History
Dust is an adolescent Sunni Muslim girl who possesses the mutant power to turn herself into a sand-like substance. Born in Afghanistan, she was rescued by Wolverine and Fantomex from a slave-trading ring and sent to the X-Corps base in India. Sooraya hid herself from the X-Men who were stationed there until Phoenix sensed Sooraya's presence and telepathically coerced her to reveal herself to everyone present. The word spoken by Sooraya was "dust."
Ultimately, Dust was enrolled at the Xavier Institute in Westchester County, New York. Quiet and nervous, she has experienced difficulty adapting to her new surroundings - particularly after being given the loud and rebellious Surge as a roommate. Sooraya and Surge often come to disagreements over the traditional garb which Surge believes to be an affront to women's rights. While Sooraya was initially placed into Xorn's Special Class but was picked on for standing by her faith, and allegedly placing its importance over the cause of mutants. It was thus Dust who alerted Professor Xavier to Xorn's 'true' identity.
