Erica Fortune (Earth-616)

Erica Fortune was a New York University teacher who discovered she possessed great telekinetic power when her boyfriend, a parapsychology professor, tested her.

Soon after, she and her boyfriend came across two otherdimensional aliens who had used a pair of "power rings" to escape their servitude to a "spellbinder," Zxaxz, and had detected Fortune as another spellbinder. Zxaxz demanded his power rings back, and Fortune battled him, donning the rings herself to amplify. Fortune joined forces with the New Mutants and Lila Cheney to defeat Zxaxz.

Later, a third, more powerful spellbinder, the Other, came to Earth, and Fortune joined forces with Zxaxz to battle this new threat, with the help of her brother Roy, who used the rings to amplify his own latent powers.
