Loa, whose real name is Alani Ryan, is a mutant character in Marvel Comics. She possesses the ability to disrupt molecular bonds, primarily affecting solid matter.

Born in Hawaii, Alani discovered her powers manifested during puberty. Her mutant ability allows her to pass through solid objects by disrupting their atomic structure, although she can also use this offensively, causing objects to shatter or disintegrate.

Loa was a student at the Xavier Institute for Higher Learning and a member of the New X-Men squad led by Surge. During her time there, she struggled to fully control her powers and adapt to life at the institute.

She is notable for her connection to Namor, having harbored a romantic interest in him and even sharing a brief relationship. Her powers proved useful during various X-Men conflicts, though her inexperience often put her at risk.

Loa's appearances are primarily within the X-Men related comic titles. She has been an active member during various crisis events.
