How did you discover your powers: Bethany's family were all mutants, her father, brother and mother were when she was on her way home when she was fifteen years old, Bethany's powers hadn't manifested yet. There was a group of Purifiers that had been harassing them for several weeks now. The evening was pretty uneventful until around 10PM that night, they came in and started to attack. They set her house on fire, her father burned to death that night and when they all came out, the group of men that were there started to beat her mother and brother to death.
They held her down and made her watch helplessly as they did that, and then they started to beat her as well until her powers manifested, shadowy tendrils surrounded her. She ended up killing all of them, Beth was the only survivor that night, when the police arrived they brought her in though she didn't have any immediate family that would take her in.
Why did you choose the side that you did?: Bethany didn't have anywhere else to go, she spent about two years living in an orphanage. She was tired of being ridiculed and made fun of by both the staff and other kids her age for being a mutant, luckily she had her license and enough money to buy a car from her parents. One night Beth decided to just up and leave, she traveled up to Pittsburgh area for awhile and lived there before Professor Xavier came into the picture and offered her a place to stay. And to further develop her powers more, which she said yes not wanting to be alone anymore and to find a place that would accept for who she is.
General History: Bethany was born in Roanoke Virginia, her entire family were all mutants, her mother, father and younger brother. Growing up Bethany was actually a very friendly person and had quiet a lot of friends, she was very smart and did good in school and always got good grades. She was also very close to her mother, and always watched her and helped her out around the house whenever she needed it. Then she turned fifteen that was when her life turned upside down completely, and after that she spent her time in an orphanage.
Life in the orphanage wasn't good for her either, being a mutant wasn't easy for her either and went into a shell and became antisocial with those around her. Until one night she had enough, she was old enough to leave on her own, and she had the money from her parents when they died. She bought a car, and drove off, Bethany moved to the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania area where she ended up falling into a gang and being a mutant was helpful for them.
Bethany did various things from stealing money, or even threatening a few people to get money, which she was good at Beth lived mostly in her car. Then she bumped into Professor Xavier the two talked for awhile in a coffee shop, and offered her a place to settle in Beth didn't want to live in her car or steal to make a living. Beth eventually took up the offer, and decided to make her way over there to the X-Mansion. Though Beth wasn't apart of any of the missions with the Brotherhood, she stayed focused more on her studies and also how to further control her abilities and power.
