Simurgh is an Endbringer.

Background

The Simurgh was the third Endbringer to arrive, appearing just after the turn of the millennium.

Appearance

She seems human, but fifteen or so feet tall, waif-thin, and unclothed. Her hair is nearly as long as she was tall and platinum-white. The most shocking part of it all is her wings; she had so many, asymmetrical and illogical in their arrangement, each with pristine white feathers. The three largest wings folded around her protectively, far too large in proportion to her body, even with her height. Other wings of varying size fanned out from the joints of others, from the wing tips, and from her spine. Some seemed to be positioned to give the illusion of modesty, angled around her chest and pelvis. There are parts of her that are Hollow. One hand, one leg, some of her hair, her shoulder, they are made up of feathers, the same alabaster white of her skin, intricately woven and sculpted into a shape that resembled body parts, with enough gaps that he could maybe see the empty darkness beneath. Her features are delicate with high cheekbones. Her eyes are gray from corner to corner. And cold.

Abilities and Powers

The Simurgh possesses a psychic 'scream' - a type of psychic echolocation that allows her to scan her surroundings while exerting psychic pressure to alter behavior, implant messages or create compulsions. She uses these scans to make long-term predictions of behavior and activity (in the order of months and years) to turn human beings into rube-Goldberg devices, with streams or stringers of horrific events occurring in areas she has been active. This includes laying the groundwork for major heroes to be attacked at the opening of a future crisis or the creation of super villains of international notoriety. To victims it is a ceaseless scream in the back of their minds changing in pitch and tone with every minute.

The Simurgh is also a telekinetic capable of tossing buildings and flight while her scan allows her to borrow and copy techniques and mental powers - including Tinker powers - and then telekinetically pulling together a macro-scale version of their devices from the surrounding materials. Unlike leviathan her macro control can also be finer. Controlling falling snow into a decoy to escape scion.
