Amaranth Hawlut (Earth-616)

Sign in to edit

Amaranth Hawlut is a former apprentice of the Scarlet Witch, and a creation of the abstract entities Witchcraft and Chaos.

History

When witchcraft and magic itself were dying, Wanda Maximoff went to Witches' Road on a quest to fix it along with Agatha Harkness and Natalya Maximoff. The three witches eventually discovered that Chaos was attempting to overthrow Witchcraft. So Natalya sacrificed herself, with her soul reviving Witchcraft. Her sacrifice inspired the two abstract entities to set aside their fighting and try to aim for a balance between the two, so they decided to create a child to represent the "living embodiment of their truce", and they named her Aaf Capmi Piap, meaning "Among Power, Balance".[4][5][1]

As she grew up on Earth, Piap chose the name Amaranth for herself. At some point, she was adopted by Philip Hawlut, unaware of her real origin. She was eventually sent by Agatha Harkness to become Wanda Maximoff's new apprentice.[6] She also became an ally of the New Champions.[3]
