IDENTITY Wanda Maximoff, better known by many as the Scarlet Witch, is a character from marvel comics who is a superpowered member of the Earth’s mightiest heroes called the Avengers . She first appeared in the comic series, “ Uncanny X-Men ” that was released in 1964 as a member of Magneto’s Brotherhood of Evil Mutants together with her brother.
ORIGIN During the early stage of her story, she and her twin brother Pietro were assumed to be the children of the mutant master of magnetism, Magneto. But it was later debunked by the High Evolutionary saying that after he concluded them as failed experiments, they were eventually returned to an old Romani couple being enhanced individuals disguised as mutants. But another plot twist was revealed warping their origin for the second in a later-on comic series stating that they were the children of Natalya Maximoff, the former Scarlet Witch.
FAMILY Wanda is deeply in love with an android synthezoid named Vision, who was also a member of the Avengers. Their somewhat odd relationship was frowned upon by many especially by her brother who didn’t approve of their romantic pursuit for each other. But later on, he accepted their relationship and even supported them on being wedded to each other and having a family. However, due to Vision being unable to procreate, she unconsciously used her reality-altering powers to render herself pregnant. Eventually. she gave birth to twins who were named as Billy & Tommy Maximoff.
POWERS Wanda is a person of magical birthright due to her mother being a witch. She and her brother were taken by a mad scientist named the High Evolutionary to the Wundagore mountain and were experimented. As a result, she became more receptive to channeling mystical energies, while her brother became a speedster. Her ability to alter, rewrite and warp reality is rooted from Chaos magic, the first form of mystic arts to be conceived, as the result of her personal connection with the Elder God of Chaos, Chthon.
