Cecilia Reyes is a mutant in the Marvel Comics universe. The character, created by Scott Lobdell and Carlos Pacheco, first appeared in X-Men vol 2 #65 in June 1997.

Within the context of the stories, Cecilia Reyes joins forces with Iceman and other mutants to escape New York City when she is targeted by Operation: Zero Tolerance, a government-backed anti-mutant task force. Soon after, she uses her medical skills to save Cyclops' life and officially becomes a member of the X-Men. When she is kidnapped by interdimensional demons called N'Garai, she escapes with the other civilians who had been abducted. When offered a new life by the Shadow King, Reyes chooses to remain who she is.

She is taken prisoner at a mutant concentration camp called Neverland. There was some debate about her survival until she is shown alive and volunteering in a homeless shelter. She is asked to aid the X-Men again when they move to Utopia, and goes to Mexico with Psylocke in search of a new mutant named Gabriel. She returns to New York City, where she helps care for victims of an earthquake and protects anti-mutant protesters from the Juggernaut. Reyes becomes romantically involved with Gambit and rejoins the X-Men team.
