Talk:Silk Fever
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There seems to be a recurring misunderstanding in the Folding Circle articles. Silk Fever, Bloodstrike, Smiling Tiger, Silhouette and Midnight's Fire are mutants despite their connection to the wellspring. The members of the folding circle were not turned into superhumans by all of a sudden being exposed to the wellspring. They recieve their powers because each of their mothers is descended from a cult that has been absorbing the energy of the wellspring for centuries. They are mutants much in the same way Beast is a mutant because his father worked in a nuclear plant.
I also edited out the part about Silk Fever's mother being Tai's daughter. Tai said Silhoutte's mother Miyami was her only daughter. The other brides were descended from other couples in the cult who had been killed by Tai
