Obsidiana is a gargoyle of the Mayan Clan.
Contents
History
Obsidiana hatched in 1918. [1] At some point before 1993 she was entrusted with the Obsidian Pendant linked to the Mayan Sun Amulet, and thus received her name. [2] By 1968, it was likely that she and Zafiro had become mates and she laid her first egg that year. [3][4] She was patrolling the rainforest with Zafiro, Jade, and Turquesa on the day in 1993 when a group of poachers looted the Mayan Pyramid and destroyed her clan. Fortunately, the rookery was undisturbed and the eggs of the clan, including one she laid in 1988, will hatch in 1998. [5][6]
In 1996, she helped defend the rain forest from Cyberbiotics, and from Jackal and Hyena in Preston Vogel' employ. During a battle with Jackal, a falling tree crashed into her and she apparently broke her right wing. A short rest in her stone sleep healed the injury, however. Obsidiana has limited abilities as a healer using local plants to make bandages, medicines, potions and other useful items. She used these skills to protect a wound Bronx received from Hyena. She also found Elisa to be unusual for a human and was fond of her. After Cyberbiotics pulled it's operations out of the area, she remained in Guatemala with Zafiro to continue protecting "The Green", while Turquesa and Jade went to Avalon to plant some of the flowers and herbs in their charge there. ("The Green")
In 2006, Obsidiana will come to the United States of America. How or why is currently unknown. [7]
Assuming she is still alive, Obsidiana is expected to lay her third egg in 2008. [8] Obsidiana and Zafiro will be the biological ancestors of Zafiro. [9]

There, they catch up with the smugglers only to get distracted by Spider-Man, who attacks them (thinking the gargoyles are genetic mutants).
