Scarlet Witch/Illuminati Assembled

Wanda Maximoff is a former member of the Avengers who wields chaos magic as Scarlet Witch. Upon leaving the Avengers, she relocated to the town of Westview and became the mother of two sons, Tommy and Billy. In 2024, her body was hijacked by an alternate universe version of herself. Trapped within her own mind, Maximoff's body was used by her alternate self to massacre the Illuminati. However, Maximoff was freed from her alternate self after she no longer needed her, thus breaking the spell. Returning home, she encountered her alternate self, who had been physically transported to her universe by America Chavez. After a brief fight, Maximoff empathized with her counterpart's grief and gave her solace that Billy and Tommy were loved.

===Family Life===
Maximoff moved to Westview, New Jersey in a single family house with her two sons, Tommy and Billy. She also had a pet hamster, Max. One day in 2024, she was making a chocolate dessert in the kitchen and they came in to see what she was doing. They put their hands in the bowl with the batter inside and Maximoff told them that she had told them earlier not to do so and then playfully told them to go wash their hands.Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
===Scarlet Witch's Multiversal Madness===
====Possessed by Her Alternate Self====
One evening, Maximoff told her children to get ready for bed and took their ice cream bowls. As she walked towards the sink, she saw the overhead light above the kitchen table flicker and sway, a picture of her move, and then felt a gust of wind that caused her to drop the bowls. As she made it to the window, she saw food in used plates move and water in a cup move like waves. She then looked up and saw a reflection of her alternate self in the window. Alarmed, she tried to not let her alternate self entrap her, but was not strong enough and became enthralled by her alternate self. 
Later, Maximoff was sleeping on the couch with her children, and became enthralled again by her alternate self. At the Illuminati Headquarters, her alternate self, using her body, was eventually confronted by Professor X, who reached into their mind in order to pull out Maximoff, thus breaking her alternate self's control. Unfortunately, her alternate self intervened and killed Professor X, sending Maximoff down into her subconscious once more. When finally awoke, she found herself in oil-stained wet clothing in the Gap Junction. Immediately thinking about her children, she flew out of the dimension and back into hers in order to return home.
====Meeting Her Alternate Self====
The next day, Maximoff came running downstairs to the living room after Tommy and Billy called out for her. She encountered her alternate self, Scarlet Witch, who was transported there by America Chavez through a portal from Dimension 616. As Maximoff tried to protect her sons, Scarlet Witch used her powers to effortlessly throw her aside, sending her crashing into the dining room. However, as Scarlet Witch then tried to take Tommy and Billy, their fear and resistance made her realize the errors of her ways. 
After Maximoff awakened from the impact, she struggled back towards her children, having not endured such physical trauma for so long. Tommy and Billy rushed to her side, and they all embraced. Seeing Scarlet Witch kneeling on the floor crying over the life she could never have, Maximoff approached her counterpart over her sons’ protests. Despite everything Scarlet Witch had done to her, Maximoff sympathetically caressed her cheek and told her counterpart that Tommy and Billy would be loved, encouraging her to find solace in that. Maximoff then returned to her family as America closed the portal.
==Personality==
Unlike her main counterpart, Maximoff is much more well-adjusted and cheerful. Despite wielding immense power, Maximoff shows no aggressive or selfish nature. This stems mainly from the love and comfort of her children, which she has shown an unwavering love and devotion to as she provides them just as much stability and love. Even when awakening in a surreal situation like being in the Gap Junction, her first instinct was to return to her children and to protect them. She is also very empathetic. Despite the horrible things her counterpart did to and through her, Maximoff was quick to be forgiving, realizing her counterpart's actions stemmed from a crippling loneliness.
==Powers==

**Chaos Magic: Able to harness Chaos Magic, Maximoff was the realization of the myth of the Scarlet Witch, a being capable of spontaneous creation.

****Psychic Energy Manipulation: Maximoff has the ability to create and manipulate psionic energy.
*****Telekinesis: Maximoff has the ability to move, levitate and otherwise manipulate objects using her psionic energy in a remote manner without the need for her energy to first be projected from her hands.

*****Levitation: Maximoff is able to use this power to move through the air and simulate flight. The use of this power manifests as a small blast of psionic energy expelled from her hands to propel herself up in the air.
