w e i g h t x // x53kg / 117lbs
h a i r x // xDepending on the light, it can look anywhere from strawberry red to ginger, contrasting Petra's pale skin. She keeps it long and in waves that fall loosely over one shoulder, although she'll take the time to braid it if she's feeling fancy.
e y e s x // xDeep hazel, and often ringed in makeup, Petra's gaze is expectant and assessing. Occasionally, when she's using her powers, her irises may glow a dark red.
o d d i t i e s x // xHer arms and back are marked with a myriad of scars that have faded with time to barely visible slashes. She has a number of piercings in both ears (graduated lobe piercing in both, and a double helix piercing on the left) which are often filled with a collection of silver studs and rings. She also sports a tattoo in the form of a geometric circle design on her right forearm.
a p p e a r a n c e x // xPetra holds herself with all the rigidity and discipline of an army general, her back ramrod straight, chin level, shoulders pushed back, all of which give her much more height and presence than her smaller-than-average frame offers. For all her beauty, though, her resting bitch face is undeniable, turning a powerful glare on anyone unfortunate enough to cross her path. She takes some measure of pride in always presenting her best self; her makeup is never less than flawless, and she'll dress up even if she's just walking a few blocks to the grocery store. She enjoys experimenting with various outfits, but one of her staples is heels so high she could stab an eye out with them. She's mostly rejected her mother's costumes over the years, but she's allowed herself to keep the cape, which feels like a physical manifestation of the title that she inherited from her mother—an actual mantle of sorts, if you will.

p s i o n i c x e n e r g y x m a n i p u l a t i o nx // x The ability to project energy blasts, waves, and bolts through her psionic abilities that manifest as red outlines of "spheres of influence" in any shape and form.
l e v i t a t i o n x // x Through skillful manipulation of her energy blasts, she can levitate and, on good days, even use this energy to guide her around, effectively allowing her to fly.
f o r c e x f i e l d x g e n e r a t i o n x // x The ability to create a highly durable barrier of energy that shapes and deforms as she requires it to.
t e l e k i n e s i s x // x The ability to mentally move, levitate, and manipulate objects, as well as molecules and particles allowing her to control matter, energy, and physical forces.
t e l e p a t h y x // x The ability to read minds, mentally communicate with others, experience memories and thoughts of others, or project her thoughts into others' minds.
m e n t a l x m a n i p u l a t i o n x // x With the same neuro-electric interface that gives her telepathy, she can deploy a type of illusory hypnosis that allows her targets to experience their surroundings through all their senses that seem real, though they are only hallucinations. For weaker-minded targets, she is able to use this power to control their actions. She may manipulate the memories, thoughts, actions, emotions, and senses of others at will, as well as induce sleep or pain.
p r o b a b i l i t y x m a n i p u l a t i o n x // x The ability to manipulate the chances of an event happening, making unlikely events happen more often and preventing liable events from happening. Also known as enhanced good luck.
P R O F I C I E N C I E S
m a g i c x t r a n s c e n d e n c e x // x The ability to transcend the rules of magic under which she operates.
k n o w l e d g e x o f x m a g i c x // x The ability to learn any type of magic quickly, often instantly.
e n h a n c e d x h e a l i n g x // x Her magic allows her to heal at a much quicker rate than a normal person.
e n h a n c e d x l e a r n i n g x // x Telepathy allows her to pick up skills and knowledge quickly by drawing it out of the minds of others. She's also able to process and gain knowledge at a faster rate than the average person. However, it does not eliminate the necessity practice on her part to understand the skill completely.
s k i l l x t r a n s f e r e n c e x // x Owing to her telepathy and mental manipulation skills, she is able to extend the personal effects of her magic (such as enhanced healing) to another person; this skill requires her to be in physical contact with the other person.
l i n g u i s t x // x She speaks Chinese, Japanese, French, Gaelic, and several Romani dialects.
W E A K N E S S E S
m e n t a l x c l a m o u r x // x Her telepathy means that there's constantly a lot of noise going on in her head, of all the unguarded thoughts that fly around unbidden, and though she works at shutting her mind to them when she doesn't want to hear them, she hasn't made much progress on this front. She has a tendency to develop migraines on bad days.
e n e r g y x l e v e l x // x Magic saps her energy relatively quickly, and she tires easily.

l o s i n g x c o n t r o l x // x The sheer strength of her powers has been imposed on her countless times, and she's terrified of not being able to control them, or losing control to her emotions.
a e r o p l a n e s x // x It seems absolutely stupid when she's capable of flight herself, but it's not the flying that scares her, it's the thought of being suspended in a giant hunk of metal in the air. She'd rather take charge of her own flying.

