This is sort of the "sister" contest to the Inhumans Edition. Pink Sneckie, Sensor, Jeka, etc, etc was very highly nominated for the Inhumans competition, but I like the idea of having an all female "partly human" contest. So, this one will be hosted by Yera Allon. Sneckie, Jeka, will be a definite competitor, but we need more! I thought of: *Insect Queen in some part human-part insect shape. *Keike (?) the mermaid from the underwater story in the preboot Legionnaires story (art by AH!). So, that's 3. Are there any more? I'm not at home near my collection, so I need nominees! Would Dawnstar count? Nominate!

Nah! Dawnstar doesn't count. If her arms were wings, she'd count.

If Dawnstar doesn't quite count, then Kinetix-with-a-tail probably doesn't either.
This one's a stumper.

What about Shikari in her armored form? (Or is that, like Dawnstar-- too normal?)

My thought is that if it's not clear, the contestant is ineligible. I just remembered that there have been a couple of cat ladies in Legion comics... the secretary to Brande or McCauley in the reboot, drawn by Jason Armstrong. There was also a cat lady in the Circus story in V2.

When Gas Girl first demonstrated her power in the Lallorians' first appearance she didn't turn completely to gas, she had a human face but the rest of her body was a moving gas cloud.
Since Insect Queen could turn from human to half-human/insect, Kinetix with a tail could conceivably be eligible too.
But Set is right. This is a stumper.

I'm inclinded to think that DnA's Sharn Nux is eligible, with her knife-y hands.

Catspaw?
From the wiki entry: A hybrid of human and feline, Catspaw has the agility, speed, and heightened senses (smelling, hearing, and balance) of a cat, as well as retractable claws on her fingertips and toes. She has excellent night-vision and animal-like instincts.

Lessee...
I really don't think Dawnstar fits. Therefore, neither does Zoe with a tail. If she was covered in fur and had kitty ears or something, that'd work.
Laurel Kent works if she's depicted like a cyborg like on that cover. If she's in full Manhunter mode, it's not right.
Gas Girl works if she's in a state of being half human, half gas.
Ayla as a lightning storm is too far from human.
Shikari works best if in her armor, especially since her feet are naturally inhuman looking.
Catspaw would work if I really "catted her up" maybe like in that one reboot panel.
There must be more obscure part human/part non human females in 50 years of comics! I can't wait to get to my collection at home and DIG!
Thanks for the responses, so far!

Well, it makes sense to have nominees with names. I was thinking of possible e.t. races we've seen more than once, even though none comes to mind at the moment. Still looking...

I'll second the butterfly-girl air-elemental from the reboot (shortly before DnA took over) and Catspaw.
What about Lauren's Nanny from the 5YL era?

Was the air elemental's name Flitter or Flutter with one or two oddly placed apostrophes?
And wasn't the nanny Englenna? Or am I getting her confused with Luna's (Crystal and Quicksilver's kid) nanny over at Marvel?
Was she a Dominator?

How about Blok's sister, Strata? She was in LEGION and was seen briefly when Blok died.

Englenna was the nanny for Laurel's daughter Lauren. Was Lauren's last name Vidar? Englenna was a background character in the Bad Girls' Club Holo Model competition.

Visually speaking, I want the contestants in this competition to be part human and part ...something non-human. So...
Sensor
Keike
Insect Queen
and
Gas Girl
...are all in.
I need to double-check on what the butterfly elemental girl looked like. She may become the fifth contestant.
Thanks everybody for the suggestions and discussion. Trust me, I never sit around thinking, "Hmmm.... what should I draw today?"

Well she may be more towards the non-human, since only her head has humanoid features... but how about Leejah, the Composite Man's sister?
