On one of her two visits to Asgard, she met the demonic Garm, a gigantic wolf who guards the entrance to the netherworld. Rahne began a relationship with teammate Cypher, and was devastated when he was killed by the Ani-Mator. She was disturbed to find herself attracted to Hrimhari, a shapeshifting wolf prince while in Asgard. These feelings were at odds with the pure joy she found in using her powers, causing a deep emotional conflict. Rahne's strict religious upbringing often made her uncomfortable when dealing with mythological entities, her sorceress teammate Magik, or demons, as well as making her uncomfortable almost to the point of self-loathing with her superhuman power, which resembles the transformations of a werewolf. Danielle discovered she was able to establish a psychic link with Rahne when the latter was in wolf or wolfoid form. Although she was a shy, emotionally repressed girl, Rahne managed to build a strong friendship with Danielle Moonstar and harbor a crush on Sam Guthrie. Rahne was the youngest of the New Mutants, who often operated as adventurers when not in school. Later, when she confronted Reverend Craig as an adult, she learned that Reverend Craig was actually her biological father and that her mother had been a prostitute. Rahne was rescued and later adopted by Moira MacTaggert. When she was revealed as a mutant, Reverend Craig led an angry mob intending to burn her at the stake. Rahne was raised as an orphan by an abusive pastor named Reverend Craig who beat religion into her from an early age. She remained with that team for much of its existence. She was recruited by Professor X to become a student at his School for Gifted Youngsters, and to join the original New Mutants. Rahne (pronounced "Rain") is a British citizen of Scottish descent (born somewhere in Ross and Cromarty) who was a ward of Moira MacTaggert.
