Tarot question...

The Tarot from The Hellions, this chick...

I once heard, in this forum, that she could summon an extremely powerful incarnation of death or some such. Just kind of caught my attention, a really obscure, powerful character. That kind of thing usualy does it for me. So, can someone elaborate, and could she do anything else that was impressive?

Long time ago, I can't remember the Death-summon, but I do remember her summoning a demonic slave with a chain. The chain wrapped around Illyana and turned her slowly in a demon as well (it seemed unrelated to Illyana's own demonic-part.)

Apart from that, she turned up again with the New Hellions and she could predict the future with her tarot-cards.

Yeah, I saw that yesterday. I've been reading a lot of New Mutants lately. :)

I recall her summoning death when fighting the new warriors, I recall it was able to fight Nova on equal terms. Though my memory of such is hazy.

Actually, Tarot summoned an image of the Devil, who snared Dani with his chain. He slowly transformed her into a demon. Illyana freed Dani with her Soul Sword, but was attacked by the Knight of Swords. The Knight's steed nearly kicked off Illyana's head, but she escaped with Dani into Limbo.

You have a scan of the Tarot turning Dani into a demon thing?

sounds... interesting.

Unfortunately, no, although I have the issue. However, it's not hard to find in back-issue bins at comic books stores.

I love Tarot. For some good Tarot stuff, check out X-Force 87-90.

Tarot's demon enslaved Mirage & corrupted her. As a result, Illyana horrified her friend seemingly become a demon summons her Soulsword & frees Mirage. Magik then destroys Tarot's demon & the psychic backlash causes Tarot to become unconscious. Magik & Mirage flee to Limbo while the New Mutants become Hellions (sort of).

Tarot turned Dani into a demon? When was that?

The New Mutants #15-17 (first appearance of the Hellions. The White Queen attempts to subvert Kitty & the New Mutants to become Hellions. Mirage & Magik help save the New Mutants from the White Queen. The X-Men were away on the Beyonder's planet during "The Secret Wars" at this time; therefore, the New Mutants had to save Kitty & Doug from the White Queen & the Hellfire Club!)

Almost turned her into a demon. Early on in New Mutants...

i always wondered about tarot...
her mutant power revolved around a deck of cards...
like, how did she even know she was a mutant before that?
was she playing around with a deck of tarot cards and...BAM they came to life?
was she mysteriously drawn to a deck of them?
did her mutant power manifest the cards along with her powers at puberty?
how many other people in the marvel universe could be mutants and not even know it because there power revolved around obscure items? like what if some random guy has the power to turn carburetors for '82 cadillac devilles into incredible weapons of mass destruction but he never found out because he never dealt with one?
maybe im thinking about it too much, lol...
