marvel Comics.</ref> The Kree seem to have since become independent once more.

===Romance with Bishop===
When the [[Shi'ar]] asked for the X-Men's help against the invading [[Phalanx (comics)|Phalanx]], who had already reached their throne-world Chandilar, the X-Men allied themselves with Deathbird. They managed to fend off a Phalanx assault on the Shi'ar Empire, and during the conflict, Deathbird and the X-Man [[Bishop (comics)|Bishop]] forged a warrior's respect for each other. Deathbird was amazed that the Earth mutant showed no fear and stood up to her, and they also seemed physically attracted to each other.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #341-345</ref>

As a gesture of honor, Deathbird escorted the mutants back to Earth, but their ship was inexplicably destroyed in transit.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #348. Marvel Comics.</ref> Deathbird and an injured Bishop escaped using a private ship.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #353. Marvel Comics.</ref> She initially convinced Bishop that he was [[paralysis|paralyzed]] due to his injuries and that, of all the X-Men, only he survived.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #354. Marvel Comics.</ref> However, not before long, Bishop realized that he was not injured but that Deathbird was using the lab equipment to hold him in stasis.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #357. Marvel Comics.</ref> The craft was soon attacked, and Bishop convinced her to release him so that they could deal with the matter together. Eventually, they bonded and soon became romantically involved.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #358. Marvel Comics.</ref>

During their journeys, the two were accidentally transported to an alternate future Earth that was ruled by the evil daughter of Shi'ar Empress Lilandra and Charles Xavier. Bishop and Deathbird helped the rebels in opposing her and Deathbird defeated her niece in a duel. She could have slain her, and every instinct told her to do so, but she let her live. The heroes of the liberated Earth helped Bishop and Deathbird return to their own time, and they continued their quest to get home.<ref>''Team X 2000''. Marvel Comics.</ref>

===Betrayal and theorized heritage===
[[Image:bishop15.jpg|199px|thumb|Cover of ''Bishop: The Last X-Man'' #15 (2000). Art by Georges Jeanty & [[Art Thibert]].]]
Eventually, Bishop and Deathbird return to the Solar System and encountered the inert planetary mass of the [[Living Monolith]] on their way to Terra Firma. Curious, the two land their craft and investigate the man-shaped planet. Suddenly Deathbird betrayed Bishop to a cadre of Skrulls and he was returned to Earth to implement the ultimate plans of the Skrulls' ally, [[Apocalypse (comics)|Apocalypse]].<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #372. Marvel Comics.</ref> Deathbird was herself betrayed and transformed by Apocalypse into one of his [[Horsemen of Apocalypse|Horsemen]].<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #374. Marvel Comics.</ref> With the title of War, Deathbird helped Apocalypse assemble the X-Men he referred to as "the Twelve."<ref>''Cable'' #74. Marvel Comics.</ref><ref>''X-Men'' #96. Marvel Comics.</ref> Apocalypse was defeated, however, and Deathbird and the Horsemen scattered.<ref>''X-Men'' #97. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Deathbird and Bishop later run into each other during the [[Maximum Security (comics)|Maximum Security]] event. Earth had been made a prison planet, with an energy barrier around the [[Solar System]], and Deathbird had the key to unlocking it. Bishop confronts her, and the two fight. Deathbird dares Bishop to kill her, before opening an airlock and getting sucked out into space. Bishop was able to close the airlock, and admits to himself that he hates her.<ref>''Bishop: The Last X-Man'' #15. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Sometime later a globetrotting X-Men team led by Storm exile themselves from their home and teammates to find Destiny's thirteen diaries since none like the idea of having their destinies defined.<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #1. Marvel Comics.</ref> This team would recruits new members [[Lifeguard (comics)|Heather Cameron]] and her brother [[Slipstream (comics)|Davis]].<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #9-10. Marvel Comics.</ref> During a mission to infiltrate the ship of the intergalactic warlord Khan, Heather's appearance changes to resemble the alien Shi'ar race, and it was theorized that she and Davis had some Shi'ar heritage, Jean Grey noting that the cranial markings on her head and the crest of feathers she had manifested indicated Heather is of Shi'ar royal ancestry.<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #14. Marvel Comics.</ref> An entry from Destiny's diary seems to imply that at least Heather was "Mothered by War," which happened to be Deathbird's Horseman moniker while she was serving Apocalypse. The entry shows a picture of Deathbird facing off some of the X-Treme team members (Storm, Bishop, Thunderbird and Lifeguard in her Shi'ar appearance).<ref>''X-Treme X-Men'' #10. Marvel Comics.</ref>

