Quicksilver, King of Speed

My name's Pietro Maximoff. I'm faster than you and smarter than you. Don't piss me off.

Headcanon

This rp is just for fun and will not match up with comic books exactly. However, the following is true in this rp. Some of this is directly from Wanda’s page but they are twins.

Past

  • Wanda and her brother are in their late 20s but I’m hesitant to give an official number.
  • Wanda and her brother were raised by Marya and Django Maximoff until they were around their early teens.
  • He did run away briefly after an argument with his adoptive father after overhearing he was adopted but stayed close by. When his sister was attacked by a local boy, Pietro quickly came to her aid. Django made Pietro promise to always look out for Wanda and confirmed that she was his real sister. (real comic book canon, I liked to story so it’s canon here too)
  • When Pietro discovered his father was stealing, he decided to steal an even greater amount to make his father proud. It was this action that would draw the townsfolk to attack their family.
  • When an angry mob attacked their village in retaliation of Django’s and Pietro’s stealing. Due to Wanda’s magic Pietro and her survived but Marya was killed.
  • For years the two traveled around Eastern Europe trying to fend for themselves while trying to come to terms with their powers. Both of them have repressed memories of this time and don’t remember it fully.
  • Eventually, Wanda was nearly killed by another angry mob when Magneto saved her. This lead them to join The Brotherhood and he held it over their heads for years to keep them from leaving.
  • Wanda and Pietro left for a short time and went back to Transia where they were reunited with their adoptive father. However, the demon, Chthon, possessed Wanda. With the efforts of Django and the other gypsies, Wanda was able to be freed but at the cost of Django’s life.
  • Shortly after, Magneto came to collect them. Pietro initially refused until Magneto promised Pietro to have someone help Wanda with her power (which had been going haywire since the demon possession.) He convinced Wanda to agree and she was taught under Agatha Harkness.
  • A little over a year ago, Wanda became increasingly unhappy being apart of the Brotherhood and talked with her brother about leaving. After a particularly devastating attack from the X-men leaves the Brotherhood fractured, Wanda sees her chance to leave and agrees to meet her brother in a few days. He never shows up due to an unfortunate incident that maybe elaborated later.
  • Although he escapes after a week, the incident convinces him that Wanda is better off without him because she has always been able to blend in better than he could. He then spread the rumors of his death thinking that would get her to stop looking and have a normal life.
  • He spends eight months living in the Savageland before deciding to go back to the newly reformed Brotherhood. He stays there briefly before he refuses to carry out an order of Magneto’s and threatens to leave. It was then that Magneto reveals that he is Pietro’s father and Pietro leaves wanting nothing more to do with the man.
  • Pietro spends the next few months hiding from Magneto in various places across the globe. He spent one month with a  fake psychic in Montana before seeing Wanda on the front page of new paper. Worried, he decided to head to New York.
  • After trailing Wanda for a few days and finding out she was an Avenger, he made his presence known after seeing Wanda and Clint on their first date. He was displeased.

Random Headcanon and Traits

  • Pietro is quite intelligent but doesn’t waste time learning things that aren’t relevant or important. Think like in BBC’s Sherlock where Sherlock doesn’t know the earth revolves around the sun because it’s not relevant.
  • Pietro does know that the earth revolves around the sun. XD
  • For that same reason, he hasn’t watched many movies or television shows.
  • Pietro didn’t like that book of Greek myths Wanda once had because she read it all the time and didn’t pay attention to him. He might of had a hand in it’s disappearance…
  • Pietro is gay and had a crush on Hawkeye before his sister began dating him. While those feelings most likely remain, Clint has been testing the limits of his patience lately and he wouldn’t do something to hurt his sister.
  • He secretly does like My Little Pony.
  • Although weirded out and confused by the alternate universe versions of his nephews and daughter he does try to be nice to them and is developing a bit of a soft spot for them. If they are threatened he will react.
  • Pietro is very protective of his sister and often scared her suitors away in the Brotherhood. He may have chucked them off a cliff several times until the never thought of looking at her again.
