Cheyenne was the daughter of two metahumans. As a child she saw how people treated her family over their powers, so she decided to keep her gift of telekinesis a secret.

Cheyenne first met Dick Grayson when they had a one night stand together. They only exchanged names the next morning. The two had breakfast together and then he left. When Dick left a strange man walked into her apartment. The man was a stalker who was in love with her and seeing her with another man enraged him and he attempted to assault her, but Cheyenne lashed out her with her telekinesis and she blasted him away. Dick found out Cheyenne was a fashion designer from a friend of his, Dr. Bridget Clancy, from Bludhaven. She ran into Dick again after he accidentally became a model for her. After seeing newspaper clippings of Nightwing ( Jason Todd) she started creating superhero themed designs. Initially, Cheyenne refused Dick's offer to become a superhero, but she donned her own Nightwing costume to save Dick and Jason from a metahuman monster named Jakob. Jakob swallowed her alive, but she used her powers to blow him up from the inside. She soon retired, preferring to keep her psionic powers hidden.
