FIRST APPEARANCE: Cyblade/Shi #1, 1995

Sara Pezzini, following in her father's footsteps, joined the NYPD to "bring bad men to their knees".

Once, all she needed was her gun, but now she wields the power of the Witchblade. Since bonding with this semi-sentient gauntlet, Sara's life has been enmeshed with mystery. Her possession of the Witchblade has made her a target for many people, including high-profile businessman, Kenneth Irons, who want to harness the power of the Witchblade for themselves and their own ends.

Sara's investigative methods are sometimes unconventional. On occasion, this has brought her into conflict with her partner, Jake, and her superior, Joe Siry, with whom she shares an almost father/daughter relationship.

Even though she is impulsive and hot-headed, Sara Pezzini has proven herself to be a reliable detective. She possesses an air of purity about her which belies a more dangerous, sensual side. Her sense of stubborn independence conflicts with a secret desire to lead a more "normal" life... something she may never know, now that she has been chosen by the Witchblade as this generation's wielder.
