Origin

 * Powers =
 * Probability Manipulation: The Scarlet Witch possesses the mutant power of affecting probability fields. By a combination of gestures and mental concentration, she creates a hex-sphere, a finite pocket of reality-disrupting quasi-psionic force, which upon reaching its intended target, causes disturbance in the molecular-level probability field surrounding the target. Thus, unlikely phenomena will occur. She has to calculate the mathematical probability that the effect she intends to create will actually happen; the more unlikely the effect, the more complex the mathematic formula, and the more difficult and time-consuming it will be to make the effect happen. Among the many phenomena she is able to cause are: the sudden melting of gun barrels, the spontaneous combustion of any flammable object, the rapid rust or decay of various organic and inorganic materials, the poltergeist-like deflection of an object in flight, the sudden evacuation of air from a given volume, the disruption of energy transmissions and fields, and so on. These phenomena occur practically instantaneously after the completion of her hex. She can override the powers of others who can control probability.
 * Flight
 * Teleportation
 * Transfiguration
 * Simulated Telekinesis
 * Force Fields
 * Healing


 * Superhuman Intelligence: Scarlet Witch is extremely intelligent (at superhuman levels) and has remarkable calculating abilities. This power aids her when she must calculate probabilities to access her primary, probability power.  She also has a photographic memory and can recall anything she has ever known.  Her ability to calculate probabilities at incredible speeds also cause Scarlet Witch to seem clairvoyant.
 * Sorcery: Wanda is also a living focal point for the earth's magic. Her sorcerous training with Agatha Harkness is separate from her mutant ability of probability (science). But the mixture of the two makes her considerably more powerful than just using her probability powers. She has a special affinity for the natural elements and materials that true witches utilize in their spells: the four alchemical elements, wood, organic substances, etc. Her sorcery skill allow her to tap this universe's infinite store of ambient magical energy and manipulate these to a variety of effects. A skill derived from three major sources: personal powers of the mind/soul/body, powers gained by tapping the universe's ambient magical energy and employing it for specific effects and finally, powers gained through the tapping of extra-dimensional energy by invoking entities or objects of power existing in mystical dimensions tangential to her own. The latter means of power is usually gained by the recitation of incantations. She can cast spells for a variety of effects including to (but not limited to) the following:
 * Astral Projection
 * Telepathy
 * Illusions
 * Hypnotism
 * Mystic Bolts
 * Transmutation
 * Telekinesis
 * Teleportation
 * Standard Shields
 * Dimensional Travel
 * Conjuring of objects
 * Elemental Manipulation
 * Size Alteration
 * Super Strength
 * Mystical Invulnerability

Scarlet Witch possesses the strength of a normal human female who engages in intensive regular exercise. Through sorcery, she can increase her strength to unknown levels. }}
 * Abilities =
 * Expert Knowledge of Sorcery: Wanda was trained by Agatha Harkness in witchcraft. Her sorceress training has given her a set of powers separate from her mutant abilities, as well as honed her control over her existing mutant, probability abilities. Agatha has given Wanda a vast knowledge of sorcerous spells, extensive knowledge of mystical lore, and incantations invoking names and aspects of various extra-dimensional objects and beings of power. Through these incantations, as a magi, Wanda is able to call upon these extra-dimensional power sources for very specific effects without taxing the personal abilities.
 * Expert Combatant: Wanda has also been trained in hand-to-hand combat by numerous Acolyte/Brotherhood members and Avengers members such as Captain America.
 * Expert Tactician: Between her ability to quickly calculate the probability of certain outcomes and experience as a co-leader for the Brotherhood of Mutants and experience as an Avenger, Wanda has great tactical abilities.
 * Strength =
 * Weaknesses =
 * Perception Range: Her range of hex-casting was limited by her line of sight. (She couldn't watch a live television broadcast and cause a hex-phenomenon to occur at its point of origin.)
 * Physical Condition: Hexes had a degree of unreliability, which was further affected by her physical condition: when well rested, in good health, and mentally and emotionally alert, Scarlet Witch could cast numerous hex-spheres in rapid succession and attain desirable results for almost an hour.
 * Overextension: Despite this enhanced precision, her hexes were not necessarily guaranteed to work, particularly if she had been straining herself or using her powers excessively. If overextended, her hexes could backfire, causing probability to work against her wishes or to undo previous hexes.
 * Notes =
 * Wanda and her twin, Pietro, were artificially made in a lab using the DNA of Erik Lehnsherr, Charles Xavier, and Amelia Kinross, with all three once being college friends who were interested in genetic possibilities/advancements. Since Charles and Amelia already had, by accident, a son named David Kinross, the three decided that they wanted to see how other combinations of their DNA would result.  Therefore, the three of them made great technological advances in medicine before the tech hit mainstream.  Through a new procedure, they decided to use one of Amelia's egg cells by removing her DNA from the egg and replacing it with the DNA from one of Erik's sperm cells.  Then Amelia inserted her DNA into the left over sperm cell.  Afterwards, she inserted her "sperm cell" and one of Charles' sperm cells into the ovum, which resulted in a triploidy, and then she split the ovum in two.  This procedure resulted in Sesquizygotic twins (aka semi or half-identical twins) because they share the exact same "maternal" DNA from Erik but different "paternal" DNAs.  Wanda had Amelia's DNA, while Pietro had Charles' DNA.  They had decided to make half-identical twins so that Wanda and Pietro would share 50% of their DNA like normal siblings.  Amelia then implanted the two ovums into Erik's wife Isabelle, who thought she was having appendix surgery so that she wouldn't realize their experiment, to act as a surrogate mother.  With David, Pietro, and Wanda, they had a mixture of all 3 of their DNA.
