History

Son of M Vol 1 4 Textless

Birth and Childhood

Luna Maximoff is the daughter of Quicksilver and Crystal. She was named after the moon, having been born there.[citation needed]

The first child to be born to a mutant and Inhuman otherwise known as Inmutant, the genetic markers denoting these subgroups in humanity supposedly "canceled out" in her, leaving her a normal human.[3] While Quicksilver, aghast at the thought of having a human, daughter, initially sought to expose her to the Inhumans' mutagenic Terrigen Mists. However, he was talked out of this[4] by Gorgon and Karnak, impersonating Lockjaw to make their point.[5]

Decimation

Years later, when Luna was six years old, Quicksilver was depowered by the Decimation of mutant-kind. Desperate to get his powers back, he exposed himself to the mists, and subsequently talked Luna into returning to Earth with him, where he exposed her to some collected mist too, believing this to be a birthright she had thus far been denied. The process was successful, and granted Luna the ability to sense, remove and alter the emotions of others at will.[citation needed]

Luna accompanied Quicksilver on his quest to re-power mutants using the mists, encountering her grandfather Magneto. After sensing deep sadness in him, and offering to remove it, Magneto scolded her, saying that she must never tamped with the emotions of others against their will. After Magneto and her father engaged in a vicious argument that turned violent, Quicksilver physically assaulting Magneto, Quicksilver realized that he could not endanger Luna by keeping her with him, and left her to be retrieved by her mother and the other Inhumans.[citation needed]

In space

Luna accompanied the Inhumans when they moved to Hala in order to take up rulership of the Kree Empire. Her father visited the Inhumans on Hala, bringing with him the long lost Xerogen Crystals and claiming that a Skrull impostor had been the one that stole the Terrigen Crystals. While her father was pardoned and forgiven by the Inhumans, including Crystal, Luna told him that she knew he was lying and that while she would keep his secret out of love for him, she could never forgive him for what he had done.[citation needed]

Recently, Quicksilver made a full confession on network television about the lies he had told and owned up to his deceptions. Luna was so moved by his actions that she sought him out and the two fully reconciled.[citation needed]
