The indigenous comic character OTD is Eden Fesi /Manifold from Marvel, who is indigenous Australian!
Eden debuted in Secret Warriors #4 in 2009. Trained by Gateway, his powers at first seem to be teleportation, but really he's a universal shaper.

When her powers first manifested, Sarah was hunted down by the International Operations organization. Eventually, she and other superpowered people formed Gen 13.
faq ;; If the writing is respectful and well-researched, then yes. Like when we allowed fantasy disabilities though, it'll be more heavily scrutinized before posting to ensure it's something people would actually feel represented by.

Likewise, while I do my own research, I'm not familiar with every character. If something gets posted and you feel it's harmful rep, please please let me know so I can take it down! ❤️
Also please think about who you're submitting! Especially in the Big Two, many indigenous characters have been portrayed badly. If a character exists SOLELY as a bad stereotype, please do not submit them. We want posts to be uplifting. Thank you. 🥰
