Danielle "Dani" Moonstar (also known as Psyche, Mirage, and Moonstar) is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. She first appeared in the graphic novel The New Mutants (Sept. 1982), created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Bob McLeod. The character is usually depicted as associated with the New Mutants, but has also served as a member of the Valkyries of Asgard.
A mutant, Mirage originally possessed the psionic/psychic ability to telepathically create illusions of her opponents' fears or wishes. She later developed a wide range of psionic and energy manipulation powers, and gained magical abilities after a series of adventures in Asgard. She was a member of the New Mutants and, after a long absence, its reincarnation as X-Force. She was also a member of the Fearless Defenders and the X-Men. She was depowered after the "Decimation" storyline, but later regained her mutant powers after being infected with and then cured of Warlock's transmode virus.
Blu Hunt portrayed Danielle Moonstar in the 2020 film The New Mutants.
