Scarlet witch7/14/2023 Magneto arrived at the scene, and rescued Wanda from the villagers. One of them proclaimed her to be "a Scarlet Witch," which would later become her codename. Wanda accidentally set fire to an unnamed village with her powers, and was attacked by villagers. For the next few years, Wanda and Pietro wandered central Europe, living off the land. The circumstances of their separation from their clan were so traumatic that not until well into adulthood could they remember anything but the barest details of their childhood. Using his phenomenal speed, Pietro fled from the camp with his sister. Afflicted by poverty and the lack of opportunities to provide for his family, Django began to steal food for his starving family and enraged villagers attacked their caravan. Under their family's protection, Wanda explored her mystic potential freely while Pietro manifested an unusual superspeed power. The witches then returned Wanda to her family. The battle only ended once Wanda was able to manifest her hex powers for the first time, accidentally allowing Chthon to reach out to her soul and make it known that Wanda was not allowed to join any coven. However, servants of Chthon, Taboo and Damballah, interfered with Wanda's initiation. They hoped to recruit Wanda into their coven as an apprentice, being able to predict her future as a relevant magic wielder. Calderu approached Marya Maximoff and had her bring Wanda to Castle Russoff. Wanda's potential for magic eventually attracted the attention of a powerful coven formed by Margali Szardos, Maria Russoff, and Lilia Calderu. Wanda and Pietro lived a happy childhood, constantly travelling alongside their foster parents' tribe in Central and Eastern Europe. Instead, a disappointed Evolutionary returned the babies to Django and Marya Maximoff. However, the former fled in desperation while the latter perished after a miscarriage. Bova and the Evolutionary attempted to have the twins to be adopted by World War II heroes Whizzer and Miss America. From that moment on, she acquired a natural latent talent for the practice of magic. While under the Evolutionary's care, the newborn Wanda Maximoff was imbued with the mystic energies of the Wundagore Mountain, which was in fact a prison for the demon-lord of chaos known as Chthon. The babies were nursed by one of the Evolutionary's servants, the humanoid cow and midwife Bova. The High Evolutionary made alterations to the twins' genomes, disguising them as regular mutants. When the High Evolutionary and his Knights ravaged the region where the Maximoffs lived in search of babies for his experiments, the twins were kidnapped by a catholic priest and brought to the Evolutionary's citadel on the Wundagore Mountain, in Transia. Afraid of harming her children due to her perilous lifestyle, Natalya Maximoff placed the babies under the care of her brother, the ventriloquist Django, and his wife, the gentle Marya. Wanda Maximoff and her twin brother, Pietro, were born to a nomadic Romani witch named Natalya near Novi Pazar, in Serbia.
