## History

### Background

Agatha was a witch dating back to the Salem witch trials in 1693. However she was once accused of preforming dark magic, an act that violated the Salem Witch coven. However, during her own execution, Agatha's life-Force was nearly drained from her by the other Witches, even when she begged mercy for her life by her mother, but Evanora refused to listen. Angered, Agatha's magic activated and the witches' spell backfired on them. Instead, she drained their own life forces and began to beg her mother for help, despite killing seven witches, and that she could be good. However, Evanora knew her daughter could never change and tried to finish the spell herself until Agatha, in a fit of rage, did the same to her mother. Stealing a broach from her mother's corpse, Agatha flew away. Over the next 330 years, she lived through the ages.

## Trivia

* Fans knew that Agnes was **Agatha Harkness**, a witch from the comics who lived it through the fall of Atlantis and the Salem witch trials. Occasionally she would be an ally of the Fantastic Four and the mentor of Scarlet Witch.
	+ However, this is a major subversion, as the comic version of the real Agatha Harkness was more of an anti-hero than a straight on villain like the one depicted in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However this version of Agatha appears to be closer to her Ultimate counterpart, who was a villain and a common enemy of the Fantastic Four.
* People believe that Agatha Harkness was connected to Mephisto or Dormammu. Some would go on to believe that Agatha's husband "Ralph" is actually Mephisto in disguise.
