KNOWN POWERS:

PROBABILITY FIELD ALTERATION: The Scarlet Witch's power 
sometimes seems magical, but is actually a result of her 
mutation. In her younger days, the mutation seemed to act 
without conscious effort, but was unfocused. Minor disasters and 
events would occur which helped her and her allies in their 
efforts, but in a way in which she would have no forewarning. 
Her opponents would trip, or hardware they were using would 
short out, etc. Now that she is older she can focus her powers 
and consciously disrupt probability fields at a Remarkable rank 
so that very unlikely events occur. This does not affect an 
event that is impossible; she cannot create obstacles from 
nothing or simply make hardware disappear. When the Scarlet 
Witch uses her power the player must describe precisely what 
effect is desired (such as "I wish to hex the Toad so that the 
room ices up and he cannot gain enough traction to hop"), and 
the Judge determines what actual results are achieved. To use 
the power the player must make a successful Psyche FEAT roll. If 
the Scarlet Witch is trying to alter probabilities around 
unnatural materials or energies, such as complex alloys or force 
fields, her Psyche suffers a -1 CS when making the FEAT roll.

MAGIC: Wanda has always been thought of by many as a magic 
wielder but this was a misrepresentation of her powers by 
others, a misunderstanding which she fostered. Recently she has 
sought to increase her knowledge of the arcane arts by studying 
with an actual witch, Agatha Harkness. Wanda has cast Eldritch 
Bolts, summoned Shields, and even reformed a destroyed book, 
but whether she actual has any long term working knowledge of 
these spells is as yet unknown. 
Wanda has taken on a young female disciple to learn from her but 
as yet has not really been able to teach her anything. Only time 
will tell if Wanda can be a top-rated magic-wielder or not.

TALENTS: Wanda has some occultist training. She has a +2 Column 
Shift when researching or dealing with occult events or cults.

CONTACTS: Wanda once belonged to the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants 
but renounced evil and became a member of the Avengers. She has 
contacts with her husband, the Vision, and members of the 
Avengers and West Coast Avengers. She has also met and worked 
with Spider-Man.

RUNNING SCARLET WITCH: Wanda has always been optimistic and 
handles her responsibilities and powers quite well. She tends 
towards modesty and is extremely loyal to her brother, her 
husband, and her friends, the Avengers. She and the Vision are 
currently taking an extended leave of absence from the Avengers 
for a number of reasons. If and when they will return is unknown 
at this time.