===The Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire===
Deathbird was rescued by the Imperial Guard; Lilandra imprisoned her because she posed a threat to her rule.{{issue|date=December 2023}} [[Vulcan (Marvel Comics)|Vulcan]] is captured by the palace guard as he enters Shi'ar territory on his quest for vengeance against the entire Shi'ar race.{{issue|date=December 2023}} He is incarcerated in the same maximum security installation that houses Deathbird.{{issue|date=December 2023}} Vulcan is released by a member of a secret order that wishes [[D'Ken]] to lead the Shi'ar once more; Vulcan releases Deathbird.{{issue|date=December 2023}}

Vulcan is enthralled by Deathbird, and they become romantically involved. He promises to put his quest for vengeance on hold.{{issue|date=December 2023}}  Deathbird convinces Vulcan to finish the healing process that the Shi'ar members of the secret order had begun on D'Ken, who remained in a coma since the [[M'Kraan Crystal]] incident.{{issue|date=December 2023}} When D'Ken discerns Vulcan's feelings for Deathbird, he invokes an ancient Shi'ar custom and invites Vulcan to marry Deathbird and become part of Shi'ar royalty.<ref>''The Uncanny X-Men'' #483. Marvel Comics.</ref>

===The Providian Order===
At some point after Vulcan's death she was captured by a top secret organization, however they were not interested in Deathbird, but in her child - a hybrid of an atavistic Shi'ar and a Human Mutant.<ref>''X-Men'' vol. 4 #18. Marvel Comics.</ref> The Providian Order, as the organization calls itself, was created to bring equality and uniformity to the universe, by creating a new perfect race.<ref>''X-Men'' vol. 4 #19. Marvel Comics.</ref> Sharada Darthri, the geneticist of the Providian Order, experimented on the baby and infused it with Kree geneline, thought the influx was stopped by the awakening of Deathbird, who rampaged through the laboratory.<ref>''X-Men'' vol. 4 #20. Marvel Comics.</ref>

==Powers and abilities==
Deathbird is a genetic mutant who belongs to the Shi'ar species.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Allan |first=Scoot |date=2019-07-07 |title=X-Men: The 10 Most Powerful Members Of The Xavier Family, Ranked |url=https://screenrant.com/x-men-10-powerful-members-xavier-family-ranked/ |access-date=2022-11-08 |website=[[Screen Rant]] |language=en-US}}</ref> She possesses superhuman strength, speed, stamina, agility, flexibility, reflexes, coordination, balance, and endurance well beyond the average limits of her race. She shares the same avian-like physiology typical of her race, such as having hollow bones, but in her case the avian characteristics are more pronounced. This is because she is a "genetic throwback", meaning that she resembles the more primitive Shi'ar who were birds of prey. She has inherited atavistic characteristics such as fully functioning wings, which most Shi'ar lack, and is capable of self-propelled flight at a natural winged flight limit velocity.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Murray |first=Kirsten |date=November 18, 2019 |title=X-Men: The 10 Most Powerful Female Villains, Ranked |url=https://www.cbr.com/x-men-powerful-female-villains-ranked/ |access-date=2024-01-10 |website=[[Comic Book Resources]] |language=en}}</ref> Her wings are also very strong, as she could flex her wing to throw Ms. Marvel off the building or to the wall.<ref>''Ms. Marvel'' #9-10. Marvel Comics.</ref> Her fingernails are essentially talons which can score steel and tear through substances such as bone and tissue easily.

Aside from her natural physical advantages, Deathbird is a formidably trained warrior of great skill and cunning, having trained the likes of [[Gladiator (Kallark)|Gladiator]]. She is also skilled at hurling javelins. She uses a variety of javelins, some of which are designed for specific offensive effects. She carries the javelins as eight-inch (203&nbsp;mm) quills on twin wrist-bands; when removed from its sheath, a quill will telescope to about four times its original length. Her standard javelin can be used as a spear-like projectile to wound or kill her foes. She has also used a javelin that emits noxious, acrid fumes upon impact. Some of Deathbird's javelins are so designed that when their tips touch they emit a powerful, repeating 35,000 volt electrical charge. Deathbird has also used other equipment of Shi'ar design, including battle armor, and a large, advanced, one-woman energy cannon.
