FULL NAME:
ALIASES: Speedy, Speed-boy, Quicky
CODENAMES: Quicksilver
AGE: 22
PLAY BY: Optional

Over all Appearance: Pietro stands at 6"0' evenly, he is fit and strong with the additional help from his super human strengh. Where he easily manages to pass over a human's strength limit, which is explained in the previous area with his powers. His eyes are deep in a blue hue. And his uniform is green in color with a white lightning that curves diagonally from his right arm down to the left side of his waste. He has white gloves and as well as white boots to finish it off.

Something noticeable about Quicksilver is his silver and white colored hair. It is one of the most obvious ways of recognizing him. In addition to this he has several terrigen mist crystal shards, that are lodged into his chest that he had while he was visiting the Inhuman race. They tend to shine a deep blue when he using them or they are activated.

LIKES: Talking fast, being with Wanda or the other Avenger members, confusing people with his powers, having a nice long run (Without his powers), visiting other family members.

DISLIKES: His father for treating him and his sister so harshly, Humans (Well only a few), Rude people, not having powers, people who are slow, very slow.

FEARS: Being compared with by his father, being his father, Loosing his powers, loosing family members

Over all personality: Pietro is a rather taklative and social mutant, he is not afraid to get into conversations or get others to speak up if they've been quiet for some time. Though if he is quiet, that usually means something is bothering him or he is in deep thought. In addition to this he has found a close bond to his twin sister Wanda. Even though Wanda sees him as an older Brother he thinks they are more even in a way. They both look out for each other after all he promised that he would always protect her.

Several flaws in his personality is that he is very protective, he will often hardly leave his sister's side and will make sure she is safe no matter what the cause. Even if she is safe he will constantly be near for her to check on him, and sometimes this is a bit annoying. He also has this other flaw of being rather stubborn, he has obeyed much of his father's commands but when he sees something that he doesn't like or doesn't feel like it is right, he will do whatever he can to make sure it goes his way. This often leads to his downfall if he is not careful, and only is blinded by his stubborness. Also thanks to his powers, Pietro can process and think things much faster in his brain, often catching things that go about his speed or often what others miss. These tiny details can often provide him help in fighting or other areas.

HISTORY: Pietro and his sister Wanda were living a quiet life in Transian country side since they were infants. Unaware that their father was currently the famous mutant that would one day be known as Magneto. They lived with the Maximoff family for awhile, until they were developing their powers. They were done developing their powers, Pietro had gained the gift of super human speed, and his sister Wanda had the power over hexing and Magic. It wasn't long before the family got desperate in the times and their father had gone into stealing. It fed the family for awhile, but it wasn't long before the towns people found out and soon grew in size in order to chase the family out.

As the crowd gathered, Pietro fled with Wanda into the country side with incredible speed, never to look back at where they had once lived. For several years now, they lived out on the country side living and fending for themselves. However when they came to visit one of the towns that was there, Wanda accidently let loose her ability of the Hexing powers and caught one of the buildings on fire. The supersticious towns people once again started to crowd up and gather in numbers in order to attack Wanda, who they had thought of as a Witch. As Quicksilver tried to defend themselves, he was slowly loosing as the crowd over powered them. As soon as it was about to get out of hand, Magneto had arrived after hearing what was going on, and saved Wanda before anything bad had happened to her. And with this, he made Wanda and Pietro join in on his villianous team, he also suited them up with a costume of their own and gave them code names where they were now caleld Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch. At the time they were serving Magneto for only out of fear, they did not want to serve the mutant that they didn't even know as their father.

Once after Magneto had been defeated Pietro and Wanda soon started to look for the Avengers in hopes that they would be able to join them. After some consideration they finally were able to join after Tony Stark's consideration. It wasn't long before Pietro asked for the Captain to train him in hand to hand combat skills after realizing that his abilities were lacking and he needed better skills. After being with the team for some time he lost to a fight with one of the Sentinels and was heavily wounded. Pietro was later found by a member of the inhumans who was named Crystal. She took him in and nursed Quicksilver back to health. It was going to be several months before he would be able to contact the Avengers again to tell them of their status and in that time he had developed a relationship with Crystal.

