History

Dani Moonstar's winged Asgardian horse. By saving Brightwind from a snare and bonding with the horse, Dani was chosen to become one of the Valkyrior.

When Moonstar fell from grace in Asgard, she returned to Earth and her horse became known as Darkwind. They infiltrated Reignfire's Mutant Liberation Front, but were discovered and Reignfire killed Brightwind. Brightwind's spirit returned to Asgard, but he was returned to Dani when she made a deal with Hela to gain enough power to confront Ares.