She has strong opinions on almost everything, but doesn't voice many of them, mostly because she thinks sharing them is irrelevant. However, she readily speaks her mind if she notices any mistakes, or decides that things can be better—and she's very good at seeing imperfections. She's a perfectionist by nature, and her strong, firmly fixed morals dictate not only how she lives her life, but the changes that she can make to her surroundings to better any situation. This often comes off as bossy, but in Petra's defense, her desire to take control of every aspect of her life is justified.
Petra is the epitome of hardworking, her perfectionism driving her to try again and again until she understands and executes her job perfectly, sometimes even refusing to eat or sleep until she's gotten it just right, often to her own detriment. Her iron grip on her magic is a result of this control, and she never settles for anything less than a perfect display of what she can do. She works best at night, left to her own devices and concentration.
She keeps everyone at a distance, often lacking the effort to truly understand and get to know others because she thinks she can manage just as well on her own. Her independence and headstrong attitude often leave her lacking in support when she needs it, though, so regardless of what she tells herself, she needs a few good friends to help keep her in check, and to make sure that she doesn't overwork herself, or generally end up appearing to be too short in her interactions. No man is an island, after all, despite any reasons she might use to justify her mostly solitary existence. Her emotional barrier hides the fact that she's a deeply loyal friend, with strong morals and a protective streak a mile wide. Should anyone break through her defenses, they'd learn that she's a really good friend, willing to do anything within her capacity to look after them, and always ready with a witty remark or joke that would surprise anyone if they heard it coming from her.

Nine months passed, and Wanda had the child she wanted so badly, a beautiful little girl that she named in the memory of her brother. From the start, it was clear that Petra shared her mother's powers, little crackles forming at the infant's fingertips whenever she was feeling particularly feisty—or fussy. When she developed motor skills and started toddling around her playroom, she learned to pick up things with her magic. She started small, with wooden blocks and stuffed toys, and as she grew learned to handle the weight of heavier targets.
But her power also manifested in terrifying, often uncontrollable ways. For the most part, she was a well-behaved child, but when she got into her tantrums her emotions would take over, and she'd lose active control of her abilities. On good days, she'd just levitate a few feet in the air, thrashing and kicking and screaming as little kids are wont to do; but on bad days, things would fall off the shelves, and people could get hurt—usually the person who'd caused the tantrum, but on a few occasions innocent bystanders. Wanda was terrified that Petra would eventually lose control of herself, and focused herself on teaching her daughter to rein her abilities in, to understand her powers and control them intricately.
That was easier said than done. Petra proved herself to be as passionate and fiery as her hair, and took failure hard. Having understood her mother's warnings of the destructive effects of her magic when turned outward, Petra switched instead to taking her anger out on herself, her powers turning inward to form physical injuries in the form of scratches and cuts, sometimes to the bone. It was as if a second Petra was present, one that was invisible but actively contributed to hurting Petra, the way she'd just simmer with rage and cuts would split her skin right open.
It took a long time, but Petra eventually gained control, and the day came when the last cut sealed itself shut and another one never formed in its place. That was the day Wanda breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she could let Petra take over her position. Her job mostly done, Wanda decided that it would be beneficial to Petra to allow her to learn more about her magic among her peers, instead of isolated with just her mother (and Vision, whom she could not truly hurt). The damage was done, though—terrified of losing control, Petra built a barrier around her emotions, sealing herself away for years. She would go on to become a brilliant Scarlet Witch, but she'd allow few people to know who she truly was, under the title she carried.
