Wanda Maximoff

Wanda Maximoff known as The Scarlet Witch from X-Men: Evolution.

History: The Scarlet Witch, also known as Wanda Maximoff, was sent to an asylum by her father Magneto shortly after her mutant powers emerged at a young age. Magneto claimed it was necessary because he was unable to help control her dangerous powers, but Wanda always resented him for it. She was released from imprisonment by Mystique in order to bolster the Brotherhood ranks. However, Wanda was more interested in revenge against her father than fighting for the Brotherhood. Wanda suffers from emotional damage from her years locked up in an asylum. But she appears to regain much of her sanity as the series progresses. Wanda has the ability to "hex" other mutants' powers to make them go haywire or for attacks to be shot back at the original attacker. Wanda grew up with her father and her twin brother, Pietro in New York City. When she developed her mutant powers at an young age, her father decided to commit her to an institution, as he didn't have the time to deal with a hostile, out-of-control brat whose powers were very destructive if he didn't get her put away. Even though he ignored her pleads, Wanda cried to her father not to leave her there. Wanda spent years there, harboring a deep-seated anger and hatred for both her father and brother. At some point, she started taking sessions with Charles Xavier to help her learn to control her powerful mutant powers, but he was unable to reach her. Later Wanda was released from imprisonment by Mystique; who sought to use her in her own revenge against Magneto. Wanda spent much of her introductory series searching for her father, eventually finding and attempting to kill him. A guard radios to someone else to bring in the patient. A maximum security holding cell opens and a girl is released.

Personality: Wanda is an angsty, troubled, independent, unstable, and vengeful person. She has issues, to put it mildly. She isn’t a very happy person as she has a lot of pent up anger and hostility, although thanks to Mastermind rewriting her memories, she can’t identify the source of it. Wanda holds powerful and consuming grudges that she lets fester inside instead of trying to let go. Wanda’s social skills are underdeveloped due to years of being institutionalized. She’s more accustomed to her own company, and she finds “normal” social interaction challenging. Wanda is somewhat of an introvert as she is quiet and not especially outgoing, but she is not a timid person and is very assertive and determined when she is pursuing a goal. Despite her anger and anti-social issues, Wanda has been shown to be quite compassionate and sympathetic to those she considers a friend or at least an ally.

Physical Appearance: Wanda is a teenaged Romani girl with blue eyes, during her time locked away, her hair is black which was kept untamed and unkept whilst locked away but after being freed, she cut it to a much more shorter length to keep it out of her face with a red undertone. She also often wears a dark shade of red eyeshadow with matching lipstick and nail polish. Wanda’s age is probably 21years-old at the end of the series and her Height is 5’9. Wanda appears to be goth.She usually wears a red get-up but is usually seen either in her casual or in her battle uniform. After being freed from the institute she was locked up in, Wanda had short and wild hair but trimmed it to a more clean, shorter cut which she sports throughout the show.
