History

Scarlet Witch (HoM)

Wanda Magnus was first daughter of King Erik Magnus. She was birthed at Wundagore, in Transia, Europe, by Magda, and was a human. Her brother Pietro was born there as well, though a mutant like his father.

Pietro remained deeply devoted to his sister Wanda, acting as her constant protector during her rare public appearances. A human in a mutant-led world, Wanda kept a low profile, though that didn’t stop the tabloids from speculating about her life, much to the irritation of Magneto.

Wanda had children, but the identity of their father was never made public. Rumors circulated that the father might be television star Simon Williams, known as Wonder Man, though nothing was ever confirmed. Many speculated that Wanda’s human heritage contributed to Magneto’s unusually tolerant stance toward humanity, despite its past attempts to suppress mutantkind.

During the House of M era, Wanda rarely appeared in public but did attend the celebration honoring the House of Magnus. When heroes launched an assault on the royal family, Princess Lorna and Pietro discovered what seemed to be Wanda’s disintegrated remains. Pietro believed the attackers had killed her. However, Doctor Strange later located the real Wanda, who was living quietly with her children.

As Strange questioned her, Hawkeye appeared and attacked, firing an arrow at Wanda. The arrow vanished, and Wanda's children erased Hawkeye from existence. Wanda then revealed how their altered reality had come to be. When she witnessed the battlefield and saw that her brother had been killed by Magneto, she was overcome with grief. Disillusioned by the actions of her family and fellow mutants, Wanda spoke three fateful words—"No more mutants"—instantly unraveling the House of M reality.
