**Full name:**

Megan Gwynn

**Codename:**

Pixie

**Age:**

21

**From:**

Abergylid, Wales

**Mutations:**

"Fairy-like" wings protrude from Pixie's back, essentially making the girl capable of flight. Pixie's mutant abilities have also resulted in her body being perfectly suited for doing exactly that, toughening her skin, making her respiratory systems more efficient, and making her eyes more resistant to debris while flying.
Aside from this, Megan is able to produce spores from her wings which she refers to as "Pixie Dust". These can affect people in numerous ways if they are either breath in or come into contact with a persons, such as causing vivid hallucinations. These visions can't be controlled so who knows what you'll see if you're affected!

**Special skills:**

- Megan is adept at close quarters combat, especially with knives, which is what she uses goes into combat with.
- As fighting style goes, Megan is very skilled at Savate which uses the hands and feet as weapons combining elements of western boxing with graceful kicking techniques. She mixes this in with her knife work, which is surprisingly effective.
- While not essential, Megan has a degree in philosophy obtained from Stanford University.

**Background:**

Megan had a quiet childhood in the small mining village of Abergylid where nothing much ever happened to her. Her father worked down in the mine while her mother was a waitress in the local diner. She was around 11 when her powers kicked in, and while the growth of her wings came as a shock to her parents, they were accepting and vowed that they loved her no matter what. Growing up, Megan decided she didn't want to end up in some rundown town like her parents so sought to leave and venture to University.

When she was 18, Megan enrolled in Stanford University in America and soon traveled there in order to study Philosophy. Megan kept her mutant abilities secret throughout her time there, except for a few good friends. She worked hard, yet still found time to socialize, with her even using her "pixie dust" at parties as a quick way to get high. This all changed however in her final year when she was assaulted at a party by a guy from her course. After discovering her wings, he backed off immediately, calling her a freak, beating her instead of having his way with her.

The news of her mutation spread quickly around the campus, resulting in her life turning to hell. This gave Megan a valuable lesson on what the world was really like. A world where no one cared about what the guy had done to her, simply because she was a freak and therefore "deserved it" as everyone said. 

She was losing all hope in the world when the Project found her and offered her a chance to help make the world a better place. 

**Additional notes:**

- I opted to have Pixie having dyed her hair pink, rather than it being part of her mutation.
- I also decided to replace the use of her soul dagger with a general use of knives in combat. This could change if anything similar to the Limbo story-line that took place in the comics happened here.
- Following on from above, this means that Pixie also can't use magic either, although she has the potential.
- Despite everything which has happened to her, Pixie appears as a bubbly and excitable young woman, with her hiding her true emotions underneath a smile.
