Tornado Twin (Dawn Allen)

Dawn Allen is heroine from DC Comics. She is the daughter of Barry Allen and Iris Allen, the mother of Jenni Ognats XS, and a member of Flash Family, the Tornado Twins and the Legion of Super-Heroes.
==Personality==
According to their mother Iris, Dawn was more temperamental. She is dominant, often running ahead of her brother. Dawn is ill-tempered and prefers to follow her instincts.
Like her father, Dawn has a strong inclination to use her super speed to fight crime and selflessly put herself in danger to protect others. In a heroic act, she sacrificed herself, along with her brother, to the Dominators during the Invasion in order to save their friends and family.
==Biography==
Due to the exploitative policies of Earthgov and the prevalent xenophobia on Earth, Iris encouraged her children to conceal their powers. When Wally West arrived in their century after being lost in time, he was surprised to learn that they were not using their speed to fight crime. However, they sprang into action to save Wally from a mob that he had unsuccessfully tried to stop from lynching an alien. The twins later provided some of their Speed Force energy to help Wally return to his own time. This encounter influenced the Allens, and they eventually became the superhero duo known as the Tornado Twins.Dawn later married Jeven Ognats and had a daughter named Jenni, who became a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes as XS. Shortly after Jenni's birth, their family was attacked by the villainous Professor Zoom. They, along with Don's family, attempted to escape to a parallel Earth using the Cosmic Treadmill. However, Zoom sabotaged the device, resulting in an explosion that created a rift in the multiverse. While Zoom was ultimately defeated by a combined force of three different Legions of Super-Heroes, Dawn and her family became stranded on Earth-247.
Dawn and her brother eventually sacrificed their lives to protect Earth from the Dominators. Before the Crisis on Infinite Earths, Barry Allen and Iris West traveled to the 30th century, where they settled and conceived twins, Don and Dawn Allen. Barry was only able to spend a month with his children before being called back to the present day to aid in the Crisis. Tragically, he was seemingly killed during the conflict.
Over the following years, Dawn and Don grew up, inheriting their father's super-speed and becoming the Tornado Twins. Dawn later gave birth to Jenni Ognats, who became a hero in her own right.
Eventually, Dawn and Don were seemingly lost in a battle with the Dominators but were saved by Eobard Thawne, Barry's greatest enemy. Thawne tainted them with the Reverse Speed Force, turning them to his side. He unleashed them against an aged Flash in a future version of Central City and later brought them back to the present, making them part of his Legion of Zoom.
The Tornado Twins encountered Impulse, Don's son, who convinced them to stop fighting when they realized that Thawne had manipulated them using the Negative Speed Force. Don and Dawn started to fade away, with Dawn asking Bart to apologize to Iris for their actions before they returned home.
Don and Dawn were later visited by their parents, who used the Cosmic Treadmill of the Flash Museum to travel to the 30th century. The Allen family had many adventures together before Barry and Iris tearfully returned to the present.
==Powers and Abilities==
The Tornado Twins inherited one-third of their father Barry Allen's speed, as they are known for their connection to the Speed Force and their ability to fly and generate tornadoes, hence their nickname.
===Powers===
*Speed Force Conduit: Speed Force conduits possess a connection to the Speed Force, a cosmic force that allows its users to surpass the limits that hold time and space together. As conduits of the Speed Force, all aspects of their physiology are accelerated and enhanced.
**Accelerated Healing: By having a connection to the Speed Force, every Speed Force conduit has incredibly fast healing ability and can heal from most injuries in seconds and devastating injuries in minutes.
*Enhanced Senses: The Speed Force enhances the speedsters' senses, allowing them to perceive and process thoughts faster than a normal person. Phasing: Speed Force conduits can tap into the Speed Force to vibrate their molecules in a way that achieves short bursts of intangibility, allowing them to pass through objects.
*Speed Force Aura: The Speed Force manifests an aura around the speedsters and everything they carry, protecting them from the adverse effects of their speed, such as air friction.
*Superhuman Durability: The Speed Force Aura also protects speedsters from kinetic impacts, making them much more durable and resistant to injuries than an average human.
*Superhuman Stamina: The Speed Force grants its conduits a significant increase in stamina, allowing them to fight or run for much longer than an ordinary person. Although it's a substantial increase, it is not unlimited. Superhuman Speed: Being a Speed Force conduit grants the user imperceptible amounts of speed. All powers that conduits possess are derived from their speed. This also includes:
*Superhuman Agility: The speedsters' agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to superhuman levels. This allows them to maneuver easily while moving at superhuman speed. Superhuman Reflexes: In conjunction with their enhanced senses, the speedsters' reflexes are immensely heightened, allowing them to dodge or react faster than normal. Vortex Creations: Speed Force conduits are capable of creating vortices of air by running in circles or spinning their extremities at super-speed. These vortices can be used for various effects.
