History

With Ember
Becca Constance Simon-Pinette (of the Loudoun County Simon-Pinettes) was a mutant born to a wealthy and overprotective mother. She kept Becca from the outside world, raised her as a perfect American princess, and taught her to hate and fear mutants, causing her to have difficulty in accepting herself since she discovered she was one.[2]
Becca and her horse, Ember, with which she shares a psychic connection,[3] were later pursued by a monstrous creature called the Hag alongside three other young mutants, which prompted the group to seek the X-Men's help. After engaging in a brief fight against the X-Men over a misunderstanding, Becca and the other Outliers were taken in as their new students.[5]Attributes
