Origin
Billy Kaplan was the eldest of three sons born to Reform Jews Jeff Kaplan, a cardiologist, and Rebecca Kaplan, a psychologist.

Billy had trouble with bullies in school due to his sexuality and fanboyness. Once while sitting in front of Avengers Mansion, he briefly met the Scarlet Witch, his favorite Avenger. She gave him some words of encouragement and told him that he "could take care of himself". Billy took her advice and stood up to his bully, John Kesler. Unfortunately, Billy's electrokinetic powers emerged for the first time and nearly killed Kesler.

Young Avengers
Billy was one of the people listed together with his boyfriend Teddy Altman in the Program compiled by the Vision to be used to find those who could've been he and Wanda's dead children's reincarnation under the excuse of a team of Young Avengers.

Wiccan has a wide range of superpowers, derived from an unconfirmed source. His origins make it possible Wiccan is both Mage and mutant.
 * Powers                 =

Wiccan has demonstrated the following powers:


 * Reality Warping: Wiccan's main power is the superhuman ability to manipulate magical forces, which he inherited from his mother the Scarlet Witch. Wiccan uses his magic through a unique form of self-taught spell casting involving stating an effect or action he wants to happen (i.e. "I want him to be OK, I want him to be OK!"). Wiccan has no standard spells, with most being improvised on the spot. While generally very effective, his spells can be degraded by a lack of willingness to perform them or stress. Wiccan can use magic to enhance himself or others for short periods of time. Some notable spells being: Enhanced Strength, Sensing Locations of others, Levitation, Telepathy, Astral Projection, and Illusion Casting.
 * Electrokinesis: Can manipulate, generate and discharge energy projections as either lightning or electricity from his hands or other parts of his body.
 * Teleportation: Can teleport himself and others over undetermined distances with an untested maximum. Can also travel to and open gates accessing other worlds and dimensions.
 * Healing: Can quickly heal others through his spells (i.e. "I want to heal this man, I want to heal this man!"). However, the effectiveness of this healing can be greatly affected by his will to do it. When healing an enemy, the healing process could be considerably diminished than when healing someone he genuinely has an empathetic desire to heal.
 * Flight: Wiccan can engage in self-propelled flight without the use of vocalized spells and temporarily allow others to fly within his presence.
 * Photokinesis: Wiccan can project intense light and heat.
 * Solid Energy Constructs: Wiccan can manipulate mystical energy to create solid constructs such as disks, shields, force fields, and other projectiles.
 * Pyrokinesis: Can generate and control fire.
 * Clairvoyance: Wiccan, with brief periods of intense concentration, can gain knowledge of a subject's location. It is notably highly difficult, though not impossible for him to locate those he is unfamiliar with, or only loosely associated with.
 * Conjuring: Wiccan can create clothing, decor, and food from seemingly nothing.


 * Abilities              =
 * Strength               = Human, able to be augmented by magic and reality manipulation.
 * Weaknesses             = If Wiccan can't hear his spells, they don't work at all.


 * Equipment              =
 * Transportation         = Teleportation
 * Weapons                = * Billy previously carried a staff.


 * Notes                  =
 * Trivia                 = * It was long believed that Billy and Tommy Shepherd were reincarnations of the Scarlet Witch and the Vision's twin sons.
 * Wiccan first reached this conclusion after meeting Tommy, his identical twin except for the white hair. He based this on their names, appearances, Tommy's white hair and speed matching his "uncle" Pietro, and Billy's powers being similar to Wanda's.
 * The Scarlet Witch finally confirmed that Billy and Tommy are indeed her reincarnated children.
 * Hulkling (Teddy Altman) and Wiccan are in a romantic relationship.
 * Wiccan doesn't like the term "Warlock" being applied to him because it literally means "oath-breaker". He prefers mage, magician, witch, or spell-caster.
 * According to his teammate and boyfriend, Hulkling, Billy Kaplan learned his spell-casting abilities from a self-help book belonging to Hulkling's mother.
 * Billy is a fan of George R.R. Martin's book series A Song of Fire and Ice, as well as its TV series version, Game of Thrones, and Tyrion Lannister is his favorite character.
 * The Sound of Music is one of Billy's favorite films.
 * Wiccan's email is "actualwizard666@super-mail.com".
