Katherine "Kitty" Pryde is a fictional character that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Uncanny X-Men #129 (Jan. 1980) and was created by writer-artist John Byrne.
A mutant, Pryde possesses a "phasing" ability that essentially allows her and objects or people with which she is in contact to become intangible. This power also disrupts any electrical field she passes through, and lets her simulate levitation. At the time of her membership, under the codename Shadowcat, Pryde was the youngest person invited to join the team of mutant superheroes the X-Men . Pryde also used the names Sprite and Ariel briefly.
During her early years, she is portrayed as a "kid sister" to many older members of the X-Men , filling the role of literary foil to the more established characters. In the years since her introduction, she has aged and matured, and has become a main character on her own.
