Marvel Character Spotlight: Pixie


Megan Gwynn was a normal Welsh teenager...except that she was actually a mutant. When she was in an accident involving her bike and a car, she manifested rainbow colored wings that allowed her to fly. She enrolled in the Xavier Institute under the name of Pixie and worked under Wolfsbane.

After the events of M-Day, she was one of the 27 students to not lose her powers.

In the events of Limbo, she used her other powers for the first time, releasing a "pixie dust" that gave hallucinations to the demons attacking the small group of students that she was with, including Blindfold, a girl she didn't like much. The mutant hero Magik took part of Pixie's soul, which left black magic in the hole, making her much less innocent than she had previously been, including the turning of her pink hair partially black.

Pixie was to be taught by Doctor Strange in the ways of the mystical arts.

She had many issues with her teleportation powers that she learned from Magik, as well, and was there when Professor X was killed.

Her wings now appear dead and blackened.

For the full story on Pixie, take a look around the Marvel Database page on her. There are some good pictures.
See you next Sunday for another Marvel Character Spotlight.
