KCK has a superhero named Nyx?

Citizens of Kansas City, Kansas, a superhero walks among you — but not for long. The World Superhero Registry (didn’t Captain America just fight superhero registration?) says a female crime fighter named Nyx guards the streets of KCK but will soon move to New York.

Damn, Gotham always steals the best heroes.

Nyx has had a bit of an identity crisis. She was formerly known as Hellcat, Felinity and Sphynx. In Greek mythology, Nyx was the goddess of the night, a beautiful and powerful but shadowy figure

who mothered the gods of sleep and death.

Here’s a brief bio from Nyx’ MySpace profile:

“I am Nyx, masked protector of the night…

Like the night, I cannot be proven or disproven to certain degrees;

and also much like the night, when morning comes there will be no trace

of me.

It’s impossible to define but I feel a certain degree of loyalty to

every being that inhabits this earth, a compulsion to watch — to

help — to protect.

I respect all RLSH [Real Life Super Heroes] of every sort, it’s not an easy life we’ve chosen but we’ve chosen it nonetheless.”
