Known Powers: The Blackcat possesses no powers but does have quite an array of helpful gadgets. Gloves with retracktible claws, talon knives, implants that increase her strength, speed, agility, implants that let her land on her feet, contact lenses that let her see in the dark, and a grapling hook.
History: Felicia began her criminal career out of respect for her cat-burglar father, but kept it on a misguided attempt to attract Spideman. Eventhough she knew that Spiderman was really Peter Parker. Felicia's abilities were fully natural, with the 'accidents' that befell who ever crossed her path being just well-planned stunts. After almost getting killed by The Owl and Doc Ock, Felicia thought that her lack of powers made her vulnerable to Spider-Man. While Peter was away in Secret Wars, Felicia went to Kingpin, and made a pact with him in return for his scientists giving her super-powers. She kept it a secret from Peter for a long time. But what she didn't know was that her new bad-luck power was infectious, and that it was permanently jinxing Spiderman. That was the Kingpin's plan all along. She broke up with Spiderman, and Dr. Strange removed her bad-luck power, changing her own abilities in the process. Since then she settled into a life of her own. She dated Flash Thompson for a while, primarily to irritate Peter. |
