Kitty Pryde, also known as Shadowcat, is a mutant in The X-Men; she has the ability to phase through solid matter.

She was an inspiration to Joss Whedon in the creation of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and his kick-ass girl characters.

She has also been critiqued as an exemplar of the "passive power" often given to girls.
