BANDIT
Real Name: Donyell Taylor
First Appearance: Night Thrasher (Vol. 1) #3, October 1993 (as Bandit); New Warriors (Vol. 4) #1, August 2007 (As Night Thrasher II)
Powers: Bandit possesses a pseudo-mystical mutant ability derived from the prophecy of the Pact of the Dragons' Breadth. He is capable of generating a bio-electrical current through his body and channeling it through conductive mediums. Thus, he used a wrist-mounted crossbow which fired wire-guided bolts, which he electrified after they hit and pierced into their targets. Bandit has also employed bola loops as a conduit for his power.
As Night Thrasher II, Donyell wears a full body armor patterned after his brother's. He has a photonic generator in his forearm which creates a badge shaped shield for protection, and uses a pair of solid energy photonic truncheons as well. Like all members of the new New Warriors, Night Thrasher II had a utility belt with cartridges containing Pym Particles for reducing opponents down to size or impact webbing for quickly wrapping up and restraining felons. His suit can also generate an anti-gravity platform for flight and propulsion, and contains a Ghost-Mode that renders him intangible and utterly unaffected by physical assaults.
Donyell Taylor is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant, combining expertise in numerous unspecified fighting techniques with exemplary acrobatic skills, allowing him to defeat groups of single-handedly. An accomplished marksman and tactician, he has great business acumen, a natural affinity for education in engineering, robotics, and technical design, and a great aptitude for state-of-the-art computer technology. He is also a competent pilot.

He's a mutant, he was smashin’ Gambit's ex-wife at one point. He’s also Night Thrasher's older illegitimate paternal half-brother.
