Meet Xaniya
Xaniya is 6 years old and suffers from asthma, a condition all too common in today’s world. She needs to come to the doctor to make sure her lungs are working the best they can, and always has an inhaler with her in case she needs it.
Xaniya is a very creative child. She grew up in an overlap of her family’s two cultures – African American and Filipino – and has large families on both sides. She lives with her 16 year old half sister and is a practicing Catholic.
Xaniya loves to play with barbies, singing and dancing. - As the superhero Breeze, Xaniya’s powers come from her lungs – she can make powerful gusts of air, as cold as she wants them to be – sometimes cold enough to freeze time. This makes her a very useful and important member of the superhero team, and she is always along for the adventure.
