[quote=@Meridian] Player Name: Meri Character: [b][i][color=7ea7d8]Pietro Maximoff[/color][/i][/b] Moral Alignment: Walking the Line Affiliation: The Avengers Character Origin and Backstory: [hider=Origins] Pietro and his twin sister Wanda were born to Sokovian business moguls Gregor and Daria Maximoff under stressful circumstances. Their delivery, due to mistakes on the doctor's part, led to their lives being in critical danger when they were just hours old. Renowned surgeon and scientist Von Strucker approached them shortly before the babies were expected to die, offering a miracle solution in return for an undisclosed sum of money (rest assured, it was ridiculously large) and custody of the children should anything happen to the Maximoffs. Daria was suspicious and reluctant, but the urgency of the situation made the couple capitulate and the children's lives were saved. Up until the age of eleven, the twins had a happy, healthy and luxurious life. Pietro was an inquisitive boy, interested in tinkering and taking things apart. He worked on small robots and programming, having access to the knowledge of world class researchers and developers in the related fields. Wanda was his protector, sharper and intimidating even at a younger age, and already priming herself for the rule of their parents empire once she was eighteen. The only person who received her softer side was her beloved Pietro. The two of them were closer than anything, and it was to each other they clung at their father's funeral. Doctors had declared his death to be due to heart failure, but after his passing, their mother became paranoid. Giving up temporary control of their business, she went into hiding with the children. They lived in a small cabin deep within the Sokovian forest until one day, about a year later, she died of pneumonia. Shortly after, the children met Von Strucker. He introduced himself as a distant uncle, estranged from their mother but eager to take care of his beloved sister's children. However, the fact that their meeting took place after they had been snatched from their cabin in the dead of night did little to inspire trust. For years, Von Strucker took relatively good care of them, but their loyalty remained exclusive to each other. When they turned fifteen, the nightmare began. They were subjected to awful and excruciating experiments that left them mentally scarred over the course of six months. At the end, they had barely survived. Pietro discovered his super speed, but Wanda was left comatose for months afterward.He recuperated while she remained unconscious, and in that time his anger and hatred of Von as trucker grew.[/hider] This isn't all, just don't want to lose my progress~ c: [/quote] I should point out the Avengers don't exist... as a team. As theres been nothing where S.H.I.E.L.D or anyone else has went "Well damn, we need a team" Though I think most of the Heroes have put room in their sheets to become an Avenger in the future :P
