Grace (Soulfire) - Physical Description

Physical Description

Grace is pictured as a stunningly beautiful, lithe, athletic woman with large and powerful dragonfly wings on her back. She uses the wings for flight and, at least on one occasion, as weapons - despite their delicate appearance, the wings are strong enough to block incoming blows and inflict damage. When not in flight, Grace folds the wings along her back, and they can be concealed by a cloak.

Grace has a tattoo of dragonfly wings on her face and a full dragonfly tattoo on her back. The meaning of these markings is not yet known, but they may have something to do with her status as the "chosen one" of her race.

The "modern" Grace is seen wearing typical skin-tight outfits typical of superheroes with elements of armor. Her depictions from both the Dying of the Light series and from the main Soulfire run suggest that she prefers minimal clothing, and her wardrobe often includes a flowing, translucent half-skirt. In cover art, and when not in battle, she is frequently pictured barefoot.

Famous quotes containing the words physical and/or description:

    Man’s characteristic privilege is that the bond he accepts is not physical but moral; that is, social. He is governed not by a material environment brutally imposed on him, but by a conscience superior to his own, the superiority of which he feels. Because the greater, better part of his existence transcends the body, he escapes the body’s yoke, but is subject to that of society.
    Emile Durkheim (1858–1917)

    God damnit, why must all those journalists be such sticklers for detail? Why, they’d hold you to an accurate description of the first time you ever made love, expecting you to remember the color of the room and the shape of the windows.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
