Sahira is Heather Brown's dorm-mate who plans on becoming a wardrobe designer. She was the first to become aware of Heather new status as a superhero. She sews outfits for Heather and generally puts up with her antics while she stumbles around trying to get the hang of her powers. She has a tendency to lampshade the impossibility of some of Heather's spider powers, in addition to being her voice of reason. She is of Indian descent, and she wears a bindi on her forehead.
Personality
Sahira has a flucuating personality that drifts from a flirtatious drinker to a worried, motherly friend. She can lose her temper with the ever absent minded Heather, but at the end of the day she always seems to come through. She acts as a wing man for her dormmate, often giving hints on what to do about Darien. She's been seen as religious, scoffing at heather when she suggests that Spinnerette is like Kali (the Hindu goddess.) stating that they only share one superficial characteristic, and it's the same as comparing anyone with a beard to Jesus.
Abilities
With the aid of Heather's plushy "Mr. Webby", she can temporarily copy other superpowers, depending upon whose DNA has been in contact with it. She is not limited to only one power as she has been shown aqquiring multiple powers at once. This is first demonstrated in Chapter 5 when she suddenly develops Heather's spider powers, including her six arms, demonstrating her dislike for these abilities by accidentally defenestrating Heather. However, she later accepts this ability, and typically uses this ability to mundane effect by employing them for household chores. In Chapter 14, the transformations that come from this ability are hinted to last roughly half an hour.
