    8/no


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    No alias rules out a lot, eg:
    Wonder Woman / Diana Prince
    Super Girl / Kara
    Pretty much any of the X-Men, eg: Phoenix / Jean Grey

    Would all the characters you mention not originate from Comics as opposed to movies?


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    True. Just saying that not having an alias rules a lot of characters out. They were the first to come to my head is all.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    So:
    Female fictional character
    Originated in a sci-fi or fantasy film made prior to 2000
    Has no alias
    Has special powers or abilities


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I'm struggling to think of any character with a special ability without an alias

    I'm not guessing but Gozer from Ghostbusters comes to mind.

    Edit: Gozer has a human form but is technically not human!

    Okay, let's narrow down the movie's age a bit.

    Was the movie made prior to 1980, ie 1979 or earlier?

    Made between 1980 and 1999.
