Little Miss Scary (Superhero AU)

In the Superhero AU, Miss Scary is a being from another dimension with the power to induce horrific hallucinations onto others.

Origin
Her origin and what her former life was like is unknown, though she admits that she is from another dimension, and that she isn't in her real form, only taking the appearance of a shaped being/human as she claims that her true form is "too disturbing beyond comprehension".

She prefers to keep her motives and why she was brought to this dimension a secret, only claiming that she was brought to this world via a wormhole.

Powers
Miss Scary has the ability to induce intense hallucinations onto people, which can often turn so scary that it can cause the victim to go insane. Her main type is using visions of body horror and incomprehensible monsters to make others crumble with fear.

She has a shadow sidekick named Midnight, which takes on the normal form of a bat. While he doesn’t have much to him, he can actually posses someone’s shadow and literally make the person’s shadow turn on them. The way you can tell your shadow has been possessed is it will have a wild smile on its face.

Weaknesses

 * Any light-related powers
 * Divine powers including from crosses and holy water

Morality and Personality
Miss Scary appears morally ambiguious at first, though eventually it becomes clear that despite her dark and fearsome appearance, she is on the good guy side as she helps out other heroes.

Despite her mysterious personality and interdimensional origin, she doesn't have any trouble socializing, and has a goofy side to her.

Miss Scary mainly prefers to work at night, hiding in the shadows so that bad guys don't see her.
