Wanda Maximoff

Wanda Maximoff (Scarlet Witch) is a fictional character created by Marvel Comics. Introduced as a minor villain in the X-Men series, Scarlet Witch soon became a popular hero, joining the Avengers and being featured as either a central character or key element in many core events of the Marvel Universe (including Avengers Disassemble, House of M, M-Day and Avengers vs. X-Men).
==Background==
The Scarlet Witch is one of the most powerful beings on Earth, able to alter reality on a multiversal scale but is someone who is prone to mental breakdowns due to her mental illness, though usually it's under control. She has been a member of the Avengers superhero team for decades, and for a long time believed that she was a mutant who was the daughter of Magneto.
In reality, she is an orphan who was engineered by the High Evolutionary and her magical powers were amplified by the Elder God Chthon. Chthon has manipulated her several times and on occasion has been able to possess her, until her teammates broke his control over her.