It was several months after that he married her and the two fell in love. However he lost his powers during the destruction of M-day and was desperate to get his powers back. Though he tried to talk to the inhumans about trying the terrigen mists, they refused to let him in. Finally after another try he snuck in to see if it would work and was disappointed to see nothing at first. It wouldn't be long before he realized that Crystal had been in an affiar with another man and left her, without saying another word and returned to the Avengers with a small stash of terrigen crystals that he stole. There he soon discovered the abilites that the terrigen crystals had given him as they enhanced his abilities and as well as given him new ones. So far he has remained with the Avengers and hasn't seen Crystal ever since.

Since then PIetro has returned to the Avengers where he would eventually meet an X-Men named Carol Evergreen. it seemed upon first sight that they have come to like each other quiet a bit and he has opened up to her. With that they became close in boyfriend and girlfriend relationship. But so far it seems that is about as far as they have gotten.

POWERS: Powers: Speed Physiology: Pietro's body is adapted towards the rigors of his high speeds. His cardiovascular system and his respiratory system are many times more efficient than those of a regular human. The chemical processes of Quicksilver's musculature is so highly enhanced, that his body does no generate fatigue poisons, the normal locomotion would, thus requiring him to rest. Rather his body expells waists through exhalation. His joints are smoother and more lubricant and more efficiently than a regular human's. His bones contain an unknown strength that is more durable than calcium in order to withstand the dynamic shocks of his feet touching the ground at speeds that a normal human could never withstand. His reaction time is several times faster and the speed at which his brain processes information is heightened to a level that is similar to his bodily speed, enabling him to percieve his surroundings while traveling at high velocities. Quicksilver's lacyrmose is more viscious than normal, thus preventing rapid evaporation and replenishment of surface fluids on his eye balls under the influence of high wind velocity to occlude his vision.

Superhuman speed: Quicksilver is capable of running at the speed of sound, or 770 miles per hour. He has sufficient energy reserves that enable him to run at this average speed for several hours, before reducing his speed to replenish his body's store of energy. Quicksilver has used his powers for various feats, he has plucked an arrow out of the air before it hit its target, and has dodgegd macine gun-fire. He has also created cyclone gust like winds, which are strong enough to knock a man off his feet. He has demonstrated that he has been able to run across a body of water such as he Alantic Ocean without having to stop. He can also run up the sides of buildings since he does have friction effects.

Molecular Destabilization: Since the beginning of having developed his powers, his speed has given him many abilities. One very particular one was being able to vibrate his molecular structure at high speeds. He demonstrated the full effect of this power to destabilize atomic matter by accelorating the molecules, causing them to fall apart or explode while touching it.

Super Human strength: Pietro possesses super human strength in his lower body due to his adaptation for running. With his upper body, he can lift 1000 pounds while his legs can press 1 ton.

Super human Durability: He is capable of resisting tremendous strength impact forces that could easily crush or kill a human without suffering external serious injuries

WEAKNESSES:Stubborn: Pietro is stubborn much like his father was, he has a problem not listening to others and will often go his own way. This usually leads to his turmoil if he does not think things over.

Resting: Pietro has a limit of how often he can use his powers at once. If he strains himself too much while using them he will get very tired and will be forced to rest. The longest of time that he has known to travel was about eighteen hours before having to stop completely, and rest.

Family: Until recently Pietro has denounced his father and wants nothing to do with the man. He has broken promises, wasn't even around when the twins were young, and have always harmed his teammates and remaining family. So with one final spit of rage he denounced his father before leaving him for good. So with that in mind, Pietro isn't very interested in bringing up his family to others so soon. It has a few sharp thorns that are left in his heart that created wounds which never healed.
